Synthesis of 2,6-dioxabicyclo[3.3.0]octanes and 3,8-dioxabicyclo[4.4.0]dec-1(6)-enes by electrophilic cyclization of 3,4-dimethylene-1,6-hexanediols

Abstract

3,4-Dimethylene-1,6-hexane diols2 obtained by allylboration of ketones with 2,3-dimethylene-1,4-bis(dipropylboryl)butane1 undergo cyclization on treatment with I2/NaHCO3 to give 1,5-cis-di(iodomethyl)-2,6-dioxabicyclo[3.3.0]octanes (4) and/or 3,8-dioxabicyclo[4.4.0]dec-1(6)-enes (5). 4,4,9,9-Tetramethyl-3,8-dioxacyclodeca-1,6-dione (9) was synthesized by ozonolysis of bicyclic compound5b. The structure of compound5e was confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis.
