Reductive Coupling of Terpenic Allylic Halides Catalyzed by Cp2TiCl: A Short and Efficient Asymmetric Synthesis of Onocerane Triterpenes
摘要:
Titanocene chloride catalyzes the regioselective alpha,alpha '-homocoupling of terpenic allylic halides. This process has been employed in the short and effective synthesis of terpenoids such as beta-onoceradiene (1), beta-onocerin (2), and squalene (3). Evidence is presented for eta(1)-allyltitanium species being involved in the coupling.

The first totalsynthesis of potentanti-inflammatory polypodanes (+)-myrrhanol A (1), (+)-myrrhanone A (2), (+)-myrrhanone B (3), and (+)-myrrhanol B (4) has been achieved. Key steps in our convergent, highly stereocontrolled route are a Ti(III)-mediated radical cyclization of a chiral monoepoxide to furnish a bicyclic synthon that combines stereospecifically with an acyclic vinyl iodide via an intermolecular

The enantioselective synthesis of 3(S)-hydroxy polygodial and its acetyl derivative is described. The construction of the 3-hydroxy drimane skeleton was based on the titanium-catalyzed radical cyclization of (10S)-10, 11-epoxy-farnesyl acetate. Only underivatized 3(S)-hydroxy polygodial showed activity in assays on VR1 vanilloid receptor in HEK cells transfected with the human VR1. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
