Abstract

(Z)-1,2-Dihaloalkenes are thermodynamically disfavoured of the two stereoisomers. This paper reports the synthesis of some (Z)-1,2-dichloroalkene analogues from mucochloric acid. A more versatile approach involved the chloroboration of terminal alkynes to yield corresponding (Z)-chloroboronic acid as a first step. Treatment of the organoboronic acid with potassium hydrogen difluoride followed by tetrabutylammonium trichloride gave (Z)-1,2-dichloroalkenes in moderate to good yields in a stereospecific manner. Key words: cis-dichloroalkene, chloroboration, chlorodeboronation, NOE, terminal alkyne. Dans les series de 1,2-dihalogenoalcenes, les isomeres (Z)- sont thermodynamiquement defavorises. Dans ce travail, on a realise la synthese de quelques analogues de (Z)-1,2-dichloroalcenes a partir de l'acide mucochlorique. Une approche encore plus versatile implique une premiere etape de chloroboration d'alcynes terminaux qui conduit a l'acide (Z)chloroboronique correspondant. Le traitement de l'acide organoboronique avec du difluorure de potassium et d'hydrogene, suivi d'une reaction avec du trichlorure de tetrabutylammonium fournit les (Z)-1,2-dichloroalcenes d'une maniere stereospecifique, avec des rendements allant de moderes a bons. Mots-cles : cis-dichloroalcene, chloroboration, chlorodeboronation, effet Overhauser nucleaire (EN), alcyne terminal. [Traduit par la Redaction]<br />Introduction 1,2-Dihaloalkenes are useful precursors in organic synthesis, particularly in the carbon-carbon bond-forming reactions. (1) Of the two stereoisomers, (Z)-isomers have found applications in reactions such as the Bergman cyclization. [...]
