Reagent-modulated optional site selectivities: The metalation of o-, m- and p-halobenzotrifluorides

Chloro(trifluoromethyl)benzenes and bromo(trifluoromethyl)benzenes undergo deprotonation at a position adjacent to the single halogen substituent when treated with alkyllithiums (at -75°C) and, respectively, lithium 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidide (at -100°C) in tetrahydrofuran. Positional ambiguities, if existing, can be exploited to establish optional site selectivities. Thus, butyllithium reacts with 1-chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzene under hydrogen/metal interconversion at the 2-position whereas sec-butyllithium attacks exclusively the 6-position. The latter mode of regioselectivity is also exhibited by 1-bromo-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzene in the presence of lithium 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidide, only 2-bromo-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyllithium being produced. 2-Bromo-6-(trifluoromethyl)phenyllithium is directly inaccessible, but is formed when 2-bromo-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyllithium, generated at -100°C, is allowed to isomerize at -75°C.

Described in this report is an enantioselective route toward the chamigrene natural product family. The key disconnections in our synthetic approach include sequential enantioselective decarboxylative allylation and ring-closing olefin metathesis to form the all-carbon quaternary stereocenter and spirocyclic core present in all members of this class of compounds. The generality of this strategy is demonstrated by the first total syntheses of elatol and the proposed structure of laurencenone B, as well as the first enantioselective total syntheses of laurencenone C and α-chamigrene. A brief exploration of the substrate scope of the enantioselective decarboxylative allylation/ring-closing metathesis sequence with fully substituted vinyl chlorides is also presented.
