The furan approach to oxacycles: synthesis of medium-size 2,3-disubstituted oxacycles
摘要:
We describe an efficient new approach for the synthesis of medium-size oxacycles that is based on the oxidation of a furan ring with singlet oxygen followed by an intramolecular Michael addition. This present study enlarges the scope of the furan approach strategy for the synthesis of oxepanes. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

2,3-Disubstituted oxepanes 3 and 4 were stereoselectively synthesized from methoxyallene (1) and iodide 2. The trans stereochemistry of diol 3 was established by NMR studies of the bicyclic precursor 10, while the cis stereochemistry of 4 was secured by using the highly diastereoselective reducing agent L-Selectride.
We describe an efficient new approach for the synthesis of seven-membered oxacycles that is based on the oxidation of a furan ring with singlet oxygen followed by an intramolecular Michael addition.
