Direct nucleophilic difluoromethylation of aromatic isoxazoles activated by electron-withdrawing groups using (difluoromethyl)trimethylsilane

Abstract: The activation of aromatic diaryl isoxazoles with strong electron-withdrawing groups, such as the nitro, triflyl, and the phenylsulfonyl groups, at the 4-position has enabled the first regio-and diastereoselective difluoromethylation at the 5-position of isoxazoles by nucleophilic addition using (difluoromethyl) trimethylsilane, Me 3 SiCF 2 H, to provide difluoromethylated isoxazolines in good yields. Conjugated styryl-4-nitroisoxazoles were also nicely converted into the corresponding CF 2 H adducts with high… Show more

“…[16] Indeed, heating the representative pyrazolines in chlorobenzene smoothly gave CHF 2 -isoxazolines 6d, 15d, and 16d in 55-71 % yield after column chromatography (Table 3). [17] Table 3. Synthesis of representative CHF 2 -isoxazolines 6d, 15d, and 16d.…”

“…We have compared the data collected for the reaction of 1 and 6 [14] with those for the reaction of 2 and malonate 5 and explained the observed difference in enantioselectivity as follows (Figure 2). Firstly, the requirement for a free -OH on the phase transfer catalyst indicates the interaction of this group with one of the two reagents involved, presumably the enolate.…”

“…Furthermore, compounds 1 have two electrophilic centers that can be selectively reacted. Enolates, which are stabilized soft nucleophiles, react at the soft electrophilic center E2, whereas hard nucleophiles such as hydroxide react exclusively at the hard electrophilic center E1 ( Figure 1) [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][12][13][14].…”

“…To date, most efforts for the incorporation of the difluoromethyl group have been focused on the construction of the C­(sp 2 )–CF 2 H bond, while synthetic routes to install a difluoromethyl group onto a sp 3 -hybridized carbon are far less developed. One of the well-known methods for the formation of the C­(sp 3 )–CF 2 H bond is the reaction of a nucleophilic difluoromethylation reagent TMSCF 2 H with activated electrophiles such as aldehydes, ketones, or imines using CsF or KO t Bu as the promoter. Notably, Xiao and co-workers reported a Ph 3 P/ICH 2 CH 2 I system which could effectively activate the hydroxyl group for nucleophilic difluoromethylation .…”
