Stannanes oxygenated

A. y-Oxygen-Substituleel Stannanes. Oxygenated allylic stannanes have been synthesized and used advantageously in several types of syntheses. Both a- and y-alkoxy and silyloxy stannane can be prepared by several complementary methods.177 C-y-Alkoxy and silyloxy allylic stannanes react with aldehydes to give primarily syn... 

Use of oxygenated stannanes with a-substituted aldehydes leads to matched and mismatched combinations.181 For example, with the y-MOM derivative and a-benzyloxypropanal, the matched pair gives a single stereoisomer of the major product, whereas the mismatched pair gives a 67 33 syntanti mixture. The configuration at the alkoxy-substituted center is completely controlled by the chirality of the stannane. 

Enantioselective Addition Reactions of Allylic Stannanes. There have been several studies of the enantiomers of a-oxygenated alkenyl stannanes. The chirality of the a-carbon exerts powerful control on enantioselectivity with the preference for the stannyl group to be anti to the forming bond. This is presumably related to the stereoelectronic effect that facilitates the transfer of electron density from the tin to the forming double bond.182... 

Allylic stannaries with y-oxygen substituents have been used to build up polyoxy-genated carbon chains. For example, 16 reacts with the stannane 17 to give a high preference for the stereoisomer in which the two oxygen substituents are anti. This stereoselectivity is consistent with chelation control.183... 

The first chiral a-oxygenated stannanes were prepared by Still59. Addition of Bu3SnLi to a-methy l-/J-phenylpropionaldehyde followed by MOMC1 led to a separable 1 1 mixture of syn and anti alkoxy stannanes (Scheme 26). Lithiation with n-BuLi and addition of acetone gave the respective adducts with overall retention of stereochemistry. Thus, it is implied that the intermediate a-alkoxy lithio derivatives retain their configuration. 

A second route to nonracemic /-oxygenated allylic stannanes utilizes an enantioselective deprotonation of allylic carbamates by BuLi in the presence of (—)-sparteine. The configurationally stable a-lithio carbamate intermediate undergoes enantioselective S/,-2 reaction with Bu3SnCl and Mc SnCI (Scheme 28)65. Once formed, the /-carbamoyloxy stannanes can be inverted by successive lithiation with. s-BuLi and stannation with R3SnCl (Scheme 29)65. The former reaction proceeds with S/.-2 retention and the latter by Sf2 inversion. Nonracemic allylic carbamates can also be used to prepare chiral stannanes. Deprotonation with. s-BuLi TMEDA proceeds stereospecifically with retention (Scheme 29)65. 

Certain S- and e-oxygenated allylic stannanes have been found to transmetallate with SnCU to give chiral pentacoordinated chloro stannane intermediates which add stereos-electively to aldehydes (Scheme 31)74. These reactions proceed with net 1,5-and 1,6-asymmetric induction. 

Homolytic hydrostannation can also be initiated at room temperature by thiophenols, when a trace of oxygen may oxidize the thiol to the ArS radical, which abstracts hydrogen from the stannane to give the stannyl radical (Equation (15)).93 With azoisobutyronitrile (AIBN) initiation, alkynes undergo only monohydrostannation, but with the thiol, simple alkynes show bis(hydrostannation) or bis(stannation). 

Open transition states have been postulated in the aldol-type additions of ( )- and (Z)-crotyl-stannanes (21/22) to aldehydes. Irrespective of the ( ) or (Z) configuration of the stannane only. yyn-adducts 23/24 are formed. Due to the Lewis acid (LA) complexation of the carbonyl oxygen, a cyclic ( closed ) transition state cannot be adopted. Instead, an open geometry is preferred, in which the methyl and the R group move apart as far as possible to generate the enantiomorphous arrangements 25/2611. 

Enantiomerically pure glycosyl stannanes gave, after tin-lithium exchange and reaction with oxiranes in the presence of boron trifluoride diethyl ether complex, alkylation products as diastereomers (1 1 -2 1 d.r.) with complete retention at the stereogenic center a to the oxygen atom41. 

Stille coupling was also developed in tlie early 1980s and is similar to Suzuki coupling in its sequence. It is used to couple aryl or vinyl halides or triflates with organotin compounds via oxidative addition, transmetallation, and reductive elimination. The oxidative addition reaction has tlie same requirements and preferences as discussed earlier for tlie Heck and Suzuki reactions. The reductive elimination results in formation of tlie new carbon-carbon bond. The main difference is that tlie transmetallation reaction uses an organotin compound and occurs readily without the need for an oxygen base. Aryl, alkenyl, and alkyl stannanes are readily available. Usually only one of tlie groups on tin enters into... 

Apart from the ene products, photo-oxygenation of allylic stannanes produces stannyldioxolanes [87-89], Dioxolanes probably derive from ring opening of the intermediate perepoxide with 1,2-migration of the stannyl group to form a zwitterion ... 

This reaction allows aryl carbon-heteroatom bond formation via an oxidative coupling of arylboronic acids, stannanes or siloxanes with N-H or O-H containing compounds in air. Substrates include phenols, amines, anilines, amides, imides, ureas, carbamates, and sulfonamides. The reaction is induced by a stoichiometric amount of copper(II) or a catalytic amount of copper catalyst which is reoxidized by atmospheric oxygen. 

Crossley and his associates described new synthetic routes to a-amino acids and y-oxygenated a-amino acids through Bu3SnH-mediated denitration chemistry (equation 50)287. Ikeda and his associates reported the stannane-mediated removal... 

The singlet oxygen ene reaction of allylic stannane, 16, is a synthetically useful procedure that leads to quantitative formation of the metal ene (M-ene) product [61-64]. However, other allylic stannanes, (e.g., 20 and 21) with less electropositive tin centers generate both hydrogen ene (H-ene) and novel cycloaddition products along with the M-ene product. The complete absence of a M-ene product in the photo-oxygenation of 22 has also led to the speculation that the M-ene reaction is less important for allylic stannanes in which the tin is bonded to a 2° rather than to a 1° carbon [65-67]. On the other hand, the use of more polar solvents can be used to enhance M-ene product formation [68]. 

The formation of the dioxolanes in the photo-oxygenations of allylic stannanes with electron rich tin centers (i.e., compare 16 and 20) can be attributed to the ability of tin to stabilize and migrate to an electron deficient P carbon (Sch. 9). The reduced yield of dioxolane in the reaction of 22 in comparison to 20 or 21 can be attributed to a steric effect operating in conjunction with an electronic effect of the carbomethoxy group in the bridged (or perhaps open) intermediate 23 which promotes hydrogen abstraction in lieu of sterically more demanding nucleophilic attack (Sch. 9). 

Organolithiums a to oxygen atoms within the ring are also configurationally stable at -78 °C in THF. The axial and equatorial stannanes ax-7 0 and eg-70, for example, give organolithiums 71 which retain their stereochemistry over periods of up to 50 min in THF at -78 °C, and can be quenched stereospecifically with aldehydes.38...
