Abstract

Enantiopure cis-2,5-dihydro-3-iodofurans and substitute­d 3-iodofurans were prepared by iodine-induced cyclization­ of enantiopure syn-4-hydroxy-1,2-alkadienyl carbamate­s. These products represent highly functionalized intermedi­ates which can be readily elaborated, for example, in transitio­n metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions.

Key words

furans - 2,5-dihydrofurans - stereoselective cyclization - enantiopure allenes - iodine

Typical Experimental Procedure and Spectral Data for 7 and 8:
NaI (1.1 equiv) was added to 4-hydroxy-1,2-alkadienyl carbamate 5 or 6 (1.0 equiv) in CH2Cl2-MeOH (3:1, 8 mL/mmol) under an Ar atmosphere at 0 °C in the dark. N-Chlorosuccinimide (1.0 equiv) in CH2Cl2 was added dropwise within 5 min. The solution was allowed to stir for 5 min at r.t. and diluted with Et2O. The organic phase was washed with sat NaHCO3 solution (1 ×), sat Na2S2O3 solution (1 ×) and brine (1 ×). The organic phase was dried (MgSO4), concentrated in vacuo and the residue purified by flash column chromatography [SiO2, Et2O-pentane, 5%(vol) Et3N]. To remove the triethylamine, the collected fraction was washed with sat NH4Cl solution (2 ×), dried (MgSO4), and concentrated in vacuo to give the 2,5-dihydro-3-iodofurans 7 and 8, respectively.

Typical Experimental Procedure and Spectral Data for 11: I2 (1.1 equiv) was added to 4-hydroxy-1,2-alkadienyl carbamate 4 (1.0 equiv) in DMSO-H2O (6:1, 9 mL/mmol) under an Ar atmosphere. The mixture was stirred at 90 °C for 3 h. The solution was allowed to cool and diluted with Et2O. The organic phase was washed with H2O (2 ×), sat Na2SO3 solution (1 ×), H2O (1 ×) and brine (1 ×). The organic layer was dried (Na2SO4), concentrated in vacuo and the residue purified by flash column chromatography (SiO2, pentane). As some 3-iodofurans 11 are sensitive to air, they were stored in the freezer under Ar.
