Vinylallene oxide rearrangement

An ab initio study of the rearrangement of vinylallene oxide (181) to cyclopentenone (182), has suggested that either a concerted mechanism or an oxyallyl pathway (see Scheme 46) can be operative for the transformation. The transition states of suitable examples of intramolecular ene reactions with activating substituents have been investigated using a semiempirical quantum-mechanical method. The predicted... [Pg.597]

The Diels-Alder reaction outlined above is a typical example of the utilization of axially chiral allenes, accessible through 1,6-addition or other methods, to generate selectively new stereogenic centers. This transfer of chirality is also possible via in-termolecular Diels-Alder reactions of vinylallenes [57], aldol reactions of allenyl eno-lates [19f] and Ireland-Claisen rearrangements of silyl allenylketene acetals [58]. Furthermore, it has been utilized recently in the diastereoselective oxidation of titanium allenyl enolates (formed by deprotonation of /3-allenecarboxylates of type 65 and transmetalation with titanocene dichloride) with dimethyl dioxirane (DMDO) [25, 59] and in subsequent acid- or gold-catalyzed cycloisomerization reactions of a-hydroxyallenes into 2,5-dihydrofurans (cf. Chapter 15) [25, 59, 60],... [Pg.67]

The oxidative cyclization of vinylallenes need not be directed by a pendant hydroxyl group in order to succeed. The higher reactivity of the allene compared with the exocyclic methylene group in 73 (Eq. 13.23) with monoperphthalic acid leads primarily to the allene oxide which rearranges to cydopentenone 74 [27]. Inevitably some epoxidation of the alkene also takes place during the reaction. When m-CPBA is used as the oxidant, another side reaction is associated with m-chlorobenzoic add-mediated decomposition of the intermediate epoxide. It is possible to overcome this problem by performing the epoxidation in dichloromethane in a two-phase system with aqueous bicarbonate so as to buffer the add [28]. [Pg.828]
