Racemic methyl 3,10-dioxa-2-aza­tri­cyclo­[6.2.1.0^2,6]undecane-4-carboxyl­ate

Abstract

The structure of the racemic title compound, C₁₀H₁₅NO₄, consists of a tricyclic skeleton comprising a six-membered piperidine ring and five-membered isoxazolidine and tetra­hydro­furan rings. The piperidine ring adopts a distorted chair conformation, while the isoxazolidine and tetra­hydro­furan rings have envelope conformations.

Comment

1,3-Dipolar cycloaddition reaction of cyclic nitrones with alkenes shows greater stereoselectivity and reactivity compared to their acyclic counterparts for applications in the synthesis of natural products (Merino, 2004; Moosa & Ali, 2009, 2010; Ali et al., 1988; Ali & Wazeer, 1988). Our interest in developing a synthetic methodology to construct the ring skeleton present in a natural product called SB-219383 (Houge-Frydrych et al., 2000), first member of a new class of compounds having inhibitory activity against tyrosyl tRNA sythetase (Stefanska et al., 2000), led to explore the synthesis and cycloaddition of the bicyclic nitrone 1-oxa-5,6-dehydro-6-aza-bicyclo[3,2,1]heptane 6-oxide with methyl acrylate. The structure of a recemic sample of the cycloadduct is reported here. It consists of a tricyclic skeleton corresponding to a cis-invertomer with the nitrogen lone pair in axial position. The two C—N bond lengths of the piperidine ring are N1—C9: 1.453 (2) Å and N1—C5: 1.473 (2) Å. The former bond is shorter presumably as a result of anomeric effect (Chandrasekhar, 2005), inducing a partial double bond character. The bond distances are consistent with those reported for piperidine (Parkin et al., 2004) and bicyclic polyhydroisoxazolopyridines (Banerji et al., 2006; Carmona et al., 2009). The piperidine ring adopts a distorted chair conformation likely due to the strain of the 5-membered rings. Angular constraints imposed by the five-membered tetrahydrofuran ring skeleton led to the squeezing of the C7—C8—C9 angle to 97.8 (2)°; the corresponding bond angle in piperidine, the parent six-membered heterocyclic, is 110.21 (7)°. The angles C5—N1—C9, N1—C5—C6 and C5—C6—C7 on the other end of the six-membered ring were expanded to 114.1 (2)°, 112.3 (2)° and 113.7 (2)°, respectively, while the corresponding angles in piperidine are 111.04 (7)°, 109.84 (7)° and 110.70 (7)° (Parkin et al., 2004). The destabilizing diaxial interactions among the three axially oriented substituents in the piperidine ring is somewhat relieved by moving outward from their ideal axial positions. This leads to a flattening of the chair at N1, C5 and C6. The isoxazolidine ring adopts an envelope conformation with N1, O3, C3 and C4 essentially in the plane while C5 is 0.482 (3) Å out of the plane. The dihedral angle between the previous plane and the plane N1—C5—C4 is 31.9 (2)°. The tetrahydrofuran ring has also an envelope conformation with C8 at 0.733 (3) Å out of the plane C9—O4—C10—C7 which has a dihedral angle of 47.0 (2)° with the plane C7—C8—C9.

Experimental

To a stirred solution of N-hydroxy-4-piperidinemethanol (0.39 g, 3.0 mmol) in chloroform (20 ml) was added mercuric oxide (0.65 g, 12 mmol) and anhydrous magnesium sulfate (150 mg) in 10 min. The reaction mixture was then stirred at room temperature for 6 h. The mixture was filtered over a bed of magnesium sulfate to obtain a solution of the bicyclic nitrone 1-oxa-5,6-dehydro-6-aza-bicyclo[3,2,1]heptane 6-oxide which was used without isolation. The solution of the nitrone and methyl acrylate (2 ml) was stirred at room temperature for 4 h. After removal of the solvent and excess methyl acrylate, the reaction mixture was concentrated and the residual liquid was chromatographed over silica using 9:1 ether/methanol mixture as an eluant to give the cycloadduct as a solid (0.28 g, 44%). Colorless blocks were obtained after crystallization at 0°C from ether/CH₂Cl₂ (9/1) mixture.

Refinement

Methyl H atoms were included as a rigid group and refined using a riding model with C—H = 0.96 Å and U_iso(H) = 1.5U_eq(C). All other H atoms were located in a difference Fourier map and refined isotropically.

Special details

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R-factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
