Alkenylstannanes reactions

The reaction of alkenyl iodides or triflates, alkenylstannanes, and CO affords divinyl ketones[397,398]. Thus the capnellene skeleton 538 has been synthesized by the carbonylation of the cyclopentenyl triflate 536 with the alkenyltin 537[392], The macrocyclic divinyl ketone 540 has been prepared in a moderate yield by the carbonylative cyclization of 539[399]. 

The intramolecular coupling of organostannanes is applied to macrolide synthesis. In the zearalenone synthesis, no cyclization was observed between arylstannane and alkenyl iodide. However, intramolecular coupling take.s place between the alkenylstannane and aryl iodide in 706. A similar cyclization is possible by the reaction of the alkenylstannane 707 with enol triflate[579]. The coupling was applied to the preparation of the bicyclic 1,3-diene system 708[580]. 

The intramolecular insertion of an internal alkyne into an aryl or alkenyl halide 727 generates aryl- or alkenylpalladium as an intermediate, which is trapped with an organozinc or organostannane to give 728. Overall cis addition to the alkyne takes place[595,596]. The reaction of the alkenylstannane 730 with the 2-bromomethylfuran 729 is used for the introduction of a prenyl group[597]. 

Transmetalalions of alkenylstannanes with copper sails are reversible if they ate perfotcned witli CuCl in polar solvents [101], Tliis has found application in cycli-zahon reactions fScheme 2.49) [102],... 

Alkenylstannanes react with 1,1-dibromoalkenes to give enynes.204 These reactions are thought to involve elimination of the elements of HBr prior to reductive elimination. 

Lewis acid-catalyzed hydrostannylation has been observed using ZrCl4. With terminal alkynes the Z-alkenylstannane is formed.142 These reactions are probably similar in mechanism to Lewis acid-catalyzed additions of silanes (see p. 811). 

Using the olefination reactions mediated by CrCl2137, Hodgson prepared E-alkenylstannanes of the type 57138 ... 

The stannacyclopentadienes (stannoles) can be regarded as a special group of alkenylstannanes. In the past they have been prepared by reactions similar to those which are used for acyclic alkenylstannanes, for example, by the reaction of LiPhC=CPh-CPh=CPhLi with Me2SnCl2. In recent years, however, some methods have been developed that are special to the cyclic compounds, and involve transition metal chemistry. 

Addition reactions at the alkyne bonds are dealt with in the section on alkenylstannanes that are produced. The alkynyl-tin bond is more readily cleaved by both electrophiles and nucleophiles than is the alkenyl- or alkyl-tin bond. Strong electrophiles such as halogens or halogen acids attack at the z/Mzi-position of the triple bond to give a /3-stannyl cation that is stabilized by C-Sn hyperconjugation, but this is followed by cleavage of the C-Sn bond (Equation (83)). 

As well as alkenylstannanes [106-108], other classes such as a-heteroatom-substituted alkyltributylstannanes [109] and, more importantly, allylic stannanes [110, 111] also undergo these Sn-Cu transmetalations. Otherwise difficult to prepare, allylic copper reagents may, however, be obtained by treatment of allylic stannanes (produced in turn from organolithium, magnesium, or zinc organometallics) with Me2CuLi LiCN. They enter into cross-coupling reactions with alkyl bromides [110] or vinyl triflates (Scheme 2.52) [111]. 

A 1,2-metalate rearrangement of a higher order cuprate, known as a Kodenski rearrangement [64], was used as a key step in the synthesis of the marine antiinflammatory sesterterpenoid manoalide 95 (Scheme 9.20) [65]. Treatment of the alkenyl lithium 89 (prepared from the alkenylstannane 88 with s-BuLi in a diethyl ether-pentane mixture) with the homocuprate 91 (produced from iodoalkane 90) gave the iodoalkene 94 in 72% overall yield from 88. The reaction proceeds as fol-... 

One of the first cross-coupling reactions performed on solid supports was the Stille reaction [250] which is a paUadium-catalyzed reaction of a trialkylaryl or trialkylalkenyl stannane with an aromatic iodide, bromide or triflate. In contrast to the process in liquid-phase, the organotin reagent is easily removed from the solid-phase because of the subsequent washing processes. Immobilized aryl halides have been frequently coupled with aryl and alkenylstannanes, whereas stan-nanes attached to the solid support have been used less frequently for the StiUe reaction. An example is the synthesis of a benzodiazepine library by EUman et al. Recently, a Stille cross-couphng reaction has been employed in the synthesis of al-kenyldiarylmethanes (ADAM) series of non-nucleoside HlV-1 Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors (Scheme 3.14) [251]. 

Terminal alkenylstannanes can be prepared after homologation of aldehydes via the Corey-Fuchs reaction.95... 

Reaction of fluorinated alkenyl Grignard reagents or lithium reagents with organotin halides has been utilized for the preparation of fluorinated alkenyl tin reagents [111, 182-184]. Recently, a novel, general and convenient method has been developed for the preparation of a variety of fluorinated alkenylstannanes... 

Other similar approaches have used alkenylsilanes and PhI0/Et30+ BF4 and also alkenylstannanes and PhI+CN TfO [123,124]. The reactions proceed also stereoselectively. The parent ethenyl(phenyl)iodonium triflate as well as several trisubstituted alkenyl members were obtained in this way. In an analogous manner E-alkenylzirconium compounds upon reaction with (diacetoxyiodo)ben-zene afforded -alkenyl(phenyl)iodonium salts stereoselectively [125]. 

The acylpalladium is formed by CO insertion as the intermediate of the carbonylation. They can be prepared directly by the oxidative addition of acyl chlorides to Pd(0). Thus ketones can be prepared by the reaction of acyl halides with organozinc reagents and organostannanes. Benzoacetate (490) is obtained by the reaction of benzoyl chloride with the Reformatsky reagent 489 [243], The macrocyclic keto lactone 492 is obtained by intramolecular reaction of the alkenylstannane with acyl chloride in 491 [244]. 

Hydroboration proceeds without a catalyst, but hydroboration with less active catecholborane (225) is accelerated by catalysts. Usually 1,2-addition to conjugated dienes takes place, but the Pd-catalysed reaction of catecholborane (225) gives the 1,4-adduct 226. This reaction is not catalysed by Rh complexes [98], Hydroalumination of conjugated dienes catalysed by Cp2TiCl2 affords the allylic aluminium compounds 227 by 1,4-addition. The Pd-catalysed hydrostannation of isoprene with HSnBu3 affords the (Z)-2-alkenylstannane 228 with high regio- and stereoselectivities [99],... 

Stannaries have become prominent in multifunctional anchoring groups. A polymer-bound tin hydride 41 has been used to hydrostannylate alkynes under the action of palladium-catalysis to give polymer-bound alkenylstannanes 42. These alkenyl stannanes have been employed in intermolecular [45] and intramolecular Stille reactions [46]. Alkenylstannanes can also undergo protonation to give alkenes 44 in a traceless fashion. This linker is therefore multifunctional (Scheme 6.1.12). 

In a related context, 2-(/Koiuenesulfonyl)ethy]amine was used as an ammonia equivalent in an aza-ene reaction by which aldehyde 92.1 was converted to the bicycle 912 [Scheme 8.92].223 After N-acetylation and Pd(0)-catalysed hydro-stannylation, the alkenylstannane 914 dintensed under copper(II) nitrate catalysis. The 2-(p-toiuenesulfonyl)ethyl group was then discharged by p-elimination with potassium rm-butoxide.
