Lekky, Anek published the artcileStereoselective Convergent Synthesis of Tetrahydro-5H-benzo[c]fluorene via Nine-Membered Ring-Closing Metathesis and Transannular Acid-Mediated Cyclization/Nucleophilic Addition, Related Products of isoquinoline, the main research area is tetrahydrobenzofluorene stereoselective preparation ring closing metathesis transannular acid cyclization.
The diene Me ethers or acetates, constructed from the Li-Br exchange/addition reactions of 2-vinylbenzaldehydes and 2-(but-3-en-1-yl)bromoarenes followed by etherification or acetylation of the corresponding alcs., smoothly underwent the ring-closing metathesis (RCM) by using Hoveyda-Grubbs II as a catalyst to provide the corresponding benzannulated (Z)-cyclononenes as single products in good yields (up to 75%). The ensuing one-pot acid-mediated transannular cyclization/nucleophilic addition at C7 furnished the corresponding tetrahydro-5H-benzo[c]fluorenes as single stereoisomers with the exclusive cis stereochem. at the ring junction (C5-C6) and trans at the site of nucleophilic attack (C6-C7) on the three contiguous stereogenic centers in good to excellent yield (up to 94%). The developed strategy was general; the reaction conditions were compatible with hydride, azide, and electron-rich aromatics as nucleophiles. In addition, various methoxylated benzannulated cyclononene acetates could be employed as substrates. Thus, tetrahydro-5H-benzo[c]fluorenes could be prepared in four steps from appropriately substituted bromoarenes and benzaldehydes in good yields (up to 56%) with excellent stereo- and regio-control.
