Abstract

Catalytic cyclocarbonylation reactions using a glyceraldehyde derivative as a carbonyl source are described. The rhodium(I)-catalyzed reaction of enynes with glyceraldehyde acetonide gave bicyclic cyclopentenones as the products. This presents an interesting use of a sugar alcohol derived carbon resource as well as a convenient procedure for the cyclocarbonylation of enynes.

Key words

rhodium - cyclocarbonylation - enyne - glyceraldehyde - sugar alcohol

Under identical reaction conditions, the use of glycerol itself as a carbonyl source gave 3a only in 11% yield, along with 13% of the hydrogen adduct of 2a and 30% of a mixture of dimers of 2a.

Typical Procedure for the Rhodium-Catalyzed Cyclocarbonylation Reaction of Enyne 2a with Glyceraldehyde Acetonide ( R )-1 (Conditions A) To a suspension of [RhCl(cod)]2 (6.16 mg, 0.0125 mmol), dppp (10.63 mg, 0.025 mmol), and (R)-1 (131.0 mg, 1.0 mmol) in anhyd toluene (1 mL) was added enyne 2a (86.1 mg, 0.5 mmol) under N2. After degassing the mixture through three freeze-pump-thaw cycles, the solution was stirred at reflux for an appropriate time. The reaction mixture was evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel with hexane-EtOAc (v/v = 2:1) as the eluent.

Using a combination of [IrCl(cod)]2 and (S)-tolBINAP, the reaction of 2a with (R)-1 in 1,4-dioxane at 120 ˚C resulted in the more enantioselective formation of (S)-3a (89% ee), although the chemical yield was much lower (31%).
