The Bronsted acid-catalyzed intramol. hydroalkoxylation and hydroamination of unactivated alkynes are described. We found that unactivated alkynes are electrophilically activated by a catalytic amount of bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide to undergo intramol. hydroalkoxylation and hydroamination. In the presence of silane Et3SiH, the formed reactive exo-cyclic enol ether and exo-cyclic enamine intermediates are effectively reduced to the corresponding saturated cyclic ethers and N-protected cyclic amines. The 2,4-cis and 2,5-cis pyrrolidine derivatives are produced with high diastereoselectivity. Taking advantage of this selectivity, the 2,5-cis-disubstituted prolinol was also synthesized from glutamic acid in the optically active form. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, Diethyl 2-(prop-2-yn-1-yl)malonate (cas: 17920-23-9Category: esters-buliding-blocks).
Diethyl 2-(prop-2-yn-1-yl)malonate (cas: 17920-23-9) belongs to esters. Esters perform as high-grade solvents for a broad array of plastics, plasticizers, resins, and lacquers, and are one of the largest classes of synthetic lubricants on the commercial market. Polyesters are important plastics, with monomers linked by ester moieties. Many esters have the potential for conformational isomerism, but they tend to adopt an s-cis (or Z) conformation rather than the s-trans (or E) alternative, due to a combination of hyperconjugation and dipole minimization effects. The preference for the Z conformation is influenced by the nature of the substituents and solvent, if present. Lactones with small rings are restricted to the s-trans (i.e. E) conformation due to their cyclic structure.Category: esters-buliding-blocks
