Esters, alkynyl, reaction with

Chiral boronic esters react with organolithium reagents to form diorganylalkoxyboranes (borinic esters). Subsequent reaction with the anion of dichloromethyl methyl ether then yields chiral ketones by rearrangement of both of the groups on boron (Scheme 42). No racemization is observed in this sequence and alkyl-, aryl- or alkynyl-lithium reagents can be used. 

Subsequent to this, there have been numerous reports of the use of this reaction using alkenyl, alkynyl and arylboronic adds or esters in reactions with a range of amines and aldehydes. This reaction has been variously named the boronic Acid Mannich , boronic Mannich , boro-Mannich , Petasis boronic acid-Mannich , Petasis borono-Mannich , and Petasis" reaction. The more indusive term of Petasis borono-Mannich reaction will be used throughout this chapter. 

Cyclization of secondary alkyl radicals can occur with a, (S-alkynyl esters, such as 12, and proceeds with high stereoselectivity to give predominantly (Z)-exocyclic alkenes at low temperature upon reaction with (TMS)3SiH (Reaction 7.17) [28]. 

Reactions of cyclopentadienyl- and (pentmethylcyclopentadienyl)iron dicarbonyl 2-alkynyl complexes as well as cyclopentadienylmolybdenum tricarbonyl 2-alkynyl complexes with 4,5-diphenyl-3,6-dihydro-l,2-dithiin 1-oxide 111 were shown to yield transition metal-substituted five-membered ring thiosulfinate esters 112 in moderate to excellent yields (Scheme 27) <19910M2936, 1989JA8268>. These reactions are formal [3-1-2] cycloadditions. When... 

The cyclization of secondary alkyl radicals with a, fi-alkynyl esters 18 proceeded with high stereoselectivity to give predominantly (Z)-exocyclic alkenes at low temperature upon reaction with (TMS SiH (equation 54)79. On the other hand, the formation of (E)-exocyclic alkenes predominated with Bu3SnH, the E/Z ratio being 98 2 at 80 °C. It has been suggested that the main factor controlling the formation of these products is the ability of (TMS Si and Bu3Sn radicals to isomerize the product alkene. That is,... 

In contrast to the thermal reactions of 1-alkynylboronic esters, the cycloaddition smoothly takes place under very mild conditions in the presence of metal catalysts (Scheme 28). A cobalt(i) complex catalyzed the [4+2]-cycloaddition of alkynyl boronates with 1,3-dienes to give cycloalkenyl boronates 266431 and with ct,cu-diynes giving arylboronates... 

Simple a,3-unsaturated aldehydes, ketones, and esters (R = C02Me H > alkyl, aryl OR equation l)i, 60 preferentially participate in LUMOdiene-controlled Diels-Alder reactions with electron-rich, strained, and selected simple alkene and alkyne dienophiles, - although the thermal reaction conditions required are relatively harsh (150-250 C) and the reactions are characterized by the competitive dimerization and polymerization of the 1-oxa-1,3-butadiene. Typical dienophiles have included enol ethers, thioenol ethers, alkynyl ethers, ketene acetals, enamines, ynamines, ketene aminals, and selected simple alkenes representative examples are detailed in Table 2. - The most extensively studied reaction in the series is the [4 + 2] cycloaddition reaction of a,3-unsaturated ketones with enol ethers and E)esimoni,... 

Lanthanide Lewis acids catalyze many of the reactions catalyzed by other Lewis acids, for example, the Mukaiyama-aldol reaction [14], Diels-Alder reactions [15], epoxide opening by TMSCN and thiols [14,10], and the cyanosilylation of aldehydes and ketones [17]. For most of these reactions, however, lanthanide Lewis acids have no advantages over other Lewis acids. The enantioselective hetero Diels-Alder reactions reported by Danishefsky et al. exploited one of the characteristic properties of lanthanides—mild Lewis acidity. This mildness enables the use of substrates unstable to common Lewis acids, for example Danishefsky s diene. It was recently reported by Shull and Koreeda that Eu(fod)3 catalyzed the allylic 1,3-transposition of methoxyace-tates (Table 7) [18]. This rearrangement did not proceed with acetates or benzoates, and seemed selective to a-alkoxyacetates. This suggested that the methoxy group could act as an additional coordination site for the Eu catalyst, and that this stabilized the complex of the Eu catalyst and the ester. The reaction proceeded even when the substrate contained an alkynyl group (entry 7), or when proximal alkenyl carbons of the allylic acetate were fully substituted (entries 10, 11 and 13). In these cases, the Pd(II) catalyzed allylic 1,3-transposition of allylic acetates was not efficient. 

Reaction with an amine, AIBN, CO and a tetraalkyltin catalyst also leads to an amide.Benzylic and allylic halides were converted to carboxylic acids electroca-talytically, with CO and a cobalt imine complex. Vinylic halides were similarly converted with CO and nickel cyanide, under phase-transfer conditions.Allylic (9-phosphates were converted to allylic amides with CO and ClTi=NTMS, in the presence of a palladium catalyst. Terminal alkynes were converted to the alkynyl ester using CO, PdBr2, CuBr2 in methanol and sodium bicarbonate. ... 

Af-AIkynyl diazoacetoacetamides and N-alkynyl malonamic esters, when treated with a catalytic quantity of Rh(II) catalyst, give furo[3,4-c]pyrroles in good yields. The reaction proceeds via addition of a rhodium(II)-stabi-lized carbenoid onto the acetylenic r-bond to give a vinyl carbenoid, which subsequently cyclizes onto the neighboring carbonyl group to produce the... 

Not until 2005 were the first organoboron derivatives of pyridazines reported in the literature [57]. Harrity reported the preparation of pyridazin-4-ylboronic esters (99) via cycloaddition of tetrazines (98) with alkynyl boronic esters. Some of these boronic sters have been used in Suzuki reactions with iodobenzene. Although the organoboron compounds 99 are electron deficient (and some are also sterically hindered) protodeboronation usually proved no major problem. 

A second type is the reaction of alkynylphenyliodonium tosylates with benzoate loaded ion exchange resin. Alkynyl benzoates (86) and phenyl iodide were the products which could result from ligand coupling on the intermediate alkynylphenyliodonium benzoates. However, isolation of these intermediates has not been possible. 1 6 (Scheme 5.8) The same reaction with diethyl phospHate led to the corresponding phosphate esters (87). 1 5,197... 

Other synthons for 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds that have been successfully applied include p-chloro-a,P-unsaturated ketones and aldehydes, P-dimethylamino-a,P-unsaturated ketones (easily obtained from ketones by reaction with DMFDMA), P-alkoxy-enones"" and vinyl-amidinium salts."" Alkynyl-ketones react with 5-alkyl-isothioureas, giving 2-alkylthio-pyrimidines" and propiolic acid reacts with urea to give uracil directly in about 50% yield. "" 1,3-Keto-esters with formamidine produce 4-pyrimidinones"" and C-substituted formamidines with ethyl cyanoacetate give 2-substituted-6-amino -pyrimidinones. In analogy, pyrimidines fused to other rings, for example as in quinazolines, can be made from ortho-aminonitriles " and in general, from P-enamino esters. ...
