N,O-Nucleosides from Ene Reaction of (Nitrosocarbonyl)mesitylene with Crotyl Alcohol: Selectivity, Scope, and Limitations
2017
The (nitrosocarbonyl)mesitylene intermediate undergoes an ene reaction with crotyl alcohol, affording two regioisomeric adducts in fair yields. The sterically demanding (nitrosocarbonyl)mesitylene slightly shifts the C2/Markovnikov orientation towards a C3/anti-Markovnikov pathway, affording a 5-hydroxyisoxazolidine that serves as a synthon for the preparation of N,O-nucleoside analogues through the Vorbruggen protocol. The selectivity of the ene reaction is discussed in the light of C=C bond polarization and steric effects. The structures of the N,O-nucleosides are assigned and discussed on the basis of spectroscopic observations and X-ray analysis.
