Abstract

Bu3Sn-substituted benzothiazolyl sulfones 1c, 1d, and 1f were subjected to Julia olefination reactions with a variety of aldehydes. cis-Selectivities up to 97:3 were obtained by using KHMDS as base in THF.

Key words

3,8-Dimethyl-1,10-bis(tributylstannyl)-1,3,5,7,9-decapentaene as a 94:6 mixture of cis-3 and trans-3: At
-78 °C KHMDS (1.0 M in THF, 0.26 mL, 0.26 mmol, 1.12 equiv) was added to a solution of sulfone 1f (147.3 mg, 0.259 mmol, 1.12 equiv) and aldehyde 2 (89.0 mg, 0.231 mmol, 1.00 equiv) in THF (1.5 mL), resulting in a purple solution. This solution was warmed to r.t. over a period of 2 h. Pentane (4 mL) and brine (2 mL) were added. The aqueous phase was extracted with pentane (2 × 2 mL) and the combined organic extracts were washed with brine (2 mL). After drying with Na2SO4 the solvent was removed in vacuo. Flash chromatography [Al2O3 (deactivated with 3% H2O), cyclohexane: Et3N = 200:2] afforded the title compound (142.2 mg, 63%; ref. [11] : 83%) as a 94:6 mixture of cis-3 and trans-3 as a yellow oil.

The cis configuration of the C5=C6 double bond was proved by an edited HSQC experiment (‘1H-coupled short-range H,C-COSY’, 499.9/125.7 MHz, C6D6): The 13C signal at δ = 126.63 (C-5/C-6), split by 1 J C-5,5-H = 1 J C-6,6-H = 155.8 Hz, revealed the H,H coupling constants J 5,4 = J 5,6 and J 6,7 =
J 6,5 = 11.2 Hz. HRMS (EI, 70 eV): m/z = 681.26813 [M+ - Bu], which is 3.89 ppm more than calcd for C32H59Sn2 (m/z = 681.26548).

Cis:trans ratios up to >99:1 for (Sylvestre) Julia olefinations of pentanal or octanal with (γ-butylpropargyl) benzothiazolyl sulfone, LiBr, and LDA in THF: see ref.3c

After terminating the present study, we learned that Professor de Lera and associates observed cis-selective (Sylvestre) Julia olefinations, too, starting from a series of polyenyl benzothiazolyl sulfones including sulfone 1f. In their study, these authors (Vaz, B.; Alvarez, R.; Souto, J. A.; de Lera, A. R. Synlett 2005, following paper) had independently revised the stereochemical outcome of their olefination 1f + 2 → 3 in favor of the selectivity depicted in Scheme [1] .
