Cycloaddition 4-hydroxy

Electron-deficient alkenes add stereospecifically to 4-hydroxy-THISs with formation of endo-cycloadducts. Only with methylvinyl-ketone considerable amounts of the exo isomer are produced (Scheme 8) (16). The adducts (6) may extrude hydrogen sulfide on heating with methoxide producing 2-pyridones. The base is unnecessary with fumaronitrile adducts. The alternative elimination of isocyanate Or sulfur may be controlled using 7 as the dipolarenOphile. The cycloaddition produces two products, 8a (R = H, R = COOMe) and 8b (R = COOMe, R =H) (Scheme 9) (17). Pyrolysis of 8b leads to extrusion of furan and isocyanate to give a thiophene. The alternative S-elimi-nation can be effected by oxidation of the adduct and subsequent pyrolysis. 

Hydroxy-THISs react with electron-deficient alkynes to give nonisol-able adducts that extrude carbonyl sulfide, affording pyrroles (23). Compound 16 (X = 0) seems particularly reactive (Scheme 16) (25). The cycloaddition to benzyne yields isoindoles in low- yield. Further cyclo-addition between isoindole and benzyne leads to an iminoanthracene as the main product (Scheme 17). The cycloadducts derived from electron-deficient alkenes are stable (23, 25) unless highly strained. Thus the two adducts, 18a (R = H, R = COOMe) and 18b (R = COOMe, R = H), formed from 7, both extrude furan and COS under the reaction conditions producing the pyrroles (19. R = H or COOMe) (Scheme 18). Similarly, the cycloadduct formed between 16 (X = 0) and dimethylfumarate... 

Acylisocyanates or isothiocyanates undergo cycloaddition with 5-hydroxy-THISs under so mild conditions that isolation of the initial adducts becomes possible (23). In cycloaddition reactions the 5-hydroxy-THISs can be replaced by their precursors (23). 

Again, it is noteworthy that 4-substituted 5-hydrdxythiazoles (24) react like 5-hydroxy-THISs with alkynes to give pyrroles and sometimes with alkenes to give exo-cycloadducts (Scheme 22). In the latter case other processes compete with the cycloaddition, becoming dominant when 24 is treated with azo-compounds, enamines, or heterocumulenes (31). 

Other approaches to (36) make use of (37, R = CH ) and reaction with a tributylstannyl allene (60) or 3-siloxypentadiene (61). A chemicoen2ymatic synthesis for both thienamycia (2) and 1 -methyl analogues starts from the chiral monoester (38), derived by enzymatic hydrolysis of the dimethyl ester, and proceeding by way of the P-lactam (39, R = H or CH ) (62,63). (3)-Methyl-3-hydroxy-2-methylpropanoate [80657-57-4] (40), C H qO, has also been used as starting material for (36) (64), whereas 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of a chiral nitrone with a crotonate ester affords the oxa2ohdine (41) which again can be converted to a suitable P-lactam precursor (65).

Hydrogenolytic cleavage of isoxazolines has also proved useful in preparation of -dihydroxy ketones and -hydroxy carboxylic acids (47). The isoxazolines were prepared by a [3 -1- 2] cycloaddition. 

By selection of conditions and catalyst, the intermediate hydroxyimine (11) can be directed to either (he hydroxy ketone (10) or amino alcohol (12), Over platinum oxide in methanol-acetic acid-water the amino alcohol forms, whereas over alkali-free Ra-Ni in methanol-water or over 10% Pd-on-C in methanol-water containing boric acid, the hydroxy ketones form in excellent yield. Nitrile oxide cycloadditions have been applied to five-membered ring syntheses (.50). 

A key transformation in Corey s prostaglandin synthesis is a Diels-Alder reaction between a 5-(alkoxymethyl)-l,3-cyclopenta-diene and a ketene equivalent such as 2-chloroacrylonitrile (16). As we have already witnessed in Scheme 3, it is possible to bring about a smooth [4+2] cycloaddition reaction between 5-substituted cyclopentadiene 15 and 2-chloroacrylonitrile (16) to give racemic 14 as a mixture of epimeric chloronitriles. Under these conditions, the diastereomeric chloronitriles are both produced in racemic form because one enantiotopic face of dienophile 16 will participate in a Diels-Alder reaction with the same facility as the other enantiotopic face. In subsequent work, Corey s group demonstrated that racemic hydroxy acid 11, derived in three steps from racemic 14 (see Scheme 3), could be resolved in a classical fashion with (+)-ephe-... 

The reaction of alkoxyarylcarbene complexes with alkynes mainly affords Dotz benzannulated [3C+2S+1C0] cycloadducts. However, uncommon reaction pathways of some alkoxyarylcarbene complexes in their reaction with alkynes leading to indene derivatives in a formal [3C+2S] cycloaddition process have been reported. For example, the reaction of methoxy(2,6-dimethylphenyl)chromium carbene complex with 1,2-diphenylacetylene at 100 °C gives rise to an unusual indene derivative where a sigmatropic 1,5-methyl shift is observed [60]. Moreover, a related (4-hydroxy-2,6-dimethylphenyl)carbene complex reacts in benzene at 100 °C with 3-hexyne to produce an indene derivative. However, the expected Dotz cycloadduct is obtained when the solvent is changed to acetonitrile [61] (Scheme 19). Also, Dotz et al. have shown that the introduction of an isocyanide ligand into the coordination sphere of the metal induces the preferential formation of indene derivatives [62]. 

Tropone (125) and the 2-substituted tropones showed a different reactivity in the cycloaddition with 2-cyclopentenone (28). Whereas tropone itself (125) and the 2-methoxytropone (126) reacted at lOkbar, giving a mixture of four and three products, respectively (Scheme 5.18), 2-hydroxy- and 2-chloro-tropone failed to react at all [43b]. Compound 127 does not have the expected dihydro-homobarrelenone framework it is probably derived from the cycloaddition of 125 and 1,4-cyclopentadien-l-ol, the enol form of 28. 

Another versatile two-step synthesis of homobarrelenones [45] is based on the high pressure cycloaddition of tropone (125) and its 2-methoxy-, 2-hydroxy- and 2-chloro-derivatives with 2,3-bis(methoxycarbonyl)-7-oxabicyclo[2.2. l]hepta 2,5-diene (133) followed by thermolysis of the cycloadducts at 130 °C with the... 

Furoquinones, such as naphtho[2,3-b]fiiran-4,9-dione, naphtho[l,2-b]fiiran-4,5-dione, benzofuran-4,7-dione and benzofiiran-4,5-dione derivatives are available by the ceric ammonium nitrate mediated [3+2] cycloaddition of 2-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinones and 2-hydroxy-1,4-benzoquinones with alkenes or phenylacetylene <96CL451>. 

The product of the reaction in Entry 8 was used in the synthesis of the alkaloid pseudotropine. The proper stereochemical orientation of the hydroxy group is determined by the structure of the oxazoline ring formed in the cycloaddition. Entry 9 portrays the early stages of synthesis of the biologically important molecule biotin. The reaction in Entry 10 was used to establish the carbocyclic skeleton and stereochemistry of a group of toxic indolizidine alkaloids found in dart poisons from frogs. Entry 11 involves generation of a nitrile oxide. Three other stereoisomers are possible. The observed isomer corresponds to approach from the less hindered convex face of the molecule. 

Alkenylboronic esters undergo regio- and stereoselective 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions with nitrones. These reactions lead to boronic ester-substituted isoxazolidines, which can be converted by oxidation with H202 to the corresponding 4-hydroxy derivatives (Eq. 8.48).69 The high selectivity could be the result of a favorable interaction between the boronic ester and the amino group. 

Thus, isoxazolines are converted into y-amino alcohols and (3-hydroxy ketones stereoselec-tively. However, the intermolecular cycloaddition involving 1,2-unsymmetrically substituted alkenes such as trans-cinnamyl alcohol proceeds nonregioselectively to give a mixture of the two regioisomers (Eq. 8.63).98...
