The Exocyclic Effect: Protecting Group Strategy to Enhance Stereoselectivity in Hydrogen Transfer Reactions of Acyclic Free Radicals
journal contribution
posted on 1997-12-26, 00:00 authored by Yvan Guindon, Anne-Marie Faucher, Élyse Bourque, Valérie Caron, Grace Jung, Serge R. LandryTo enhance the diastereoselectivity of the hydrogen transfer
reaction of acyclic substrates bearing
1,2- or 1,3-diols, the feasibility of a strategy employing bifunctional
protecting groups has been
demonstrated. This strategy is based upon the “exocyclic
effect” or the significant improvement of
anti-selectivity exhibited by the reductions of substrates
in which the two substituents (R1 and Y)
at the stereogenic center α to the radical center are linked
together. A rationale for the excellent
facial discrimination of these exocyclic radicals is offered
based on an analysis of transition state
models, which considers both steric and electronic
factors.
