Lactones 23: Synthesis of cis-fused bicyclic hydroxy lactones with a p-menthane system
摘要:
Enantiomeric pairs of cis-fused bicyclic hydroxy lactones with a p-menthane system were obtained in a several step synthesis from enantiornerically pure isomers of (+)-(R)- and (-)-(S)-pulegone. One-pot allyl-Claisen rearrangement of cis-pulegols, epoxidation of gamma,delta-unsaturated p-nitrophenyl esters and acidic lactonization of epoxy esters are key synthetic steps. The structures of the compounds were confirmed by both spectroscopic and crystallographic methods. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
