(1'S,2R,3R)-3-(1'-tert-Butyldimethylsilyloxy-1'-phenylmethyl)-2-(4''-methylphenylthio)-2-nitrooxirane

W. Clegg and M. R. J. Elsegood

The title compound, C₂₂H₂₉NO₄SSi, displays an anomeric effect in the marked shortening of one C-O bond relative to the other in the oxirane ring, concomitantly weakening the C-S bond to the arylthio substituent. This correlates with the selective reactivity of nucleophiles at the C atom having the longer C-O bond. The absolute configuration has been determined from anomalous scattering effects.

Comment top

The title compound, (I), was prepared as one of a series of (arylthio)nitrooxiranes during the development of stereoselective syntheses of protected β-hydroxy-α-amino acids (Adams et al., 1999). The original purpose of the crystal structure determination was to establish the relative stereochemistry of the epoxide ring and the adjacent C atom bearing the phenyl and protected hydroxyl groups, in order to demonstrate the stereoselectivity of the synthetic procedures. In fact, the Si and S atoms in the molecule provide sufficient anomalous scattering to enable the absolute configuration to be determined unambiguously, and it is shown in Fig. 1. It is as expected from the starting material used in the synthesis.

Further interest in the structure arises from the electronic effects of the nitro and arylthio substituents on the bond lengths of the epoxide ring. We have recently shown that a marked asymmetry in the C—O bond lengths of such rings in a number of substituted oxiranes can be ascribed to a generalized anomeric effect, in which a lone pair of electrons on the ring oxygen atom interacts with the antibonding orbital associated with the bond to the heteroatom substituent (here the arylthio group), thus weaking this bond and strengthening the corresponding ring C—O bond (Jackson et al., 2003). This effect is particularly marked with (arylthio)nitrooxiranes, and is believed to be responsible for the selective reaction of these oxiranes with nucleophiles at the carbon atom giving the longer C—O bond.

A search of the Cambridge Structural Database (Version 5.24 plus two updates, June 2003; Allen, 2002) provides known structure for five oxiranes with a nitro substituent (Bowman et al., 1991; Hartshorn et al., 1983; Jackson et al., 1995; Szarek et al., 1988) and five oxiranes with an alkylthio or arylthio substituent (Hewkin et al., 1991; Jackson et al., 1995; Krishnakumar et al., 2002; Valle et al., 1988), two of these structures having both types of substituent. The title compound is thus the third structurally characterized example of an (arylthio)nitrooxirane. In all of these structures, the C—O bond adjacent to the nitro and/or thio substituent is shortened relative to the other C—O bond, though the difference is much more marked in some cases than in others.

Of the three (arylthio)nitroxiranes, the shorter C—O bond of the title compound, adjacent to the nitro and arylthio substituents, has essentially the same length as those in the other two structures [C1—O1 = 1.391 (2) Å, compared with 1.398 (7) and 1.394 (2) Å], but the longer C—O bond is somewhat shorter than the corresponding bond in the other two structures [C2—O1 = 1.448 (2) Å, compared with 1.463 (6) and 1.466 (2) Å]. This fact correlates well with the fact that the title compound is by far the least reactive towards nucleophiles; for example, it requires treatment at 353 K for 6 h with aqueous ammonia, whereas the other compounds react completely within 2 h at room temperature (Jackson, 2003). This is further evidence that the ground-state molecular geometry, resulting from the anomeric effect, influences reactivity, although the larger steric bulk of the substituents in the title compound may also contribute.
