Novel stereoselective construction of a quaternary carbon: application to synthesis of the cyclopentenedione moiety of madindolines
摘要:
Enantioselective synthesis of the cyclopentenedione moiety of madindolines was achieved. Stereoselective construction of a quaternary carbon was realized by alkylation of an enolate possessing chiral auxiliary. Cyclopentenedione was derived from a triketone precursor by intramolecular condensation. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

Synthetically useful β,γ-unsaturated carbonyl compounds having a quaternary carbon at the α-position were prepared with high stereoselectivity by the reaction of a dienolate anion derived from α,β-unsaturated imide having a chiral auxiliary and electrophiles (ethylacetate and allyl iodide as the C2 and C3 unit, respectively). This method was applied to a short asymmetric synthesis of (+)-ethosuximide
Ketene N,O-acetals were prepared stereoselectively and submitted to a Lewis acid-mediated 1,3-rearrangement to afford C-alkylated products. The reactions proceeded in a stereoselective manner to construct a chiral quaternary carbon in high selectivity. The stereochemistry of the quaternary center was found to be opposite to that obtained by an anionic direct dienolate alkylation.
