Synthesis of Di-, Tri-, and Tetrasubstituted Oxetanes by Rhodium-Catalyzed O=H Insertion and C=C Bond-Forming Cyclization**

چکیده
Oxetanes offer exciting potential as structural motifs and intermediates in drug discovery and materials science. Here an efficient strategy for the synthesis of oxetane rings incorporating pendant functional groups is described. A wide variety of oxetane 2,2-dicarboxylates were accessed in high yields, including functionalized 3-/4-aryl- and alkyl-substituted oxetanes and fused oxetane bicycles. Enantioenriched alcohols provided enantioenriched oxetanes with complete retention of configuration. The oxetane products were further derivatized, while the ring was maintained intact, thus highlighting their potential as building blocks for medicinal chemistry.

Synthesis of diversely functionalised 2,2-disubstituted oxetanes: fragment motifs in new chemical space.
Di-, tri- and tetra-substituted oxetane derivatives with combinations of ester, amide, nitrile, aryl, sulfone and phosphonate substituents are prepared as fragments or building blocks for drug discovery. The synthesis of these novel oxetane functional groups, in new chemical space, is achieved via rhodium-catalysed O-H insertion and C-C bond forming cyclisation.

An efficient diastereoselective rhodium catalyzed synthesis of indolines possessing two contiguous tetrasubstituted carbon centers has been achieved with good to excellent yields using ortho-vinylanilines and iminocarbenes derived from N-sulfonyl-1,2,3-triazoles. The reaction affords excellent cisdiastereoselectivity through the initial formation of a N-ylide followed by intramolecular trapping...

An isothiourea-catalyzed Michael addition-lactamization followed by the sulfide oxidation-elimination/N- to O-sulfonyl transfer sequence for the formation of 2,3,5- and 2,3-substituted pyridine 6-tosylates from (phenylthio)acetic acids and α,β-unsaturated ketimines is described. Incorporation of the valuable 2-sulfonate group allows derivatization to a range of di-, tri-, and tetrasubstituted p...

The first copper-catalyzed formal carboboration of alkynes, in which a C-B bond and a C-C bond are created in a single catalytic cycle, is presented. The reaction proceeds with high regioselectivity and syn-stereoselectivity to form tri- and tetrasubstituted vinylboronic esters from commercially available bis(pinacolato)diboron. A subsequent cross-coupling reaction gives access to highly substi...
