Stereoselective construction of quaternary carbon centers. Synthesis of optically active γ,γ-disubstituted γ-butyrolactones.
摘要:
An unusually strong solvent effect has been observed on the diastereoselectivity of nucleophilic additions of bromoalkylmagnesium compounds to the lactols 2 and 3, allowing the formation of pure diastereoisomers of 1,4-diols. Homochiral gamma,gamma-disubstituted gamma-butyrolactones could then be obtained after oxidation of these diols followed by a retro Diels-Alder reaction as illustrated by the synthesis of S-(+)-4,5-dimethyl-4-hexanolide.

Continuous nucleophilic addition with several organometallic reagents to tricyclic lactone (-)-1 proceeded diastereoselectively. Newly generated tertiary and quaternary asymmetric centers were controlled by the order in which the nucleophilic reagents were added. Using this methodology, enantiodivergent syntheses of several gamma-substituted butenolides with tertiary and quaternary asymmetric centers were established from a single chiral material.
