Construction of Highly‐Functionalized Cyclopentanes from Silyl Enol Ethers and Activated Cyclopropanes by [3+2] Cycloaddition Catalyzed by Triflic Imide
Abstract:[1] Donor-acceptor (D-A) substituted cyclopropanes [2,3] are utilized as equivalents of three carbon 1,3-dipole unit for the formation of 5-membered carbocyles. Kuwajima and his co-workers reported that [3 + 2] cycloadditions of D-A cyclopropanes, such as 2-alkoxy-and 2-phenylthiocyclopropyl carbonyl compounds, with silyl enol ethers were promoted by SnCl 4 [4] and Me 2 AlCl, [5] respectively, to furnish multi-functionalized cyclopentanes. Although several such [3 + 2] cycloadditions have been documented usi… Show more
“…73 Takasu also reported a Tf 2 NH-catalyzed domino reaction. Upon treatment of 3-oxymethyl-2-siloxy-1,3-butadienes 40, which are prepared from Baylis−Hillman adducts, and α,β-unsaturated ketones 39 with Tf 2 NH, [4 + 2] cycloaddition and elimination took place smoothly to furnish substituted 2-alkylidenecyclohexanones 41 in good yields (Scheme 12).…”

“…In 2006, Ihara and co-workers exploited the ability of triflic imide to generate a powerful Lewis acid [69] in presence of silyl enol ethers (Scheme 1.14) [70]. The group used this catalyst to promote the [3 + 2] annulation of DA cyclopropanes with silyl enol ethers.…”
“…The reaction affords tricyclic ketone 63 , which corresponds to a sterprane sesquiterpenoid skeleton. A similar auto‐tandem catalysis has been also developed with the Tf 2 NH‐catalyzed domino [3+2]–[4+2] cycloaddition to give bicyclo[4.3.0]nonanes 39…”

We report glyco-pseudopolyrotaxanes composed of cucurbit[6]uril-based mannose wheels (ManCB[6]) threaded on polyviologen (PV), which not only effectively induce bacterial aggregation, but also exhibit high inhibitory activity against bacterial binding to host cells. Three glyco-pseudopolyrotaxanes (1-3), which have 10, 5, and 3 ManCB[6] wheels, respectively, on a PV string, were prepared and characterized. Bacterial aggregation assays and hemagglutination inhibition assays illustrated the specific and multivalent interaction between the glyco-pseudopolyrotaxanes and E. coli ORN178. Compound 3 was especially effective at inducing bacterial aggregation and showed 300 times higher inhibitory potency than monomeric methyl-α-mannoside (Me-αMan) for ORN178-induced hemagglutination. Furthermore, we demonstrated their inhibitory activities for the adhesion of ORN178 bacteria to urinary epithelial cells as a model of urinary tract infection. Our findings suggest that these supramolecular carbohydrate clusters are potentially useful in antiadhesion therapy.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
