Mg(OMe)2 promoted allylic isomerization of γ-hydroxy-α,β-alkenoic esters to synthesize γ-ketone esters

This work concerns the Mg(OMe)2 promoted allylic isomerization of γ-hydroxy-α,β-alkenoic esters with TMEDA as an additive. The isomerization proceeded under mild conditions and afforded γ-keto esters in high yield (up to 96%) within 2 h. Both (Z)- and (E)-γ-hydroxy-α,β-alkenoic esters were tolerated under the reaction conditions. This transformation involves the in situ formation of a dienolate intermediate from the easily accessible γ-hydroxy-α,β-alkenoic ester. The in situ generated dienolate can react with benzaldehyde and undergo a practical, useful tandem allylic isomerization-Aldol reaction to afford more functionalized compounds.

Low temperature carbene transfer from alkoxychromium(0) (Fischer) carbene complexes

Irradiation at low temperatures (0°C) of alkyl-, aryl- and styryl alkoxychromium(0)carbene complexes in the presence of methyl acrylate produces a mixture of diastereomeric cyclopropanes and C-H insertion derivatives. The ratio cyclopropane/C-H insertion product is independent of the reaction conditions, while the cyclopropane cis:trans ratio strongly depends on the solvent, the selectivity increasing as the polarity of the reaction solvent does.

Difluoroboroxymolybdenum fischer carbene complexes as precursors of acyl radicals: Dimerization and trapping with electron-deficient alkenes

Pentacarbonyl acyl molybdates 1 react with boron trifluoride to give difluoroboroxy Fischer carbene complexes 2, which undergo loss of the metal fragment at room temperature to form 1,2-diketones 3, 1,2-hydroxy ketones 4, or dimers 5 through a dimerization or decarbonylation-dimerization process of acyl radicals. Decomposition of 2 in the presence of electron-deficient alkenes 11 and 18 furnishes the two-, three-, and four-component coupling products 12, 13, 19, 20, and 21.
