Pd-Catalyzed [4 + 2] cycloaddition of methylene cyclic carbamates with dihydropyrazolone-derived alkenes: synthesis of spiropyrazolones

Org Biomol Chem. 2022 May 26;20(20):4086-4090. doi: 10.1039/d2ob00535b.

Abstract

In this paper, a palladium-catalyzed [4 + 2] cycloaddition of 5-methylene-1,3-oxazinan-2-ones with 4-arylidene-2,4-dihydro-3H-pyrazol-3-ones has been developed to produce spiropyrazolones in high yields with excellent diastereoselectivities in nearly all cases. The cycloaddition reaction was scaled-up without significant loss of yield, and its synthetic utility has been demonstrated by further transformations of the products. The reaction type of N-Ts cyclic carbamates under palladium catalysis was extended to include [4 + 2] cycloaddition for the first time.
