Abstract

β-Carboalkoxy-γ-lactams were synthesized in high yields via copper-catalyzed three-component reactions of α,β-unsaturated dicarboxylate esters, aldimines, and a silane. The reaction proceeds in a tandem manner via conjugate reduction, Mannich reaction, and a subsequent lactamization. The method is attractive with regard to the flexible combination of easily available reactants, the mild conditions, and the high yields. It provides a concise synthetic route to functionalized lactams with a β-ester group.

Key words

tandem reaction - copper - catalysis - conjugate reduction - aldol addition - lactamization

32 Representative Procedure Under an N₂ atmosphere, a dried Schlenk tube was charged with DPEphos (0.0094 g, 0.017 mmol, 3.5% equiv), [CuF(PPh₃)₃]·2MeOH (0.0141 g, 0.015 mmol, 3% equiv), and toluene (2 mL). Then the solution was stirred for 30 min, followed by addition of PMHS (0.06 mL) and additionally stirred for another 30 min. Solution of imine 1a (0.0912 g, 0.5 mmol) and dimethyl maleate 2a (0.080 mL, 0.64 mmol, 1.28 equiv) in toluene (1 mL) was added slowly to the flask, and the mixture was stirred until nearly complete consumption of 1a as monitored by TLC. Quenching of the reaction was conducted by the addition of ammonium fluoride solution in MeOH–H₂O (3:1; 10 mL, 1.5 mol/L) and stirred for 1 h. The mixture was filtered, the filtrate was separated, and the aqueous solution was extracted with CH₂Cl₂ (3 × 10 mL). The diastereomeric ratio (trans/cis = 81:19) was determined by GC analysis. Column chromatographic separation afforded the diastereomeric mixture of 3aa as colorless solid (0.144 g, 98% yield).
33 Stereomers were assigned by comparison the ¹H NMR coupling constants with literature data, see: Pohmakotr M, Yotapan N, Tuchinda P, Kuhakarn C, Reutrakul V. Tetrahedron 2007; 63: 4328
