Dichloromethane as a source of the CH22-synthon: A combination of an arene-catalysed lithiation and a barbier-type reaction
Guijarro, Albert,Vus, Miguel
, p. 253 - 256 (1994)
The reaction of dichloromethane 1 with an excess of lithium powder (1:7 molar ratio) and catalytic amount of 4,4'-di-tert-butylbiphenyl (5 mol %) in the presence of a carbonyl compound 2 (1:2 molar ratio) in tetrahydrofuran at -40°C yields, after hydrolysis, the corresponding 1,3-diols 3 in moderate yields. The process can be also applied to more complicated gem-dichloro derivatives such as 7,7-dichlorobicyclo[4.1.0]heptane 6 or methyl dichloromethyl ether 9.
Stereocontrolled reductive amination of 3-hydroxy ketones
Haddad, Mansour,Dorbais, Jerome,Larcheveque, Marc
, p. 5981 - 5984 (2007/10/03)
syn-1,3-Aminoalcohols are synthesized in high diastereomeric excess by reductive amination of 3-hydroxyketones with sodium cyanoborohydride in the presence of benzylamine.
Polychlorinated materials as a source of polyanionic synthons
Guijarro, Albert,Yus, Miguel
, p. 1797 - 1810 (2007/10/03)
The reaction of dichloromethane (1a) or dichlorodideuteriomethane (1b) with an excess of lithium powder (1:7 molar ratio) and a catalytic amount of DTBB (5 mol%) in the presence of a carbonyl compound 2 (1:2 molar ratio) in THF at -40°C yields, after hydrolysis, the corresponding 1,3-diols 3 in moderate yields. The process is applied to other gem-dichlorinated materials such as 7,7-dichloro [4.1.0]heptane (4), 1,1-dichlorotetramethylcyclopropane (7) and dichloromethyl methyl ether (10), using pivalaldehyde as electrophile. Starting from 1,1,1-trichlorinated compounds or tetrachloromethane (14) and using chlorotrimethylsilane as electrophile at temperatures ranging between -80 and -90°C, the corresponding polysilylated compounds 15-17 are prepared applying the mentioned methodology.
