Abstract

Abstract Image

4-Chloro-2(H)-pyran-2-one undergoes thermal Diels−Alder cycloaddition with electron-deficient dienophiles to afford, without any significant selectivity, 6-endo- and 5-endo-substituted bicyclic lactone cycloadducts. In contrast to 3- and 5-bromo-2(H)-pyran-2-one, 4-chloro-2(H)-pyran-2-one does not undergo thermal cycloadditions with electron-rich dienophiles. The regio- and stereochemical preferences of the cycloadditions of 4-chloro-2(H)-pyran-2-one and other related 2(H)-pyran-2-ones are investigated computationally. Calculations were carried out on the transition states leading to the four possible regio- and stereoisomeric cycloadducts using density functional theory (B3LYP/6-31G*). These studies allow prediction of the regio- and stereoselectivity in these reactions which are in line with experimental observations.

 Dedicated to Prof. Gary H. Posner on the occasion of his 60th birthday.
