The Stevens [1,2]-shift of oxonium ylides: a route to substituted tetrahydrofuranones

Abstract: Substituted cyclic ethers are commonly encountered structural subunits in a variety of natural products, such as ionophore antibiotics and marine toxins. The tetrahydrofuran unit is among the most ubiquitous of the naturally occurring cyclic ethers, and a number of elegant approaches to this ring system have been described in recent years.2 We report here a new approach to substituted tetrahydrofurans using a tandem oxonium ylide generation/Stevens [1,2]-shift protocol.The [l,2]-shift of ylides has received pe… Show more

“…These processes are not concerted but rather involve homolytic bond cleavage that leads to the formation of transient radical species (Scheme ). Furthermore, although they usually collapse to the product quickly within a tight ion pair, a small portion of such radicals can escape to give rise to the typical radical products (i.e., dimerization) …”

“…RϪR) and a migratory aptitude of R that correlates with radical stability are indicative of the homolysis/ radical recombination mechanism as well. [45] Ylides derived from acetals and ortho esters are thought to rearrange by way of ionic intermediates. [46] The intervention of oxonium ylides in carbenoid reactions has been studied by time-resolved spectroscopy.…”
