Published: September 2014

Aza(oxa)bicyclo[3.2.0]heptenes are accessed through the PtCl2 -catalyzed cycloisomerizations of heteroatom-tethered 1,6-enynes featuring a terminal alkyne and amide as the solvent. It is shown that the weak coordinating properties of the solvent and alkyl substituent(s) at the propargylic carbon atom favor the formation of cyclobutenes instead of other possible cycloisomerization products such as 1,3-diene derivatives or cyclopropane-fused heterocycles.

A comprehensive study on the asymmetric gold-catalyzed cycloisomerization reaction of heteroatom tethered 1,6-enynes is described. The cycloisomerization reactions were conducted in the presence of the chiral cationic Au(I) catalyst consisting of (R)-4-MeO-3,5-(t-Bu)(2)-MeOBIPHEP-(AuCl)(2) complex and silver salts (AgOTf or AgNTf(2)) in toluene under mild conditions to afford functionalized bicyclo[4.1.

The enantioselective asymmetric gold-catalyzed cycloisomerization reactions of heteroatom tethered 1,6-enynes are conducted in the presence of a chiral cationic Au(i) catalyst ((R)-4-MeO-3,5-(t-Bu)(2)-MeOBIPHEP-(AuCl)(2)/AgOTf system) in toluene under mild conditions and lead to functionalized bicyclo[4.1.0]heptene derivatives in excellent enantiomeric excesses ranging from 90-98%.

A mechanistic study based on DFT theoretical calculations for the PtCl(2)-catalyzed formation of bicyclic adducts from heteroatom tethered 1,6-enynes is reported. Different reaction pathways have been taken into account and the results are discussed. This analysis clearly reveals that the kinetically preferred pathway involves an initial 6-endo-cyclization from a triggered reactant complex by pi-complexation of Pt(II) onto the alkyne to form a cyclopropyl platina-carbene intermediate, followed by a [1,2]-hydrogen shift.
