VI. <strong>Allyl</strong> Anions <strong>Stabilized</strong> by Three <strong>Heteroatom</strong>s<br />
(XYCdC−C−Z)<br />
There have been only a few studies on allylic anions<br />
stabilized by three heteroatoms. Those discussed here<br />
contain ei<strong>the</strong>r three different functional groups or<br />
two identical and ano<strong>the</strong>r type <strong>of</strong> heteroatom-linked<br />
groups.<br />
A. 1,3-Bis(phenylthio)-1-(trimethylsilyl)-1-propenes<br />
(PhS−C−CdC(SPh)(SiMe3))<br />
Predominant attack <strong>of</strong> epoxides at R to sulfur in<br />
allyl sulfide anions (cf. section II.C.1) and exclusive<br />
attack <strong>of</strong> epoxides γ to silicon at allyltrialkylsilyl<br />
anions is observed (cf. section II.G). In agreement<br />
with this, regioselective attack takes place for allyl<br />
derivatives substituted by both sulfur and silicon. 78<br />
The silylbis(phenylthio)propene anion 801 gives one<br />
regioisomer 802 (attack at <strong>the</strong> carbon γ to silicon)<br />
upon reaction with aldehydes, methyl chlor<strong>of</strong>ormate,<br />
allyl bromide, and propenoxide, but <strong>the</strong>re is one<br />
known exception: BuI produces a mixture <strong>of</strong> R- 803<br />
and γ-regioisomers 804 (Scheme 153). 397<br />
Scheme 153<br />
B. 1-Methoxy-3-(phenylthio)-3-(trimethylsilyl)-1propene<br />
(MeO−CdC−C(SPh)(SiMe3))<br />
Products 806 <strong>of</strong> alkylation R to sulfur are obtained<br />
from 1-methoxy-3-(phenylthio)-3-(trimethylsilyl)-1propene<br />
805 but this is followed by thioallylic rearrangement<br />
<strong>of</strong> 806 to 1-methoxy-1-(phenylthio)-3-<br />
(trimethylsilyl)-1-propene derivative 808. A second<br />
alkylation also occurs at <strong>the</strong> R-position to sulfur<br />
producing 807 (Scheme 154). 398<br />
Scheme 154<br />
C. 2-(Diethylamino)-4-(phenylthio)-2-butenonitrile<br />
(PhS−C−CdC(CN)(NEt2))<br />
Exclusive alkylation γ with respect to <strong>the</strong> cyano<br />
group <strong>of</strong> anion 809 to form 810 is observed. Similarly,<br />
carbonyl compounds attack at <strong>the</strong> γ-terminus with<br />
respect to <strong>the</strong> cyano substituent. 399 Alcoholysis <strong>of</strong> 810<br />
gives ester 812 which upon S-oxidation and elimina-<br />
tion furnishes <strong>the</strong> R,�-unsaturated ester 811; hence<br />
anion 809 is a �-carbonyl vinyl anion equivalent<br />
(Scheme 155). 399 In contrast, <strong>the</strong> anion 813 <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
corresponding e<strong>the</strong>r 2-[(trimethylsilyl)oxy]-4-(methylthio)-2-butenonitrile<br />
undergoes allylation exclusively<br />
at <strong>the</strong> R-carbon to <strong>the</strong> cyano function to give<br />
814 (Scheme 155). 316<br />
Scheme 155<br />
D. 1-(Benzotriazol-1-yl)-3-(diphenylphosphoryl)-1ethoxy-1-propene<br />
(Ph2PO−C−CdC(Bt)(OEt))<br />
Products 815 substituted R to phosphorus are<br />
obtained in <strong>the</strong> reaction <strong>of</strong> lithiated 1-(benzotriazol-<br />
1-yl)-3-(diphenylphosphoryl)-1-ethoxy-1-propene with<br />
electrophiles (RX, RCHO, RCOR). In <strong>the</strong> aldehyde<br />
and ketone cases, Horner reaction occurs to give<br />
substituted dienes 817 or 820. Fur<strong>the</strong>r acidic treatment<br />
<strong>of</strong> 817 under anhydrous conditions produces<br />
�,γ-unsaturated esters 816, but hydrolysis under<br />
aqueous conditions affords γ-lactones 821 (Scheme<br />
156). 400<br />
