[reaction: see text] A good regio- and stereoselectivity was observed for the PdCl2-catalyzed cyclocarbonylation of 2-alkynols with CuCl2 affording (Z)-alpha-chloroalkylidene-beta-lactones. The highly optically active (Z)-alpha-chloroalkylidene-beta-lactones could be easily prepared from the readily available optically active propargylic alcohols. The Pd(II)-catalyzed cyclocarbonylation of 2-alkynols with CuBr2 was also studied. Although the yields of (Z)-alpha-bromoalkylidene-beta-lactones were low, due to the relatively higher activity of the C-Br bond, the coupling reactions of (Z)-alpha-bromoalkylidene-beta-lactones were quite smooth to afford the corresponding products in high yields. A rationale for this reaction is discussed.
[反应:见正文] 观察到在PdCl₂催化下,2-炔醇与CuCl₂进行环羰基化反应时具有良好的区域选择性和立体选择性,生成(Z)-α-氯亚烷基-β-内酯。由易得的旋光性炔丙醇可轻松制备出高光学活性的(Z)-α-氯亚烷基-β-内酯。还研究了Pd(II)催化2-炔醇与CuBr₂的环羰基化反应。尽管(Z)-α-溴亚烷基-β-内酯的产率较低,但由于C-Br键活性相对较高,(Z)-α-溴亚烷基-β-内酯的偶联反应相当顺利,能以高产率得到相应产物。讨论了该反应的原理。
