Cyclization of 4‐Hydroxy‐3‐hydroxyalkylcarbostyrils Under Mitsunobu Conditions

Pages 3381-3387 | Received 02 Jun 2004, Published online: 10 Jan 2011
 

Abstract

Reaction of 4‐hydroxy‐3‐hydroxyalkyl‐1‐methyl‐2(1H)quinolinones with Ph3P/DEAD gives either C‐ or O‐cyclized products depending on chain length. Hydroxyethyl produces only spiro cyclopropylquinolinone 6, whereas hydroxypropyl affords only pyranoquinolinone 8. Hydroxybutyl gives a 2:1 mixture of spiro cyclopentylquinolinone 11 and oxepinoquinolinone 10.
