Solvent-free synthesis and key intermediate isolation in Ni2Dy2 catalyst development in the domino ring-opening electrocyclization reaction of furfural and amines
Solvent-free synthesis and key intermediate isolation in Ni2Dy2 catalyst development in the domino ring-opening electrocyclization reaction of furfural and amines
A solvent-free methodology that yields trans-4,5-diaminocyclopent-2-enones, main domains of natural products and variety of N-heterocycles, is described. The bimetallic catalyst [NiII2DyIII2L4(DMF)6] 2(OTf) 2(DMF) (1) promotes the domino reaction of furfural and amines, with loadings as low as 0.01%, under stirring or microwave assisted conditions to afford the corresponding frameworks in very good to excellent yields. Crystallographic and theoretical studies shed light on the exclusive formation of the trans-diastereoisomers via a 4π-conrotatory electrocyclization process elucidating the key step in the catalytic process.

Abstract
A solvent-free methodology that yields trans-4,5-diaminocyclopent-2-enones, main domains of natural products and variety of N-heterocycles, is described. The bimetallic catalyst [NiII2DyIII2L4(DMF)6] 2(OTf) 2(DMF) (1) promotes the domino reaction of furfural and amines, with loadings as low as 0.01%, under stirring or microwave assisted conditions to afford the corresponding frameworks in very good to excellent yields. Crystallographic and theoretical studies shed light on the exclusive formation of the trans-diastereoisomers via a 4π-conrotatory electrocyclization process elucidating the key step in the catalytic process.
