A combined experimental and computational strategy in the assignment of absolute configurations of 4-methyl-5-oxo-tetrahydrofuran-3-carboxylic acids and their esters
摘要:
Enantiopure cis- and trans-4-methylparaconic acids and their alkyl esters were synthesized by a procedure involving the kinetic enzymatic resolution of diastereomeric lactonic esters. Thus, ethyl cis- and trans-4-methyl-5-oxo-tetrahydrofuran-3-carboxylates were isolated, at high conversion values, with 99% ee from the hydrolyses with HLAP and alpha-CT, respectively. The corresponding enantiopure cis- and trans-lactonic acids were also obtained. The absolute configurations of the products were assigned by chemical correlation, by analysis of their circular dichroism spectra and by electronic structure calculations. All three methodologies lead to the same assignment for the species considered, another example of successful interplay between experiment and theory. (C) 2005 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
The asymmetric Michael addition of propionaldehyde to (2E)-(3-nitro-but-2-enyloxymethyl)-benzene 8, catalyzed by the chiral diamine (S,S)-N-iPr-2,2′-bipyrrolidine, afforded, with 93% ee, a precursor 9 of (−)-botryodiplodin. The nitro functionality of 9 was converted to a ketone via a Nef reaction to give, after a few steps, the enantiomerically enriched (−)-botryodiplodin.

Conjugateaddition of lithium methylcyanocuprate to the titlealdehydes proceeded with high diastereoselectivity (d.e. 94%). Methyl lithium 1,2-addition, followed by Swern oxidation of the resultingalcohols, gave benzyl botryodiplodin and benzyl epi-botryodiplodin.Hydrogenolysis of the benzyl groups gave the enantiomeric pairs ofbotryodiplodin 10r and 10s and epi-botryodiplodin (9r and 9s).

Beta-Bromopropargyl ethers 2a-h, 11, and 12 or allyl propargyl ethers 8d-h are easily isomerized with potassium tert-butoxide (KO-t-Bu) into the corresponding allenyl derivatives 3a-h, 13, 14, and 9d-h. These compounds afford alpha-methylene-gamma-butyrolactones 7a-h, 25, and 26 by application of the sequence halogenation/dehydrohalogenation/homolytic carbocyclization. Starting from methyl vinyl ketone 1i, similar transformations lead to botryodiplodin (27) or ethoxybotryodiplodin (28).
