Aryl halides Diels-Alder reaction

Today microemulsions are used in catalysis, preparation of submicron particles, solar energy conversion, extraction of minerals and protein, detergency and lubrication [58]. Most studies in the field of basic research have dealt with the physical chemistry of the systems themselves and only recently have microemulsions been used as a reaction medium in organic synthesis. The reactions investigated to date include nucleophilic substitution and additions [59], oxidations [59-61], alkylation [62], synthesis of trialkylamines [63], coupling of aryl halides [64], nitration of phenols [65], photoamidation of fluoroolefins [66] and some Diels-Alder reactions. 

Knoke and de Meijere [60] recently developed a highly flexible domino Heck-Diels-Alder reaction of a symmetrically substituted cumulene 125, which also involves cross-couplings of an allene at the central position. Both aryl and hetaryl halides react efficiently with l,3-dicyclopropyl-l,2-propadiene (125) and furnish 1,3,5-hexatriene derivatives 126 as intermediates, which are usually trapped by acceptor-substituted olefins in a subsequent cycloaddition, providing adducts 127a/b in moderate to good overall yields (Scheme 14.30). 

S)-(-)-CITRONELLOL from geraniol. An asymmetrically catalyzed Diels-Alder reaction is used to prepare (1 R)-1,3,4-TRIMETHYL-3-C YCLOHEXENE-1 -CARBOXALDEHYDE with an (acyloxy)borane complex derived from L-(+)-tartaric acid as the catalyst. A high-yield procedure for the rearrangement of epoxides to carbonyl compounds catalyzed by METHYLALUMINUM BIS(4-BROMO-2,6-DI-tert-BUTYLPHENOXIDE) is demonstrated with a preparation of DIPHENYL-ACETALDEHYDE from stilbene oxide. A palladium/copper catalyst system is used to prepare (Z)-2-BROMO-5-(TRIMETHYLSILYL)-2-PENTEN-4-YNOIC ACID ETHYL ESTER. The coupling of vinyl and aryl halides with acetylenes is a powerful carbon-carbon bond-forming reaction, particularly valuable for the construction of such enyne systems. 

When the carbopalladation of the bicyclopropylidene is performed in the presence of methyl acrylate, the reaction takes a different course (Scheme 8.34) [79]. The 1,3-diene intermediate 75 reacts in situ with the dienophile to give the spiro[2.5]octane derivative 76. An extension of this cascade Heck-Diels-Alder reaction involving l,3-dicyclopropyl-l,2-propadiene as the alkene partner, an alkenyl or aryl halide and a dienophile has been reported [80]. 

Besides Michael additions the mild reaction conditions of CIR are also compatible with cycloadditions. Since chalcones can also be considered as heterodienes, Diels-Alder reactions with inverse electron demand are suitable elementary steps that are applicable for heterocycle synthesis. Therefore, after CIR of electron-deficient (hetero)aryl halides 11 and (hetero)aryl propargyl alcohols 12, (hetero) cyclic and acyclic morpholino enamines 98 are added and, finally, after adding... 

A80915G is a member of the napyradiomycin family of antibiotics. Its concise total synthesis was published by M. Nakata and co-workers using sequential StiHe cross-coupling of aryl halides with allyltins and the Diels-Alder reaction of a chloroquinone with the Danishefsky-Brassard diene ... 

Pyrazolo[3,4-Z)]pyridines, the 7-chloro-6-fluoro-2,4-dimethylquinoline and its mercapto-thiadiazolyl or oxadiazolyl quinolines 21 were prepared via Diels-Alder reaction conversion of methyl 2-(3-oxo-3-phenylpropenylamino)benzoate into 3-benzoyl-l.S -quinolin-4-one 22 . A mixture of aniline derivatives and malonic ester gave a variety of 3-aryl-4-hydroxyquinolin-2(l//)-ones 23. Condensation of isatins with ketones afforded quinoline-4-carboxylic acids. 2-Aryl-l,2,3,4-tetrahydro-4-quinolinones 22 and carbazolylquinolone were also prepared. The substitution of 2-chloroquinoline gave the 2-substituted quinolines. Basic alumina has catalyzed the C-C bond formation between 2-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone and 2-chloroquinoline derivative to give 21. Reaction of organic halides with 8-hydroxyquinolines gave the respective ethers. The azodye derivatives of 21 were prepared in the absence of solvent. Silica gel catalyzed the formation of 2-ketomethylquinolines from reaction of 2-methylquinolines with acyl chlorides.

Arynes with their reactive triple bond would be expected to participate readily in cycloaddition reactions. However, as demonstrated in the previous section, the addition of nucleophiles is extremely facile, and therefore reactions with non-nucleophilic reagents cannot usually be observed unless the aryne is generated in the absence of nucleophiles. In practice this usually means that routes involving the treatment of aryl halides with nucleophilic bases cannot be used. The first cycloaddition reaction of ortho-benzyne, the Diels-Alder reaction with furan was observed in 1955 by Wittig and used 2-fluorobromobenzene as the precursor. The cycloadduct was obtained in almost 90% yield, and the reaction has formed the basis for numerous synthetically useful Diels-Alder cycloadditions involving arynes. Tetrabromobenzene reacts with butyllithium to give the diaryne intermediate with furan to form a tetrahydroanthracene. The mixture of syn and anti conformers can be separated based on differences in methanol solubility (Scheme 7.26). 

The reactions of bicyclopropylidene with aryl halides under Heck conditions give rise to the formation of allylidenecyclopropanes, which in turn can react with dienophiles in a Diels-Alder reaction. This new three-component reaction has also been conducted on a solid support using the versatile triazene T1 linker (Scheme Heck coupling of an...
