Spirobicyclic and Tetracyclic Pyrazolidinones: Syntheses and Properties

The stereoselective syntheses of spirobicyclic and tetracyclic pyrazolidinones are reported based on a (3+2) annulation between hydrazones and α‐oxoketenes. Some of these conformationally constrained molecules were resolved as enantiopure materials by HPLC techniques and evaluated as aminocatalysts...

Summary:The stereoselective syntheses of spirobicyclic and tetracyclic pyrazolidinones are reported based on a (3+2) annulation between hydrazones and α‐oxoketenes. Some of these conformationally constrained molecules were resolved as enantiopure materials by HPLC techniques and evaluated as aminocatalysts for iminium activation in a model Diels–Alder cycloaddition. Spirobicyclic and tetracyclic pyrazolidinones are prepared by a (3+2) annulation between in situ generated hydrazones and α‐oxoketenes. Notably, palladium‐catalyzed cyclizations led to tetracyclic backbones through aromatic C–H bond activation. Some of these molecules were evaluated as organocatalysts for the iminium activation of enals in a model Diels–Alder cycloaddition.
