A Stereoselective Carbocyclization of Bis(allenes) with Germylstannane Catalyzed by Palladium Complexes.
2005
Diastereoselective germastannylation of bis(allenes) with germylstannanes, catalyzed by palladium complexes, for the construction of cis or trans five-membered cyclic systems has been investigated. We observed that the relative stereochemical arrangements of the reaction products depends on the substituents in the reagents containing Ge−Sn σ-bonds. When the reagent Ph3GeSnBu3 was employed in the Pd0-catalyzed carbocyclization of bis(allenes), trans-cyclized products and/or cis-fused bicyclic dienes were produced. In contrast, cis cyclic compounds were obtained, again along with cis-fused bicyclic dienes, from the reaction with Bu3GeSnBu3. NMR experiments to establish the stereochemical relationships and a mechanistic speculation for this transformation as a possible explanation for the different stereochemical outcomes are also described.
