Direct synthesis of regioselective α-allyl α-selanyl ketones and selanyl tetra-hydrofurans

An efficient approach for the synthesis of α-allyl α-selanyl ketone and selanyl tetrahydrofurans has been reported in this present work. The sodium methoxide (MeONa) mediated one pot three-component synthesis lead towards a good to an excellent yield of products with a wide substrate scope. The selenylated ketones can be important point towards important organic synthons.

ORGANOCATALYSTS AND METHODS OF USE IN CHEMICAL SYNTHESIS

The present invention pertains generally to compositions comprising organocatalysts that facilitate stereo-selective reactions and the method of their synthesis and use. Particularly, the invention relates to metal-free organocatalysts for facilitation of stereo--selective reactions, and the method of their synthesis and use. These compounds have the structure of the Formulas (I) and (II). Where X is independently selected from CH2, N-Ra, O, S or C=O; Y is CH2, N-Ra, O, S or C=O, with the proviso that at least one of X or Y is CH2, and preferably both of X and Y are CH2; Ra is H, an optionally substituted C1-C12 alkyl, preferably an optionally substituted C1-C6alkyl including a C3-C6 cyclic alkyl group, or an optionally substituted aryl group, preferably an optionally substituted phenyl group; Rb is H, an optionally substituted C1-C12 alkyl, preferably an optionally substituted C1-C6 acyclic or a a C3-C6 cyclic alkyl group, CHO, N(Me)O, CO(S)Ra or the group of Formula (III). Where Rc and Rd are each independently H, F, C1, an optionally substituted C1-C20 alkyl, preferably an optionally substituted C1-C12 alkyl, more preferably a C1-C6 alkyl, and an optionally substituted aryl group, or together Rc and Rd form an optionally substituted carbocyclic or optionally substituted heterocyclic ring; R1 is OH, OR, NR'R", NHC(=O)R, NHSO2R; R2 is H, F, C1, an optionally substituted C1-C20 alkyl, preferably an optionally substituted C1-C6 alkyl, an optionally substituted aryl group or a =O group (which establishes a carbonyl group with the carbon to which =O is attached; R3 is H, OH, F, C1, Br, I, Cl, an optionally substituted C1-C20 alkyl, alkenyl or alkynyl ("hydrocarbyl") group, preferably an optionally substituted C1-C6 alkyl, or an optionally substituted aryl, such that the carbon to which R3 is attached has an R or S configuration; R is H, an optionally substituted C1-C20 alkyl, preferably an optionally substituted C1-C6 alkyl, or an optionally substituted aryl group, R' and R" are each independently H, an optionally substituted C1-C20 alkyl group, preferably an optionally substituted C1-C6 alkyl, or an optionally substituted aryl group; or together R' and R" form an optionally substituted heterocyclic, preferably a 4 to 7 membered optionally substituted heterocyclic group or an optionally substituted heteroaryl ring with the nitrogen to which R' and R" are attached; and wherein said compound is free from a metal catalyst.

Allylation and benzylation of enoltes derived from β-phenylselanyl silyl enol ethers

α-Phenylselanyl γ-unsaturated ketones were obtained through allylation of enolates generated by potassium t-butoxide cleavage of β-phenylselanyl silyl enol ethers derived from α-phenylselanyl ketones. With enoxysilanes prepared from α-phenylselanyl aldehydes, O-allylation and O-benzylation of the corresponding enolates were also observed.
