Tandem reaction : conditions?
« on: October 16, 2005, 10:10:49 AM »
Hello

I'm looking for condition to do a tandem reaction for my first step.

i think a good way is the following : addition of PhS(e)Cl by michael addition than capture of the enolate by C akylation on bromopentene. Then oxydation and elimination of PhS(e)O2

But after two hours on Scifinder, I can't find conditions! (solvent, time of reaction, base?, equivalent)

Do you have any references with experimental conditions? Or any other idea for my synthesis of acid?

Thank you

Do you have access to an ozonolysis machine, I noticed your synthesis uses ozone?

yes I have access, that not a problem. Only the first step is a problem for me...

Check out the Bayliss-Hillman reaction.

Also, ozone might chew up the double bond on the other side of your molecule.  I think other procedures like OsO4/NaIO4 are usually more selective and mild.

yes I know the bayliss hilmann... but it's trapped with an aldehyde...

I have already tryed ozonolyse with this molecule and the "michael" double bond isn't converted into ozonide

It doesn't have to be an aldehyde in the Bayliss-Hillman reaction.  You might be able to use an alkyl bromide as well.

The double bond in the ring wouldn't get chewed up first by ozone, so you could selectively perform ozonolysis.

Yeah, I figured that you might have a shot since it is electron deficient, but I wasn't sure how good the selectivity was in reality.

What about if you start your synthesis from tetronic acid  to brominate its OH group by Appel reaction with CBr4/PPh3 and after that Grignard with  penteneMgBr.

Sorry I didn't catch your reaction...

I start from tetronic acid (the same as my first molecule but with a OH in beta of the ketone) --> it become a Br and then I don't catch the reaction with penteneMgBr... It will do an addition 1-2 on my ketone...

You are probably right about this side reaction...Then i suggest you to obtain organozink or cadmium derivate of your halopentene which may be much selective for your C-C forming  ???
Really complicated synthesis :) I'll think for anotrher rote...

i can do an organozincic, but i'll do an addition 1.4 and be in beta of the carbonyle but i want to functionnalize the alpha position...

Oh, now  i see your broblem  :o really hard one ..Think about how to obtain alfa-halo derivate?

In fact I have seen a publication with the variant of Bayliss Hilmann.

They use Ph-Se-Li instead of DABCO. and they do an addition of an aldehyde... May be I can try to replace the aldehyde by the bromopentene... But I don't know if it is commercial or not (the bromopentene)

Now i think a synthesis start from furan-2(5H)-one which if react addition with B2 to give 3,4-dibrom dihydrofuran-2-one. In this compound you have 2 Br athom close to different group: alfa and beta-position the carbonyl(CO) one.Then i suppose the alfa-brom will be much reactive with for example bromcadmium pentene and after C-C formin on alfa-position you siply have elimination with alcoholic KOH to eliminate HBr and may be to obtain desired product...I dont know try to imagine that synth :)
