They can be used in a variety of roles and their preparation has been the topic of many studies. One means Of preparing a vinyl stannane is to hydrostannate an alkyne. This process can be catalyzed by palladium, as first demonstrated by Oshima and coworkers.‘ A high degree Of regioselectivity is almost always desired in these transformations, and this warrants the need for a systematic study on what structural features can influence the regiochemical outcome of the reaction. In this study a variety Of terminal alkynes were subjected to Pd(0) mediated hydrostannylation conditions with either a hydroxyl, methoxy, or acetate functional group in close proximity. it was shown here that the oxygen functionalities enhance formation of the internal stannane, either by polarization Of the carbon-carbon triple bond2 or via palladacycle intermediacy.3 Among the functional groups studied it was observed that the acetate functional group had a greater directing effect then either the hydroxy or methoxy group.

Vinyl Stannane Stmcture. Nita” 1 The formation of carbon-carbon bonds is central to the art Of organic synthesis. Vinyl stannanes have been widely used for this purpose, a new carbon-carbon bond can be formed by the coupling of a variety of electrophiles with vinyl stannanes. The substrates that can act as electrophiles include carbonyl compounds, enones, acyl chlorides, vinyl, aryI, allyl, and benzyl halides and triflates.‘ Typically these couplings are mediated by catalytic amounts of palladium, as the examples in Figure 2 Show. Such conditions are mild and allow for a large array of functional groups to be present in both the Figure 2.

Oshima's work focused on the hydrostannylation of terminal alkynes and he observed mixtures of terminal and internal isomers and on some occasions allylic stannanes. Based on the observed products, Oshima proposed initial addition of the tin moiety to afford intermediate 37. To further explain the formation of the allylic stannane 40, Oshima proposed the addition of the tin moiety (Figure 8) can form intermediate 38 where there is the possibility of B-hydride elimination to allow formation of allene 39. Then the allene could be reduced by Pde to form an allylic stannane. No spectroscopic experiments were conducted by Oshima to support this proposal and this was the only literature report of the formation of allylic stannanes. Wada’ss mechanism follows more traditional transition metal mediated chemistry and he proposed the hydride is added first, to afford intermediate 36. This proposal was supported by Trost’s work2 on the hydrostannylation of enynes with electron withdrawing group at the alpha position. Trost observed that the proximal isomer predominated when an electron withdrawing substituent was present alpha to the olefin of an internal enyne. Trost states that a reasonable explanation is that the acetylene is polarized by the electron withdrawing group, so the hydrogen will add to the more electron deficient carbon. Of these two proposals the later is more accepted in the literature and will be the one assumed throughout this research. In both mechanistic pathways the addition of the hydride and tin moiety proceeds in a syn fashion, explaining why the trans and internal stannanes are the predominate isomers and very little cis products are ever observed. Irrespective of the method of formation, vinyl stannanes can be further elaborated via a variety of chemical transformations. As previously mentioned one of the most common applications of vinyl stannanes is in palladium cross- couplings. The Stille cross-coupling of vinyl halides with vinyl stannanes is a mild method for the stereoselective synthesis of 1,3-dienes, a structural unit which is often found in natural products and used as synthetic intermediates.”26 In spite of its wide use, this reaction bears some problems. The vinyl halide and Figure 9.

Furthermore, some vinyl tins undergo protodestannylation during chromatographic purification"""3 and stoichiometric amounts of toxic organotin halides are produced as a byproduct. Therefore, we viewed the development of a one pot protocol for the stereoselective generation of vinyl tins and their subsequent cross-coupling, employing only catalytic amounts of tin, as highly desirable (Figure 9). Towards this end, Boden et al. have shown that upon the complete palladium mediated hydrostannylation of 1-bromo alkynes, the addition of a further quantity of Pd-catalyst and a vinyl bromide could furnish the desired Stille product.” This procedure represents a means to obviate the isolation of the vinyl stannane intermediate. However the stepwise nature of the sequence was inconsistent with our own goal of developing a protocol catalytic in tin in which all reaction components are present at the beginning of the reaction sequence. While the Pd-catalyzed hydrostannylation is a well established synthetic tool"“-""28 the feasibility of carrying out Pd-catalyzed hydrostannylations in the presence of a Stille electrophile was by no means assured. We would need to strike a balance between the catalyst requirements for high yielding hydrostannylations (strong o-donor ligands such as PPha) and efficient cross- couplings (weaker o-donor ligands).25 Equally important, was the need to minimize side reactions, especially the Pd-mediated BUSSRH reduction of vinyl halides.”30 Finally, understanding the regiochemical consequence of Pd- catalyzed hydrostannylations remains an important aspect of this methodology.“-i’3‘25 It is on this last point that this study is focused. We aim to discover the factors that play a role in the regioselectivity of Pd(0) mediated hydrostannylations. Figure 10. Pd(O) Mediated Hydrostannylation. SnBua Bu3$1 Pd(0 _ r. ) r /=/ + )= + / \ alaSl‘lH R R 80803 R l Since the addition of the tin moiety can either occur at the terminus or the internal carbon (Figure 10) the possibility of the trans, internal, and the cis isomers are all possible. Literature cases have been reported where the trans vinyl stannane is the predominate product (Figure 11),‘ but there have also Figure 11. Contrasting Regioselectivity Examples. Ph 3 30H "PM M 835 — (Ph 3P)‘Pd r (69%) Measl‘ 8113an (Ph P)2PdClz (85%) been examples where the internal vinyl stannane is formed preferentially.31 In all cases very little if any of the cis isomer is observed. A systematic study of how oxygen functionalities, in close proximity to the alkyne. affect the regioselectivity during palladium mediated hydrostannylations has not been done. Oxygen functionalities were chosen in order to probe the possibility of coordination of the heteroatom to the Pd center. Coordination to the metal center could enhance formation of the internal stannane, as shown by Guibé and coworkers.‘ In fact while this research was being conducted an example of how an hydroxyl group can direct the tin moiety to the internal carbon via a six member palladacycle was cited by Pancrazi and co-workers.3 Oxygen functionalities could also alter the polarization of the carbon-carbon triple bond, in keeping with the proposal made by Trost.2 In conducting such a study we also decided to examine substrates that contained oxygen functionalites which would allow for these situations. 10 Along with Pd-mediated hydrostannylation, traditional free radical hydrostannylation reactions were also studied. These results allow us to make a direct regiochemical comparison and provide an alternate route to the vinyl stannanes, which would be of assistance in securing their structures. RESULTS & DISCUSSION ALIPHATIC SERIES While our goal was to evaluate the influence of oxygen on regiocontrol, we initially examined a series of aliphatic alkynes to establish for comparison purposes the effects of related non-polarizing and non-coordinating groups. While we wished to initially examine aliphatic alkynes of similar chain length to the oxygenated substrates we would ultimately examine, some allowances for Figure 12.

For example alkynes with less then 4 carbons in the skeletal chain were too volatile to study. Experimentally, the alkyne was added to a solution of THF, then catalytic amounts of palladium and an equivalent of tin hydride were added. The reactions were usually complete after 45 min., at which time the solvent was removed. The product ratios were determined by 1H NMR taken of the crude mixture, specifically through the intergration of the vinylic protons. As the data in Figure 7 shows, a 2:1 ratio of trans to internal vinyl stannane isomers would appear to be the inherent bias for these reactions. ALCOHOL SERIES With the suggestion of oxygen coordinating to the palladium center, as proposed by Guibé,‘ it was decided that studying a series of alcohols would further probe this hypothesis and provide a greater understanding of these Figure 13.

The variable within this series would be the relative position of the carbon-carbon triple bond and the hydroxyl function. As with the aliphatic substrates, Pd(O) mediated hydrostannylations were performed. For propargyl alcohol (25) a 1:1.3 ratio (Figure 13) of trans to the internal isomer was observed. Similar results for the hydrostannylation of propargyl alcohol were reported by Guibé‘ and co-workers, thus establishing that our techniques were consistent with known procedures. As substrates with more methylene spacers between the acetylene and the hydroxyl group were examined, the apparent directing of the tin moiety to the internal position decreased. Comparing the n = 1 (25) and n = 4 (65) cases the ratio of trans to internal went from 1:1.3 to 3:1. To explain this trend, it is useful to consider the work of Pancrazi’sa and coworkers, who have examined the hydrostannylations of enynes. After subjecting an enyne, such as 72 (shown in Figure 14), to standard Pd(0) hydrostannylation conditions a 1:7.3 ratio of terminal to internal vinyl stannanes was observed. This lead Pancrazi to suggest a six member palladacycle (73) as an intermediate. The existence of palladacycles can also be applied to the alcohol series.

These cyclic intermediates may explain why the internal isomer is formed in greater yields when the number of the methylene spacers are small. When n = 1, 2, and 3 the cyclic intermediates are 4, 5, and 6 membered rings respectively. Work done by Dieter35 and coworkers suggest that palladcycles that are 4 member rings are not favored, but 5 and 6 membered rings are. It would then be reasonable to expect the 5 and 6 membered ring intermediates to give the lowest ratio of trans to internal stannane, but this is not what is observed. To explain why the ratio of trans to internal stannane is lowest for the n = 1 case, the electronics of the 7 system must also be considered. It has already been shown that the presence of an electron withdrawing group alpha to the carbon—carbon triple bond leads to selective internal isomer production. This is explained by the polarization ‘of the triple bond. Once polarized, the terminal carbon will be partially positive which will enhance the addition of the hydride to that position. With regards to the free radical conditions, the trans isomer is always the dominant isomer and in the 4-pentyn-1-ol (58) and 5-hexyn-1-ol (65) examples 14 Figure 16.

In comparing the two methods, they seem complementary with regards to the trans isomer being predominate under radical conditions and the internal isomer being available in decent yields via the Pd(O) conditions. To get an idea of the strength of the directing effect compared to steric hindrance, a series of experiments was designed to examine these potentially competing features (Figure 16). With only one substituent alpha to the carbon- carbon triple bond, the trans isomer predominates but significant amounts of the internal stannane are produced. For the disubstituted propargyl alcohol the trans isomer is formed in a large excess, 19:1. These results agree with the general consensus in the literature,” that large steric hindrance at the alpha 15 position can overwhelm any directing effects by neighboring oxygen functionalities. METHYL ETHER SERIES The next question was whether the observed directing effect is unique to hydroxyl oxygens, or can other oxygen containing functionalities such as ethers or esters influence the regioselectivity. To answer this question, the alcohols studied previously were converted to the corresponding methyl ethers32 and then subjected to both free radical and Pd(0) catalyzed hydrostannylation conditions. To form the methyl ethers, the corresponding alcohols were reacted with sodium hydride and then exposed to methyl iodide (Figure 17). The isolation of these compounds were not as trivial as one may suspect, due to their boiling points being similar to those of the solvents, a prep-GC was used to Figure 17. Preparation of the Methyl Ether Series. //H.:OH 2:82,," ; fl“ n=2,3,4 purify the methyl ethers. The prep-GC did prove adequate to purify small amounts of the methyl ethers, but due to time only enough of the material was isolated to be carried on to the hydrostannylation step. As indicated by the results shown in Figure 18, the ether series did indeed promote the addition of the tin moiety to the internal carbon. In fact, there was a greater directing effect 16 Figure 18.

This may be a reflection of the availability of the oxygen to coordinate to the Pd center in a palladacycle intermediate. The hydroxyl functional group will be hindered for coordination due to hydrogen bonding with the solvent (THF), but this will not be the case for the methyl ether group. The hindrance caused by hydrogen bonding will be amplified for the n = 1 case. In this situation the formation of a 4 membered palladacycle intermediate is highly strained, and the hindrance of any solvation of oxygen will be even more sterically demanding. The ratio of trans to internal slowly goes to 3:1 as the methoxy group position is extended by 4 methylene spacers (102). The methoxy function did not effect the ratio under the free radical conditions. The trans isomer is always formed in a fairly high excess and in ratios similar to the hydroxyl substrates. 17 ACETATE SERIES Next a new series with acetate functional groups were examined. Acetates should be able to coordinate to the Pd metal center better than the hydroxyls or the methoxy ethers already studied. The acetates were synthesized from the corresponding alcohols by reacting the alkynol with acetic anhydride and pyridine (Figure 19).32 The acetates also showed a directing effect, which was larger than that observed for either the hydroxyl groups or the methyl ethers (Figure 20). Even when there were four methylene spacers (128) between the acetylene and acetate functionality the ratio of trans to internal stannane was 1.3:1, where as for the corresponding alcohol (65) it was 3:1 and Figure 19.

Thus the acetate exhibited 3 times the directing effect than the hydroxyl and methyl ether substrates. This result may be due to the increased basicity at the carbonyl oxygen. Unfortunately direct comparison in the propargyl were impossible due to the fact that during hydrostannylation under Pd(0) conditions the acetate functionality would serve as a leaving group and no vinyl stannane could be towed.28 The results of the reactions under the free radical conditions followed the trend that had been observed in the previous series. The formation of the trans isomer was always dominates. Hydrostannylation of the propargyl acetate under free radical did not produce a vinyl stannane as decomposition of starting material occurred. ONE POT HYDROSTANNYLATION/STILLE-CROSS COUPLING Development of our one pot hydrostannylation/St“le-Cross coupling methodology ran concurrent with this project. The initial results of steric vs. oxygen directed hydrostannylations helped identify the alkynes to be used for the one pot study. As the focus of our study was the combination of the hydrostannylation and cross-coupling reactions, we wished to minimize complications which could arise from the hydrostannylation step being non- regioselective. Therefore we chose a-trisubstituted alkynes as our substrates since they are highly biased towards (E)-vinylstannanes upon Pd-catalyzed hydrostannylation.3"'3‘ Thus it was observed by others within the group that the reaction of Buaan with a variety of alkynes in the presence of 1.1 equivalents of B- 19 Figure 21.

Control reactions were also completed using the traditional two step method with 3,3—dimethyl-1-butyne (136), 3,5-dimethyl-1-hexyn-3-ol (130), and 3,3-diethylpropargylamine (133) as shown in Figure 21. As expected, the high steric hindrance at the alpha position, lead to the trans stannane being formed as the sole product during the hydrostannylation. The vinyl tin products from these reactions were then subjected to Stille cross- couplings (Figure 21). One problem that plagues Pd(0) mediated hydrostannylations is the separation of the vinyl stannane from any hexabutylditin byproduct. Since the polarity of the hexabutylditin and many alkyl vinyl stannanes is very similar their elution times on a silica gel column is often identical. To avoid this problem a 20 modification to the hydrostannylation conditions were discovered by a coworker within the group.38 By using slight excess of Buaanl, aqueous KF, and PMHS to effect the in situ generation of Buaan, the formation of the tin dimer can be minimized. FUTURE WORK To date we have demonstrated that there is a directing effect from oxygen functionalities which can enhance the formation of internal vinyl stannanes. To further explore this topic, a series of experiments with functional groups that could coordinate either better or worse to the palladium metal center need to be developed. By comparing these extreme cases to the functional groups already studied, a better handle on the factors that influences internal stannane Figure 22. Future Series. u; 313an N... “M... . E», .

For example, it is known that amino groups bind to palladium better than do oxygen. If our proposal is correct, using the amino functionality in a series should show an increased trend in formation of the internal stannane. Silylethers would be expected to decrease the coordination due to the steric hindrance around the oxygen atom, resulting in a smaller 21 amount of internal stannane produced. The electronics of the Silylethers would be similar to that of the methyl ethers so the effect of polariztion would not be a factor when comparing the two sets of data. Once these two series are studied a clearer picture into the question of coordination to the palladium center and the possibility of palladacycles will be available. SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS To conclude, it has been shown that oxygen functionalities can influence the regioselectivity of hydrostannylation reactions, with a bias in the direction of the internal isomer. The degree of this influence does decrease as the oxygen functionality is moved away from the alkyne and there is a high degree of steric hindrance at the or position. This directing effect maybe the result of polarization of the triple bond and/or the formation of palladacycle intermediates. The notion of polarization of the triple bond explains the large amount of internal vinyl stannane being formed when the oxygen is alpha to the alkyne. Once the oxygen functionality is further removed, palladacycle intermediates provide reasonable explanations for the formation of the internal isomer. It was also observed that the acetates exhibited 3 times the directing effect as the hydroxyl or methyl ether functional groups. This information will prove useful in predicting the expected ratios of Pd(0) mediated hydrostannylations, and may also assist in the decision as to which methodology to employ when forming vinyl stannanes. EXPERIMENTAL 22 Reactions were carried out in oven-dried glassware under nitrogen atmosphere, unless otherwise noted. All commercial reagents were used without purification. All solvents were reagent grade. THF was freshly distilled from sodium/benzophenone from under nitrogen. Benzene was freshly distilled from calcium hydride under nitrogen. Except as otherwise indicated, all reactions were magnetically stirred and monitored by thin layer chromatography with 0.25-mm precoated silica gel plates. Flash chromatography was performed with silica gel 60 A (particle size 230-400 Mesh ASTM) supplied by Whatman Inc. The column used in the preparatory gas chromatography was packed with 20% SE-30 on Chromosorb W-AW-DMCS. Yields refer to chromatographically and spectroscopically pure compounds, unless otherwise stated. Infrared spectra were recorded on a Nicolet lR/42 spectrometer.
