Thermolysis of Imidates: A New Method for the Generation of Carbonyl Ylides

Abstract: Thermolysis of dimethyl 2-[(3-oxo-3H-isoindol-1-yl)oxy]malonate (8) promotes a [1,4]-H shift in the imidic N¼C O CH fragment of the starting molecule, which leads to a reactive carbonyl ylide. This carbonyl ylide can be trapped by the C¼N bond of imidates and imines, as well as the C¼O bond of benzaldehyde. The corresponding cycloadducts 11, 14, and 16 are formed regioselectively in good yields (60 -95%) and with high stereoselectivity. In the case of 11, the minor cycloadduct in solution undergoes an isomeriz… Show more

“…of benzo-fused 1,4-dioxa-6-azaspiro [4.4]nonanes 42 in Scheme 10 is effected by thermolysis at 120 °C of dimethyl 2-[(3-oxo-3H-isoindol-1-yl)oxy]malonate 41 as substrate. 22 The heat promotes a [1,4]-hydrogen shift in the imidic -N=C-O-CH-moiety resulting in a reactive carbonyl moiety which is trapped by the carbonyl function in benzaldehyde. The cycloadduct 42 is formed with both high regioselectivity and high stereoselectivity: the spiranes 42a and 42b are formed as a 71:1 mixture.…”
