Abstract

Abstract
Due to their versatility, π-allylmolybdenum complexes have become common organometallic enantiomeric scaffolds for the construction of a variety of natural- and non-natural biologically important heterocyclic compounds. Recently, the Liebeskind group has developed a concise, high throughput methodology that is based on oxo- and aza-Achmatowicz reactions, to access both racemic and enantiopure TpMo(CO)2(η3-pyranyl) and TpMo(CO)2(η3-pyridinyl) scaffolds respectively. To probe the use of Achmatowicz reaction in the synthesis of substituted scaffolds and for greater synthetic versatility, 3-methyl substituted TpMo(CO)2(η3-pyranyl) organometallic scaffold has been prepared.

The direct nucleophilic functionalization of charge neutral TpMo(CO)2(η3-pyranyl) and TpMo(CO)2(η3-pyridinyl) complexes complement the nucleophilic functionalization of cationic, highly electrophilic molybdenum complexes. The 3-methyl substituted TpMo(CO)2(η3-pyranyl) scaffold underwent an uncatalyzed Friedel-Crafts-like direct nucleophilic functionalization with silyl enol ether to form a 2,3-disubstituted η3-allylmolybdenum complex. In addition, 2,3-disubstituted η3-allylmolybdenum complexes were obtained in modest yields by addition of organometallic reagents to a cationic molybdenum complex.

Mild and efficient demetalation of η3-allymolybdenum complexes is a key step to convert the intermediate into useful organic compounds. Expanding the scope of annulative demetalation of η3-allymolybdenum to 2,3-disubstituted η3-allylmolybdenum complexes led to the formation of a quaternary center at the ring junction of cis-fused heterocyclic ring system.
