General description

3-Butyn-2-one undergoes asymmetric double-Michael reaction with ortho-tosylamidophenyl malonate catalyzed by chiral aminophosphines to yield indolines. It undergoes double Michael reaction with nitrogen-containing tethered diacid to give pipecolic acid derivatives.

Application

3-Butyn-2-one was used in the synthesis of clerodane diterpenoid (+/-)-sacacarin. It was used as substrate in stereoselective, conjugate arylation mediated by gallium(III) chloride leading to (E)-α,β-unsaturated ketones.

[reaction: see text] The putative structure of the naturally occurring clerodane diterpenoid (+/-)-sacacarin has been prepared in only 10 steps, six of which are C-C bond-forming steps, in a chemo-, regio-, and diastereoselective manner. The key part of the synthesis

[reaction: see text]. Nitrogen-containing tethered diacids, easily prepared by reductive alkylation of diethyl aminomalonate or ethyl cyanoglycinate, undergo double Michael reactions with 3-butyn-2-one to give highly functionalized and substituted piperidines (pipecolic acid derivatives) with surprisingly high stereoselectivity. The heterocyclic double

The bisphosphine-catalyzed double-Michael addition of dinucleophiles to electron-deficient acetylenes is an efficient process for the synthesis of many nitrogen-containing heterocycles. Because the resulting heterocycles contain at least one stereogenic center, this double-Michael reaction would be even more useful if an
