Jiang ZT, Chen Z, Xia Y. Modular Synthesis of Fully-Substituted and Configuration-Defined Alkyl Vinyl Ethers Enabled by Dual-Functional Copper Catalysis. Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2024; 63:e202319647. [PMID: 38198183 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202319647] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/19/2023] [Revised: 01/10/2024] [Accepted: 01/10/2024] [Indexed: 01/11/2024]
Abstract
Here we present a modular, chemo-, regio-, and stereoselective synthesis of fully-substituted and configuration-defined alkyl vinyl ethers (AVEs) using simple chemical feedstocks. The distinctive approach involves the chemo- and regioselective functionalization of the CF2 unit in gem-difluorinated cyclopropanes with O-H and C-H nucleophiles in a specific order. The resulting highly functionalized cyclopropanyl ethers then undergo a stereoselective ring-opening process to produce fully-substituted and configuration-defined AVEs. These AVEs are rarely accessible through conventional methods and are easily transformable. Mechanistic experiments indicate that the success of this method relies on the use of dual-functional copper catalysis, which is involved in both the functionalization of the CF2 unit and the subsequent ring-opening process.

Abstract
We report an environmentally friendly, aluminium-catalysed, halide- and transition metal-free method for the synthesis of aryl enol ethers from phenols and dimethyl ketals that involves ketal exchange driven by the removal of methanol. The obtained aryl enol ethers were transformed into the corresponding diaryl ethers by Pd/C-catalysed dehydrogenation or DDQ oxidation.

Abstract
Although the transition-metal-catalyzed vinylations of amines and alcohols via the additions to alkynes have been well developed, the selective vinylations of amino alcohols have been merely investigated. Herein, we report the gold-catalyzed divergent additions of trans-2-butene-1,4-amino alcohols' N-H and O-H groups to alkynes. The allyl enamine and allyl vinyl ether adducts then underwent a cascade (Aza-) Claisen rearrangement/cyclization sequence, furnishing the functionalized dihydropyrrole and dihydrofuran products.

Abstract
We disclose a catalytic method for the enantio- and diastereoselective union of alkyl ethers and heterodienes. We demonstrate that a chiral Cu-BOX complex catalyzes the efficient oxidation of ethers into enol ethers in the presence of trityl acetate. Then, the organocopper promotes stereoselective hetero Diels-Alder reaction between the in situ generated enol ethers and β,γ-unsaturated ketoesters, allowing for rapid access to an array of dihydropyran derivatives possessing three vicinal stereogenic centers.
