- Summary:
- Some general parameters have been established for nitrone cycloadditions to 2-substituted vinylsilanes. Nitrones and vinylsilanes react to give isoxazolidines with the TMS group at either the C-5 or C-4 position. While 5-TMS isoxazolidines have been fragmented to (alpha),(beta)-unsaturated aldehydes, these isoxazolidines may also be converted into (beta)-amino aldehydes. (beta)-Amido aldehydes were then elaborated into (beta)-amino acids and (beta)-lactams.
However, 4-TMS isoxazolidines, which are the predominant regioisomers from the cycloaddition, have been converted to allylic amines via a Peterson elimination methodology with stereospecific control of the double bond geometry. These allylic amines were subsequently converted stereoselectively into (gamma)-lactams via a Cu(I) mediated cyclization.
Nitrones and allyltrimethylsilane produced 5-(trimethylsilylmethyl)isoxazolidines exclusively. Using Peterson elimination methodology, these isoxazolidines were subsequently converted into homoallylic amines. - Other Subject(s):
