onyl azide and potassium t-butoxide at −78 °C in THF. A Wolff rearrangement of the resulting α-diazoketones in the presence of water gave ring-contraction products, bicyclo[2.2.1]heptenecarboxylic acids. Using these two transformations the total synthesis of (±)-camphorenone was achieved stereoselectively, starting from 1-methoxybicyclo[2.2.2]oct-5-en-2-one.
双环[3.2.1]oct-6-en-2-ones和相关化合物的直接重氮转移反应是通过在-78°C的THF中用2,4,6-
三异丙基苯磺酰基
叠氮化物和
叔丁醇钾处理来完成的。在
水的存在下,所得α-重
氮酮的沃尔夫重排得到环收缩产物,双环[2.2.1]庚烯
羧酸。使用这两个转化,从 1-甲氧基双环 [2.2.2] oct-5-en-2-one 开始,立体选择性地实现了 (±)-
樟脑酮的全合成。
