C. Montalbetti et al., REMOTE SUBSTITUENT CONTROL OF THE REGIOSELECTIVITY OF THE ARYLPALLADATION AND VINYLPALLADATION OF 7-OXABICYCLO[2.2.1]HEPTENES, Tetrahedron letters, 37(13), 1996, pp. 2225-2228
Pd-catalyzed arylations of 2-exo-cyano-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-2-
endo-yl acetate and 7-oxabicycio[2.2.1]hept-5-en-2-one are regio- and
stereoselective giving products of H-2(HCOOH) and Me(3)SiC=H coupling
in which the aryl group (4-MeOC(6)H(4)) prefers the exo position of C(
5) whereas the Pd-catatyzed vinylations with methyl-2-iodoacrylate pre
fers the exo position of C(6) center.
