RESUMEN
Under the catalysis of Pd2(dba)3 (2.5 mol%), PPh3 (10.0 mol%) and TMSCl (1.0 eq.), the formal [5+2] cycloaddition of vinylethylene carbonates to oxazol-5-(4H)-ones proceeded readily in THF at 60 °C to r.t., thus furnishing 3,4-dihydrooxepin-2(7H)-ones in 67-99% chemical yields. The chemical structure of one compound was confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis, and the others were suggested by inference.
RESUMEN
Under the catalysis of chiral palladium(0)/ligand complex, the [4 + 2] cycloaddition between vinyl benzoxazinanones and barbiturate-based olefins proceeded readily and provided barbiturate-fused spirotetrahydroquinolines in up to 96% chemical yield with up to >99:1 dr and 97% ee. The absolute configuration of barbiturate-fused spirotetrahydroquinolines was clearly identified by X-ray single crystal structure analysis. The reaction mechanism was proposed to shed light on the enantioselective formation of barbiturate-fused spirotetrahydroquinolines.
