SN′ reactions on some cyclopentene derivatives employing simple nucleophiles and organocuprate reagents

Abstract

The cyclopentenyl bromides (1) and (9) react with thiophenoxide ion in SNsyn-fashion with very high selectivity. The bromide (4) reacts with the same nucleophile to give the products of SN2 and SN2′syn-reactions. The lactones (1), (4), (15), and (16) react with lithium dibutylcuprate in the SN′ anti-fashion predominantly, while the esters (9) and (11) react via the SN′syn-mode preferentially. Mechanisms are presented to explain the substitution patterns observed for the cuprate reactions.
