  • controlling the Regiochemistry of radical cyclizations
    ChemInform, 2006
    Co-Authors: Hiroyuki Ishibashi
    Abstract:

    This review describes the results of our recent studies on the control of the Regiochemistry of radical cyclizations. N-vinylic α-chloroacetamides generally cyclized in a 5-endo-trig manner to give five-membered lactams, whereas 4-exo-trig cyclization occurred when the cyclized radical intermediates were highly stabilized by an adjacent phenyl or phenylthio group to afford β-lactams. The 5-exo or 6-exo cyclization of aryl radicals onto the alkenic bond of enamides could be shifted to the corresponding 6-endo or 7-endo mode of cyclization by a positional change of the carbonyl group of enamides. The 6-endo- and 7-endo-selective aryl radical cyclizations were applied to radical cascades for the synthesis of alkaloids such as phenanthroindolizidine, cephalotaxine skeleton, and lennoxamine. The 5-exo-trig cyclization of an alkyl radical onto the alkenyl bond of enamides could also be shifted to the 6-endo mode by a positional change of the carbonyl group of enamides. The 6-endo- selective cyclization was applied to the radical cascade to afford a cylindricine skeleton. Other examples of controlling the Regiochemistry of radical cyclizations and their applications to the synthesis of natural products are also discussed. © 2006 The Japan Chemical Journal Forum and Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

  • Regiochemistry in aryl radical cyclization onto methylenecycloalkanes
    Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2000
    Co-Authors: Hiroyuki Ishibashi, Tetsuya Kobayashi, Sayaka Nakashima, Osamu Tamura
    Abstract:

    Bu(3)SnH-mediated aryl radical cyclization onto methylenecycloalkanes having a phenylthio, an ester, or a nitrile group at the terminus of the alkenic bond provides exclusively exo cyclization products. The results are in sharp contrast to those reported for nonsubstituted methylenecycloalkanes, which give exclusively endo cyclization products. Formation of endo cyclization products has been suggested to be a result of a consecutive 5-exo cyclization of an aryl radical and neophyl rearrangement. The exo-selective aryl radical cyclization offers a new method for synthesizing fused aromatic compounds containing a benzylic quaternary carbon atom.
