Palladium-Catalyzed Silylene-1,3-Diene [4+1] Cycloaddition with Use of (Aminosilyl)boronic Esters as Synthetic Equivalents of Silylene
Sitylboronic esters bearing a dialkylamino group on the silicon atoms reacted with 1,3-dienes in the presence of a palladium catalyst to give silacyclopent-3-enes (i.e., 2,5-dihydrosiloles) in high yields via efficient silylene transfer from the silylboronic ester to the 1,3-dienes. The [4 + 1] cycloaddition was applicable to the parent 1,3-butadiene and various mono-, di-, and trisubstituted 1,3-dienes having sityloxy, cyano, and ester groups. Stereospecific ring formation took place in the reaction with either stereoisomer of 5,7-dodecadiene: the (E,E)-diene gave the cis product, whereas selective formation of the trans product was observed in the reaction of the isomeric (E, Z)-diene. The [4 + 1] cycloaddition followed by dehydrogenation with DDQ or chloranit afforded 2,4- and 2,5-diarylsiloles.
