Palladium-Catalyzed Intramolecular Reactions of (<i>E</i>)-2,2-Disubstituted 1-Alkenyldimethylalanes with Aryl Triflates
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A full account of the Pd-catalyzed intramolecular reactions of ( E )-2,2-disubstituted 1-alkenyldimethylalanes with aryl triflates as an entry into polycarbocyclic structures displaying an ethyl−methyl-substituted all-carbon benzylic quaternary center is herein presented. It was found that the efficiency of the Pd-catalyzed carbon−carbon bond forming process is highly affected by the structure of the starting material, including tether length and aryl substitution pattern; substituting the position ortho to the triflate is mandatory to obtain a good yield of the carbocycle. Moreover, the formation of 1-ethyl-1-methylindanes is facile in comparison to the case for the analogous tetrahydronaphthalenes, for which the competing methyl cross-coupling reaction is equally competent. It was established through labeling studies that the carbon−carbon bond forming events are stereospecific and proceed though the intermediacy of a neopentylic sp 3 - gem- dimetallic palladio(II) dialkylaluminoalkane species, from which a 1,2-methyl migration from aluminum to carbon occurs. Intramolecular palladium-catalyzed reactions of 1-naphthyl triflates with ( E )-2,2-disubstituted 1-alkenyldimethylalanes revealed two competing reaction pathways: arylation with sequential 1,2-alkyl migration from aluminum to carbon and intramolecular 1,2-diarylation, in which the catalytic cycle is terminated by direct arylation of the C(sp 3 )−Pd(II) bond. Factors such as tether length, additives, solvent polarity, and C−H···Pd interactions between the Pd(II) center and the hydrogen atom at the 8-position all influence not only the pathway taken by the (σ-aryl)palladium(II) complexes but also the subsequent reactivity of the (σ-alkyl)palladium(II) complexes.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
