Total synthesis of cleomiscosin C via a regioselective cycloaddition reaction of o-quinone
摘要:
We have achieved total synthesis of cleomiscosin C (aquillochin) through regioselective cycloaddition of o-quinone and protected sinapyl alcohol as a key step. During preparation of o-quinone from phenol by IBX oxidation, silyl substituents adjacent to the phenolic hydroxyl group afforded effective inhibition of an undesired oxidative elimination.

Various types of hydroxyacetophenones are efficiently converted into the corresponding ethylene acetals in the presence of ethane-1,2-diol, triisopropyl orthoformate, and a catalytic amount of cerium(III) trifluoromethanesulfonate under mild reaction conditions. The homologous trimethylene acetals can be also prepared in the same way.
