Stereoselective total synthesis of (.+-.)-invictolide. An efficient preparation of a trisubstituted .delta.-lactone from aldol precursors
摘要:
The stereoselective total synthesis of (+/-)-invictolide (1), a component of the queen recognition pheromone of Solenopsis invicta, is described. The TiCl4-mediated addition of silyl ketene thioacetal 8 to (+/-)-3-(benzyloxy)-2-methylpropionaldehyde afforded exclusively thioester 10, in 65% yield, which was straightforwardly converted to diol 5 (ca. 31% yield). Diol 5 was also prepared after LiAlH4 reduction of the major aldol formed in the condensation between the lithium enolate of 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenyl propanoate and (+/-)-2-methylvaleraldehyde (ca.50% overall yield). Intramolecular alkylation (t-BuOK-THF) of 6 or 7 gave a 40:60 mixture of (+/-)-1 and its C(3) epimer. Catalytic hydrogenation of unsaturated lactone 17 afforded (+/-)-1 in 80% yield.

Addition of trans-3-trimethylsilyl-pent-2-ene to derivatives of glutaric anhydride and meso-2,4-dimethylglutaric anhydride leads to precursors of the PRELOG-DJERASSI lactone and related δ-lactones.
The Lewis acid mediated reaction of the meso-dimethylglutaric hemialdehyde (2) with pent-3-en–2-yltributyltin (1) gave the anti-Cram erythro isomer (4) predominantly, while the reaction of the (±)-isomer (3) produced the Cram erythro derivative (5) preferentially.
