A potentially general regiospecific synthesis of substituted quinones from dimethyl squarate
摘要:
A potentially general regiospecific synthesis of benzo- and naphthoquinones is described. This method starts with dimethyl squarate (1), which is converted to the cyclobutenone ketal 3 upon sequential treatment with an organolithium reagent and then BF3 etherate or TFAA in THF/methanol. Treatment of these with a second lithium reagent followed by hydrolysis gives the cyclobutenones 5. Addition of an alkynyl-, alkenyl- or aryllithium agent to 5 followed by hydrolysis of the ketal linkage gives the corresponding 4-alkynyl- 4-alkenyl- or 4-aryl-4-hydroxycyclobutenones 7-9, and these readily rearrange to the respective quinones or hydroquinones upon thermolysis in refluxing benzene. In a similar fashion, 15 was employed as a reagent to prepare mono- and disubstituted hydroquinones and quinones.

di-tert-butylsilyl (DTBS) ethers to protect electron-rich benzyl alcohols toward ionization under acidic conditions. We also developed an improved protocol for selective o-bromination of phenols utilizing N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) and tetramethylguanidine (TMG) that promises to be generally useful. Finally, we developed a modular approach for the synthesis of isoquinolones and dihydro-5H-oxazolo[3,2-b]isoquinoline-2
多环黄酮抗生素citreamicamicinη的五环核的短时11步合成已经完成。尽管基本方法是由我们先前对多环蒽酮化学的探索启发而来的,但本报告对摩尔重排有一些新见解,并对我们的原始方法进行了一些改进,包括将芳基锂添加到方酸酯中,将乙炔铈铈添加到受阻酮中。利用PDA作为内部指示剂,以及使用环状二叔丁基甲硅烷基(DTBS)醚保护富含电子的苄醇在酸性条件下不被电离。我们还开发了用于选择性的改进的协议ø利用酚的-bromination N-有望普遍使用的溴代琥珀酰亚胺(NBS)和四甲基胍(TMG)。最后,我们开发了一种用于合成异喹诺酮和二氢-5H-恶唑并[3,2 - b ]异喹啉-2,5(3H)-二酮的模块化方法,该方法具有烷氧基羰基化,丙酮芳基化,酰胺基转移的新序列。

A total synthesis of the aglycone of IB-00208 was accomplished in 22 steps using a newly developed approach towards polycyclic 1,4-dioxygenated xanthones from benzocyclobutenones. The generality of this entry to xanthones was initially established on several model systems before it was successfully applied to the construction of the hexacyclic core of the natural product. A new and potentially general

Hexacyclic xanthone natural products such as IB-00208 present a formidable challenge in organic synthesis. A new approach to polycyclic 1,4-dioxygenated xanthones from benzocyclobutenones has been developed and applied to the first total synthesis of the aglycone of IB-00208. The 22-step synthesis features an acetylide stitching process that joins an aryl aldehyde with an angularly fused benzocyclobutenone

polycyclic xanthone natural products that have not yet yielded to total synthesis. A concise 11-step synthesis of the pentacyclic core of citreamicin η is now reported that features the use of a general approach for the synthesis of 1,4-dioxygenated xanthones. The synthesis also showcases improved techniques for effecting regioselective bromination of certain substituted phenols and coupling of acetylides
