The previously unexplored metal-catalyzed [5 + 2] cycloadditions of vinylcyclopropanes (VCPs) and electron-rich alkynes (ynol ethers) have been found to provide a highly efficient, direct route to dioxygenated seven-membered rings, a common feature of numerous natural and non-natural targets and building blocks for synthesis. The reactions proceed in high yield at room temperature and tolerate a broad range of functionalities. Substituted VCPs were found to react with high regioselectivity.
先前未被探索的金属催化[5+2]环加成反应,即乙烯基环丙烷(VCPs)和富电子炔烃(ynol 醚)的反应,已被发现为提供高效、直接的途径,合成含有氧原子的七元环,这是许多天然和非天然目标以及合成砌块的共同特征。反应在室温下以高产率进行,并能容忍广泛的官能团。取代的 VCPs 被发现具有高区域选择性反应。
