Organic Letters, Год журнала: 2025, Номер unknown

Опубликована: Март 17, 2025

Ketyl radical-mediated ring opening and [2σ+2π] cycloaddition of cyclopropyl ketones (CPKs) with alkynes typically require activation by alkyl, aryl, or carbonyl groups yielding cyclopentenes having one two non-adjacent stereocenters. We developed a one-pot multicomponent reaction diboryl-activated CPKs aldehydes that merges ketyl radical chemistry allylboration. This method enabled highly diastereoselective access to densely functionalized featuring homoallylic alcohol, ketone, alkenyl boronate motifs on adjacent quaternary, tertiary, secondary stereogenic centers. Additionally, diboryl also allowed the synthesis rare ketone-functionalized γ,γ-disubstituted allylic diborons.

Construction of 1,3‐Diboryl Allenes from gem‐Iododiboron Compounds via Intermolecular Boryl Group Transfer^†

Chinese Journal of Chemistry, Год журнала: 2025, Номер unknown

Опубликована: Янв. 23, 2025

Comprehensive Summary Allenylboronates are valuable synthetic building blocks and have garnered significant interest. However, their 1,3‐diboyl substituted analogs not been reported. Herein, we disclosed a novel method for creating allenes from gem ‐iododiboron compounds alkynyl Grignard reagents. The starting materials initially converted into the corresponding propargylic ‐bis(boronates), which then undergo an intermolecular boryl group transfer to afford allenes, as confirmed by mechanistic studies. This features good tolerance steric hindrance is compatible with wide variety of functional groups.
