Transformation of montanin A into isocrotocaudin. A revision of the structures of crotocaudin and isocrotocaudin
摘要:
Starting from montanin A (3) compound 11 was obtained by opening of the C-20,C-12 gamma-lactone (6), oxidation of the C-12 hydroxyl group (9), relactonization to the beta, gamma-unsaturated gamma-lactone (10) via the C-12 enol form, and final selective air oxidation of the alpha,beta,beta'-trialkyl furan to the corresponding alpha,beta-unsaturated gamma-lactone (11). Compound 11 was identical to isocrotocaudin, to which structure 1 has previously been assigned only on spectroscopic grounds. The above transformation establishes that the previous 8S configuration of isocrotocaudin (1) and its related C-6,C-10 stereoisomer crotocaudin (2) must be corrected to 8R.
