Rhodium(II)‐Catalyzed Isomerization of Cyclopropenylmethyl Esters into (Acyloxymethylene)cyclopropanes

Abstract: In the presence of a rhodium(II) catalyst, 3,3-disubstituted cyclopropenylmethyl esters that possess an electron-rich or neutral aromatic group undergo isomerization into (acyloxymethylene)cyclopropanes. This transformation, which proceeds with inversion of configuration at the stereogenic center, complements the previously disclosed rearrangement reactions of cyclopropenylmethyl esters. The products arising from this new rhodium-catalyzed rearrangement contain an enol ester group that can be subsequently func… Show more

“…In our previous report, the unsaturated bond of the coupling products having a protected hydroxyl group could be stereoselectively reduced by catalytic hydrogenation to provide the corresponding cis -cyclopropane derivatives. However, in the present study, hydrogenation of compound 22 possessing an unprotected alcohol, in the presence of Pd/C or Rh/C as catalysts, failed to give the desired cyclopropane and led instead to a complex mixture of products. On the other hand, diimide reduction of 22 using o -nitrobenzenesulfonyl hydrazide with Et 3 N produced the desired saturated alcohol 23 as a diasteromixture ( cis / trans = 1/0.8).…”

“…We chose to use the “solvent-free” conditions to study the scope of the GaCl 3 -catalyzed reaction, which is shown in Table . The E / Z ratio of the enol acetates is indicated, but since they are meant to be converted into the corresponding aldehydes, , this point is not essential. Diacetoxypropene 1a was first used as acceptor (entries 1–13).…”

“…The decrease in yield compared to Table , entry 14, can be explained by an increase of temperature when working at such a scale. Methanolysis led to the β-aryl aldehyde 3m , which decomposes rapidly when stored at rt. It was rapidly engaged in a Horner–Wadsworth–Emmons reaction, which provided dianethole in 42% yield.…”

“…Only a few compounds of this family had been previously generated by photochemical reactions (from 4-isopropylidene-3,3-dimethyl-1-thietan-2-thione [38] or from a 4-alkylidene-Δ 1 -pyrazoline [39]) or by pyrolysis of the sodium salt of 3-propionyloxytetramethylcyclobutanone tosyl hydrazone [40]. It is also worth mentioning that completely divergent reactivities have also been reported for cyclopropenylcarbinyl esters in the presence of transition metal catalysts [4142].…”
