Abstract

The tricarbonylchromium complex 3 of 1,2-dioxobenzocyclobutene (1) is easily prepared by hydrolysis of diacetal 4. Complex 3 stereoselectively undergoes both single and double nucleophilic addition reactions at the keto groups. As a consequence, addition of excess alkenyllithium to 3 gives rise to a dianionic oxy-Cope rearrangement yielding benzocyclooctenedione complexes with good diastereoselectivity. Trapping of the bis(enolate) intermediate with chlorotrimethylsilane gives bis(enolether) 23. Subsequent addition of two different alkenyllithium derivatives yields the asymmetrically substituted rearrangement product 15. To some extent, dependent on the method of hydrolysis, an intramolecular aldol addition follows the dianionic oxy-Cope rearrangement. This results in the formation of benzoanellated bicyclo[3.3.0]octane derivatives and, in the case of 1-cyclopentenyllithium as the alkenylmetal, in the tetraquinane system 19. The trans-anellation of one of the cyclopentane rings in trans-20 has been verified by an X-ray structural analysis. The highly substituted rearrangement product 21/22 is formed only in small yield; in solution the bis(enol) tautomeric form 22 is favored over diketone 21.
