A synthesis of captopril through a Baylis-Hillman reaction

A synthesis of the antihipertensive amide 1, named captopril, is described. The strategy is based on a Baylis-Hillman reaction between N-acryloylproline and formaldehyde. Subsequential diastereoselective hydrogenation step and functional group interconversion provided captopril in good overall yield.

Metallic chalcogenolates mediated modular Michael-aldol cascade reaction: an easy route to multi-functionalized chalcogenides and Morita-Baylis-Hillman adducts

Chalcogenolate mediated Michael-aldol cascade reactions consists of a very efficient route to multi-functionalized gamma-hydroxichalcogenides. Although, when selenolates are employed, these gamma-hydroxichalcogenides can be readily converted into the corresponding Morita-Baylis-Hillman adducts by oxidative elimination of the selenium moiety. In this context, herein we present a complete study on the scope and limitations of this reaction. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

A Facile, Versatile, and Mild Morita-Baylis-Hillman-Type Reaction for the Modular One-Pot Synthesis of Highly Functionalized MBH Adducts

MoritaBaylisHillman derivatives have been extensively investigated as intermediates in the preparation of important classes of compounds. However, there are intrinsic limitations regarding the structure of the Michael electrophile acceptors, the aldehydes, and the catalysts. Therefore, this transformation has several drawbacks, including, for example, its long reaction times. Herein we present a simple, general, fast, and high-yielding protocol for the one-pot synthesis of MoritaBaylisHillman derivatives. Our approach is driven by a lithium selenolate Michael/aldol operation with concomitant O-functionalization/selenoxide elimination cascade sequences.

Highly Substituted Isoxazoles: The Baylis-Hillman reaction of substituted 4-isoxazolecarbaldehydes and attempted cyclization to isoxazole-annulated derivatives

In an attempt to understand the effect of position of the formyl group on the efficiency of Baylis-Hillman reaction within isoxazolecarboxaldehydes, the reactions of substituted 4-isoxazolecarboxaldehydes to obtain highly substituted isoxazoles are described.

Trifluoroacetic acid: A more effective and efficient reagent for the synthesis of 3-arylmethylene-3,4-dihydro-1H-quinolin-2-ones and 3-arylmethyl-2-amino quinolines from Baylis-Hillman derivatives via Claisen rearrangement

Trifluoroacetic acid has been discovered to be a highly effective and efficient reagent for the tandem Claisen rearrangement and cyclisation reaction to yield 3-arylmethylene-3,4-dihydro-1H-quinolin-2-ones from compounds obtained from the SN2 reaction between anilines and acetyl derivatives of Baylis-Hillman adducts of acrylates in the presence of DABCO. In contrast similar compounds obtained from the acetyl derivatives of Baylis-Hillman adduct of acrylonitrile on treatment with trifluoroacetic acid directly furnish 3-arylmethyl-2-amino-quinoline via tandem Claisen rearrangement, cylisation and isomerisation.

Studies on the catalytic hydrogenation of Baylis Hillman derivatives of substituted isoxazolecarbaldehydes

Results of the catalytic hydrogenation of Baylis-Hillman adducts obtained from substituted 3-, 4- and 5-isoxazolecarbox-aldehydes and their corresponding acetates in the presence of Raney-Ni and Pd-C are presented. The hydrogenation of Baylis-Hillman adducts of substituted 5-isoxazolecarbaldehydes and 3-isoxazolecarbaldehydes in the presence of Raney-Ni furnishes diastereoselectively syn enaminones over anti and in the presence of boric acid as an additive further enhancement of diastereoselectivity in favor of syn isomer is observed. The Pd-C-promoted hydrogenation of these substrates is also diastereoselective in favor of syn isomer but occurs without the hydrogenolysis of isoxazole-ring. The presence of boric acid as additive in this hydrogenation exhibits no pronounced effect on diastereoselectivity. The Raney-Ni-mediated hydrogenation of Baylis-Hillman adducts of substituted 4-isoxazolecarbaldehydes yield pyridone derivatives and Pd-C-promoted hydrogenation of the same substrate is diastereoselective to afford the anti isomer of the resulting products. The enaminones derived from Baylis-Hillman adducts of 3- and 5-isoxazolecarbaldehydes serve as versatile precursors for '-hydroxy-1, 3-diketones, which undergo acid-catalyzed ring-closure reaction to afford the furanone derivatives in excellent yields
