Pd-Catalyzed (3 + 2) Heterocycloadditions between Alkylidenecyclopropanes and Carbonyls: Straightforward Assembly of Highly Substituted Tetrahydrofurans

Abstract: A Pd catalyst made from a Pd(0) source and a bulky biaryl phosphine ligand promotes highly efficient intramolecular (3 + 2) heterocycloadditions between alkylidenecyclopropanes (ACPs) and carbonyls. The annulations provide a straightforward access to fused polycyclic systems featuring β-methylene tetrahydrofuran moieties. DFT data support a pallada–ene process and shed light on the critical role of hemilabile interactions between the Pd center and the bulky biaryl phosphine. Significantly, these Pd(0) catalyst… Show more

“…This contrasts with the experimental results obtained using bulky biaryl phosphines (e.g. RuPhos, t BuXPhos), [3a] which produce the (3+2) cycloadducts, regardless the presence of an excess (2 equiv) of boronic acid in the media (Table 1, entries 1–3 and Table S1). A DFT exploration of the reaction between model ACP 1 d′ and the boronic acid 3 a , using t BuXPhos as ligand confirms that the formation of σ‐allyl square planar species of type IIa (Scheme 1b), wherein the palladium center establishes a hemilabile interaction with the biaryl moiety, is favored over π‐allyl intermediates IIb (Figure S26).…”

“…When adding 2 equiv of boronic acid 3 a to the milieu, under standard cycloaddition conditions (i.e. using RuPhos or t BuXPhos as ligands), [3a] we did not observe any product other than the expected cycloadduct 2 a (Table 1, entries 1–3 and Table S1). We then tested simple monodentate ligands which, according to the relative energies indicated in Scheme 1b, may disfavor the cycloaddition path and facilitate the desired alternative pathway.…”
