  • Polycyclic Ring Formation Using Bis-diazolactams for Cascade Stitching
    The Journal of organic chemistry, 2016
    Co-Authors: Sara A. Bonderoff, Albert Padwa
    Abstract:

    The chemoselective reaction of donor/acceptor (D/A) and acceptor/acceptor (A/A) diazo moieties in the same molecule was examined using 3-diazo-1-(ethyl 2-diazomalonyl)indolin-2-one under rhodium(II) catalysis. The metallo carbenoid derived from the D/A diazo group is preferentially formed and undergoes selective CH, NH, and OH insertion reactions, cyclopropanation, cyclopropenation, sulfur Ylide formation/2,3-sigmatropic rearrangement, as well as Nitrogen Ylide formation followed by azetidine ring expansion. The initial reaction can be paired with a subsequent tandem cascade sequence involving dipole formation/cycloaddition in either an intra- or intermolecular sense to generate polycyclic N-heterocycles in one pot, with the formation up to three new rings in a single operation. Excellent diastereoselectivity was observed in the intramolecular cycloaddition reaction producing 5 to 7-membered rings.

    Abstract:

    The chemoselective reaction of donor/acceptor (D/A) and acceptor/acceptor (A/A) diazo moieties in the same molecule was examined using 3-diazo-1-(ethyl 2-diazomalonyl)­indolin-2-one under rhodium­(II) catalysis. The metallo carbenoid derived from the D/A diazo group is preferentially formed and undergoes selective CH, NH, and OH insertion reactions, cyclopropanation, cyclopropenation, sulfur Ylide formation/2,3-sigmatropic rearrangement, as well as Nitrogen Ylide formation followed by azetidine ring expansion.

  • Unusual Skeletal Rearrangement of Unsaturated Seven-Membered Lactams into Fused Pyrrolidinolactones
    European Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2013
    Co-Authors: Silvia Alvarez, Ana Gradillas, Gema Domínguez, Javier Pérez-castells
    Abstract:

    Unsaturated ϵ-lactams undergo a novel process involving a skeletal reorganization to give fused pyrrolidine-lactones by reaction with aromatic α-bromo ketones in the presence of 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane and a base. The process involves the formation of an ammonium salt and subsequently a Nitrogen Ylide, which initiates the rearrangement reaction. This species reduces undesired side-reactions such as double-bond shifts or Morita–Baylis–Hilman-type processes. The resulting products are structurally related to kainoids and the transformation of the lactone moiety in the rearranged product paves the way to the synthesis of these potentially bioactive natural products and their derivatives.

  • Nitrogen Ylide-mediated cyclopropanation of lactams and lactones
    Tetrahedron Letters, 2010
    Co-Authors: Irene Suarez Del Villar, Ana Gradillas, Gema Domínguez, Javier Pérez-castells
    Abstract:

    Abstract Cyclopropanation of α,β-unsaturated δ-lactams and δ-lactones mediated by Nitrogen Ylides is described. The process tolerates different alkyl halides and gives efficiently bicyclo[4.1.0]heptanes in a totally stereoselective manner. On the other hand, e-lactams under our experimental conditions suffer a novel process involving a skeletal reorganization to give a bicyclic[3.3.0] system.
