Abstract
An intermolecular phosphine-catalyzed dearomatization reaction of 4-nitroisoxazoles with allenoates was realized through one-pot sequential [3 + 2]/[3 + 2] annulation. Various isoxazoline-fused bicyclo[3.3.0]octene derivatives were successfully synthesized in good to excellent yields (up to 98%). Under catalysis with SadPhos P7, enantioselective dearomative cyclization occurred, initiating the subsequent [3 + 2] cycloaddition process to afford valuable optically active cyclopentane-fused polycyclic scaffolds bearing a quaternary carbon stereocenter in 58–98% yields with 70–97% ee. The synthetic utility of this protocol was demonstrated by the gram-scale reaction and versatile transformations of the product.
期刊介绍:
Organic Letters invites original reports of fundamental research in all branches of the theory and practice of organic, physical organic, organometallic,medicinal, and bioorganic chemistry. Organic Letters provides rapid disclosure of the key elements of significant studies that are of interest to a large portion of the organic community. In selecting manuscripts for publication, the Editors place emphasis on the originality, quality and wide interest of the work. Authors should provide enough background information to place the new disclosure in context and to justify the rapid publication format. Back-to-back Letters will be considered. Full details should be reserved for an Article, which should appear in due course.
