Dimethyl-4,5-bis(bromomethylene)furan-2,3-dioate 2 , generated “in situ” from the tetrabromo compound 1 and sodium iodide, was condensed with unsymmetrical quinones 7c-e , 10 and the 2-or 3-bromo naphthoquinones 8 or 9 . Starting from the latter, the cycloadditions were found more regioselective than from the non brominated quinones. Assignment of the regioisomers was made by 2D 1 H- 13 C HMQC and HMBC techniques performed on 12d, 11e and 12e . Calculations of HOMO and LUMO energies and the orbital coefficients by the semiempirical AM1 method indicate that 2 can be characterized as a rather neutral non polarised diene. |
