Asymmetric Synthesis of the Volatile Anesthetic 1,2,2,2-Tetrafluoroethyl Chlorofluoromethyl Ether Using a Stereospecific Decarboxylation of Unusual Stereochemical Outcome
摘要:
Acid 1 is optically resolved by diastereomeric amide formation/chromatography/hydrolysis. Decarboxylation of the enantiomers of acid 1 gives the enantiomers of ether 2 with a very high degree of stereospecificity. The absolute configurations of both the starting acid and the ether product are determined to be (R)-(+) and(S)-(-). The data indicate that decarboxylation occurs with clean inversion of configuration. A mechanism is proposed to rationalize this. unusual result. The enantiomers of ether 2 are converted to diastereomers of the volatile anesthetic 3 by a route consisting of trichlorination of the methyl group to give 9, monofluorination to yield 10, and monoreduction to afford the target anesthetic.
