Lewis Acid Catalyzed Cyclization Reactions of Ethenetricarboxylates via Intramolecular Hydride Transfer

Catalytic cyclization of amides of ethenetricarboxylate bearing ether and acetal groups has been examined. The reaction of the amides bearing cyclic ether and acetal groups in the presence of Lewis acid such as Sc(OTf)3 gave spirocyclic piperidine derivatives as major products. The cyclized products may be formed via intramolecular hydride transfer. The reaction mechanism was examined by the DFT calculations. The scope and limitations of the hydride transfer/cyclization reactions of amides of ethenetricarboxylates was investigated, and morpholine formation by intramolecular oxy-Michael addition was also found.

Synthetic studies towards 4,10-diaza-1,7-dioxaspiro[5.5]undecanes: access to 3-aza-6,8-dioxabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-2-one and 2H-1,4-oxazin-3(4H)-one frameworks

Synthetic approaches towards 4,10-diaza-1,7-dioxaspiro[5.5]undecanes starting from 1,3-dichloroacetone and solketal derivatives are explored. The method relies on the preparation of a key bis-substituted dihydroxy-protected oxime, which would undergo a final acidic deprotection-spiroacetalization process. Although the desired diazaspiroketal framework could not be obtained, our conditions led to the unexpected 3-aza-6,8-dioxabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-2-one 18 or to the oxazinone 32 in good yields.
