The electroreduction of aromatic beta- and gamma-imino esters prepared from beta-alanine and GABA in the presence of chlorotrimethylsilane and subsequent N-alkoxycarbonylation of the resulting five- and six-membered cyclized amines gave mixed ketals of N-alkoxycarbonyl-2-arylpyrrolidin-3-ones and 2-arylpiperidin-3-ones, respectively. The best result of the electroreductive intramolecular coupling was achieved using Bu(4)NClO(4) as a supporting electrolyte and a Pb cathode in THF. Acid hydrolysis of the mixed ketals afforded N-alkoxycarbonyl-2-arylpyrrolidin-3-ones and 2-arylpiperidin-3-ones in good yields. The reduction of these ketones with NaBH(4) in methanol afforded the corresponding N-alkoxycarbonyl-cis-2-arylpyrrolidin-3-ols and cis-2-arylpiperidin-3-ols diastereospecifically.
由β-丙氨酸和γ-氨基丁酸制备的芳香β-和γ-亚氨基酯在三甲基氯硅烷存在下进行电还原,随后对所得的五元及六元环化胺进行N-烷氧基羰基化反应,分别得到了N-烷氧基羰基-2-芳基吡咯烷-3-酮和2-芳基哌啶-3-酮的混合缩酮。使用四丁基高氯酸铵作为支持电解质和在四氢呋喃中使用铅阴极,实现了电还原分子内偶联的最佳结果。混合缩酮的酸水解以良好的产率得到了N-烷氧基羰基-2-芳基吡咯烷-3-酮和2-芳基哌啶-3-酮。在甲醇中用硼氢化钠还原这些酮,非对映选择性地得到了相应的N-烷氧基羰基-顺式-2-芳基吡咯烷-3-醇和顺式-2-芳基哌啶-3-醇。
