Controlling Regiochemistry in the Gold-Catalyzed Synthesis of Unsaturated Spiroketals
摘要:
A novel gold-catalyzed synthesis of unsaturated spiroketals that addresses regioselectivity issues commonly reported in metal-catalyzed spiroketalization of alkynes is reported. The reaction sequence is regulated by an acetonide protecting group which undergoes extrusion of acetone to deliver the desired spiroketals in good yields and diastereoselectivities. The reaction, which is carried out under very mild conditions employing AuCl as the catalyst, should be widely applicable in the synthesis of a broad range of spiroketals.

The gold-catalyzed cyclization of monopropargylic triols to form olefin-containing spiroketals is reported. The reactions are rapid and high yielding when 2 mol % of the catalyst generated in situ from Au[P(t-BU)(2)(o-biphenyI)]Cl and AgOTf is employed in THF at 0 degrees C. A range of differentially substituted triols leading to substituted 5- and 6-membered ring spiroketals were prepared and function well in the reaction.
