High levels of regio-, stereo- and enantio-selectivity are achieved in the asymmetric synthesis of six-membered oxygen heterocycles via intramolecular C-H insertion reactions of α-diazoketones catalysed by chiral rhodium(II) carboxylates.

Good levels of enantioselectivity have been achieved in intramiolecular C-H insertion reactions of α-diazocarbonyl compounds leading to six-membered oxygen heterocycles (chromanones) through the use of chiral rhodium(II) carboxylates as catalysts.Competition between C-H insertion and sigmatropic rearrangement, the latter leading to five-membered oxygen heterocycles (furanones), was observed with precursors containing a proximal O-allyl side chain.Whereas rhodium carboxylates produced C-H insertion products predominantly, a copper catalyst produced sigmatropic rearrangement products exclusively.A precursor with S-allyl side chain exhibited cyclisation via sigmatropic rearrangement with both copper and rhodium catalyst.
