Elucidating the selectivity of dyotropic rearrangements of β-lactones: a computational survey
Abstract
The dyotropic rearrangement of β-lactones is a neglected treasure in the family of multi-bond reactions and pericyclic reactions. Despite its appealing synthetic potential, the complicated migration selectivity greatly limits its widespread application. In this work, we report the first systematic and comprehensive computational study on the dyotropic rearrangements of β-lactones. The use of the double-hybrid functional ensures the accuracy of results. On the basis of the present study and our previous work, five methods to control the reaction selectivity of dyotropic rearrangements of β-lactones have been summarized, providing valuable references for synthetic chemists to design and develop brand-new type dyotropic reactions.
