Key spectral feature of monoalkene carbonation products 3 is as follows: Chemical shift (δ) of CH₂I peak is ca. 3.5 ppm (^¹H NMR), and 5-15 ppm (^¹³C NMR) depending on the diastereomer. Proton and carbon correlation of these resonances is apparent in HSQC spectra of compounds 3.

The structural and stereochemical identity of the iodocarbonate products 4 were confirmed by the conversion of 4f/4g into 7f/7g (Scheme [²] ), respectively, by the radical deiodination as below. Spectra of 7f/7g matched those of the respective products obtained in Au(I) catalysis.^6c For 4o and 4q, relative stereochemistry was based on 1D-NOE spectra.

Scheme 2

The assignment of iodobromination products 5 was based on the following experiments: i) LRMS (CI) fragmentation data containing ⁷⁹Br/^8¹Br isotope, ii) 1D-NOE spectra of 5g, iii) conversion of 5o into 4o′ (diastereomer of 4o) by Ag(I)-promoted carbonation, iv) conversion of 5o into 6o by E₂ elimination (NaOMe), and v) the reaction of 2n with ICl into a mixture of 4n and iodochlorinated product 7n (Scheme [³] ), corresponding to 5n.

For a hydride addition on an alkyne: Strozier R. W., Caramella, P.; Houk, K. N. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1979, 79, 1340; for addition of a weaker nucleophile (olefin in this case) having a later TS, preferential attack of alkyne should be even more pronounced.

However, in the formation of 4h, 4k, and 4n/5n, diastereomeric products having trans-1,2-vicinal relationship between the two methyl bearing centers were not observed. This observation indicates some degree of concertedness of C-C and C-O bond formations (or less likely, stereoelectronically driven nucleophilic trapping of the cationic center).

Typical Procedure for the IBr-Promoted Tandem Cyclization To a solution of 2f (57.3 mg, 0.200 mmol) in CH₂Cl₂ (1 mL) at -78 ˚C was added dropwise a solution of IBr (82.7 mg, 0.400 mmol) in CH₂Cl₂ (1 mL). The mixture was kept stirred at -78 ˚C for 20 min, then aq sat. Na₂S₂O₃ (4 mL) was added at once. The mixture was allowed to warm to r.t. with stirring. Layers were separated, and the aqueous layer was extracted with CH₂Cl₂ (3 × 4 mL). The combined organic layers were dried (MgSO₄), evaporated, and the residue was purified by silica gel chromatography (EtOAc-hexane = 1:6) to yield 57.5 mg (81%) of 4f as a white solid (mp 154-156 ˚C).
