Highly diastereoselective dioxetane formation in the photooxygenation of enecarbamates with an oxazolidinone chiral auxiliary: steric control in the [2 + 2] cycloaddition of singlet oxygen through conformational alignment.

چکیده
The photooxygenation of oxazolidinone-substituted enecarbamates leads to diastereomerically pure dioxetanes. The high diastereoselectivity is rationalized in terms of effective pi-facial control achieved by shielding one side of the double bond with the chiral auxiliary. The absolute configuration of the dioxetanes is assigned by derivatization to diols.

Photochirogenesis, the control of chirality in photoreactions, is one of the most challenging problems in stereocontrolled photochemistry, in which the stereodifferentiation has to be imprinted within the short lifetime of the electronically excited state. Singlet oxygen (1O2), an electronically excited molecule that is known to be sensitive to vibrational deactivation, has been selected as a m...

The stereochemical course of the oxidation of chiral oxazolidinone-substituted enecarbamates has been studied for singlet oxygen ((1)O(2)), dimethyldioxirane (DMD), and m-chloroperbenzoic acid (mCPBA) by examining of the special structural and stereoelectronic features of the enecarbamates. Valuable mechanistic insight into these selective oxidations is gained. Whereas the R(1) substituent on t...
