2 What is a Grob Fragmentation? Heterolytic fragmentation is certain combinations of carbon and hetero atoms which undergo a regulated cleavage into three fragments. Electrofugal Fragment Unsaturated Fragment Nucleofugal Fragment Heteroatoms seen in the Grob Fragmentation include halogens, B, O, N, S, and P. Grob, C. A. Angew. Chem., Int. Ed. 1969, 8, 535.

3 Initial Discoveries Eschenmoser (1952) Grob (1955) Eschenmoser, A.; Frey, A. Helv. Chim. Acta 1952, 35, Grob, C. A.; Baumann, W. Helv. Chim. Acta 1955, 38, 594.

4 Mechanism and Side Reactions Grob fragmentations can proceed in either stepwise or concerted pathways, though the concerted pathway is typically preferred. Prantz, K.; Mulzer, J. Chem. Rev. 2010, 110, Kato, M.; Tooyama, Y.; Yoshikoshi, A. Bull. Chem. Soc. Jpn. 1991, 64, 50.

5 Effects of Nucleophiles/Bases Prantz, K.; Mulzer, J. Chem. Rev. 2010, 110, 3741.

6 Stereoelectronic Requirements For concerted Grob fragmentations, the centers must have anti-periplanar alignment for donation into antibonding orbitals Bottini, A. T.; Grob, C. A.; Schumacher, E.; Zergeny, J. Helv. Chim. Acta 1966, 49, Wharton, P. S.; Hiegel, G. A. Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 1969, 8, 535.

7 Application in Synthesis: Ring Fragmentation Transformation of 1,3-alkyl substitution into carbonyl and alkene Zurflueh, R.; Wall, E. N.; Siddall, J. B.; Edwards, J. A. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1968, 90, Peng, X.-S.; Wong, H. N. Chem. Asian J. 2006, 12, 111.

8 Application in Synthesis: Ring Expansion Larionov, O. V.; Corey, E. J. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2008, 130, 2954.

9 Application in Synthesis: Ring Expansion Zhang, W.; Dowd, P. Tetrahedron Lett. 1996, 37, 957. Thorton, P. D.; Burnell, D. J. Org. Lett. 2006, 8, 3195.

10 Application in Synthesis: Ring Expansion Yoshimitsu, T.; Yanagiya, M.; Nagaoka, H. Tetrahedron Lett. 1999, 40, Maimone, T. J.; Shi, J.; Ashida, S.; Baran, P. S. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2009, 131,

11 Grob-type Fragmentation Variations The Eschenmoser Tanabe Fragmentation (Fragmentation into alkynes) Eschenmoser, A.; Felix, D.; Ohloff, G. Helv. Chim. Acta 1967, 50, 708. Kamijo, S.; Dudley, G. B. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2005, 127, 5028.

12 Grob-type Fragmentation Variations Fragmentation into allenes Transition metal-promoted fragmentation Saget, T.; Cramer, N. Angew. Chem., Int. Ed. 2010, 49, Mori, M.; Kimura, M.; Tanaka, S.; Tamaru, Y. Chem. Commun. 2006, 41, Kimura, M.; Masahiko, M.; Tamaru, Y. Chem. Commun. 2007, 43, 4504.

13 Enzymatic Catalysis Oxidosqualene cyclase (OSC) catalyzes Grob fragmentations of triterpene skeletons Shibuya, M.; et al. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2007, 129, Hoshino, T.; Sato, T. Chem. Commun. 2002, 291.

14 Syn Grob Fragmentations Suprisingly, the endo epoxide is favored to undergo Grob fragmentation over the exo epoxide with anti-alignment The authors suggest that the C 1 -C 2 bond and the C 6 -O are more nearly coplanar in the endo epoxides Holton, R. A.; Kennedy, R. M. Tetrahedron Lett. 1984, 25, 4455.

15 SET-Induced Grob Fragmentations Some SET processes are able to undergo fragmentation in both the syn and anti configurations Hamura, T.; Suzuki, T.; Matsumoto, T.; Suzuki, K. Angew. Chem., Int. Ed. 2006, 45, Wender, P. A.; Manly, C. J. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1990, 112, 8579.

16 Other Interesting Examples Decarboxylative Double Fragmentation Tandem Aldol/Grob Fragmentation Tandem Semipinacol Rearrangement/Grob Fragmentation Sternbach, D.; Jaisli, F.; Bonetti, M.; Eschenmoser, A.; Shibuya, M. Angew. Chem., Int. Ed. 1979, 18, 634. Kabalka, G. W.; Li, N. S. Tejedor, D.; Malladi, R. R.; Trotman, S. J. Org. Chem. 1999, 64, Yuan, D.-Y.; Tu, Y.-Q.; Fan, C.-A. J. Org. Chem. 2008, 73, 7797.

17 Summary The Grob fragmentation is a useful reaction in synthesis -in obtaining functional handles from alkyl 1,3-diol species -in forming medium to large rings in steriocontrolled fashion Variations include use of transition metals, formation of alkynes or allenes, and radical-mediated processes The Grob fragmentation can be used in tandem with a variety of other processes such as the Aldol and Pinnacol reactions
