A method for the synthesis of cyclopropanes by regiospecific and regioselective magnesium carbenoid 1,3-CH insertion as the key reactions

Add time:07/12/2019    Source:sciencedirect.com

Addition reaction of two geometrical isomers of 1-chlorovinyl p-tolyl sulfoxides, derived from unsymmetrical ketones and chloromethyl p-tolyl sulfoxide, with lithium enolate of tert-butyl acetate gave single diastereomers of the adduct, respectively. Treatment of each diastereomer with i-PrMgCl resulted in the formation of magnesium carbenoid. Highly regiospecific 1,3-CH insertion reaction was found to take place from each magnesium carbenoid to afford cyclopropanes. On the other hand, when the unsymmetrical ketones bearing an oxygen- or a nitrogen-functional group on the α-carbon were used in this procedure, the regioselective 1,3-CH insertion reaction proceeded mainly. Stereochemistry of the adducts, reaction mechanism, and essence of the specificity and the selectivity are discussed.
