Efficient synthesis of (1S,5S)-4-alkyl-6,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.1.1]hept-3-en-2-ones from (1R,5S)-(+)-nopinone and preparation of some chiral building blocks suitable for the asymmetric synthesis
摘要:
A general and convenient transformation of (1R,5S)-(+)-nopinone (1) into (1S,5S)-4-alkyl-6,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.1.1]hept-3-en-2-ones, i.e., (-)-verbenone (6a) as the simplest compound and its C(4)-alkyl homologs 6b-f, via (+)-apoverbenone (7) is developed and applied, starting with 6a,e, to the syntheses of (4R,5R)-1-acetoxy-4-isopropenyl-5-methyl-5-vinyl-1-cyclohexene (12a) and (4R,5S)- and (4R,5R)-1-acetoxy-5-(3-butenyl)-4-isopropenyl-5-methyl-1-cyclohexene (12b and 12c), in connection with a search for chiral building blocks suitable for the asymmetric synthesis. Preparation of 12a indicates the formal synthesis of the elemanoid sesquiterpenes (-)-beta-elemenone and (-)-eleman-8beta,12-olide.
