A process is described for the synthesis of kilogram quantities of homochiral 4-silyloxycyclopentenone (R)-1, a key intermediate useful for the synthesis of a plurality of prostaglandin analogue drugs. Cyclopentenone (R)-1 was synthesized in 14 isolated steps from furfural. Key steps in the synthesis include a Wittig reaction, Piancatelli rearrangement, and an enzymatic resolution featuring in situ
Benzotriazole-Mediated Conversions of Aromatic and Heteroaromatic Aldehydes to Functionalized Ketones
摘要:
Aromatic and heteroaromatic aldehydes reacted with benzotriazole and triethyl orthoformate in THF to give the corresponding alpha-(benzotriazol-1-yl)aryl ethyl ethers 7 in good yield. The novel acyl anion precursors 7 underwent smooth lithiation at the methine group followed by trapping with alkyl halides, aldehydes, ketones, and imines to yield the expected substituted intermediates of type 9, which were hydrolyzed under mild conditions without isolation. Benzaldehyde, methyl-, chloro-, and methoxy-substituted benzaldehydes, 1-naphthalenecarboxaldehyde, 2- and 3-furaldehydes, 2- and 3-thiophenecarboxaldehydes, and 2-pyridinecarboxaldehyde were all transformed in this manner into a variety of aryl and heteroaryl ketones with alkyl (10), alpha-hydroxyalkyl (12 and 13), alpha-aminoalkyl (14) and acyl(15) substituents.
aerobic oxidative cyclization of β,γ-unsaturated hydrazones for the preparation of pyrazole derivatives has been developed. The hydrazonyl radical promoted the cyclization, along with a concomitant C═Cbondcleavage of β,γ-unsaturated hydrazones. This process has been verified via several control experiments, including a radical-trapping study, an 18O-labeling method, and the identification of the possible

A process of making furfural-derived ketones is disclosed. These compounds may be useful as marine antifouling agents. The process uses the steps of: reacting a furfural with 1,3-dithiopropane to form a 1,3-dithiane derivative; metalizing the 1,3-dithiane derivative to form a metalodithiane derivative; reacting the metalodithiane derivative with a halide or pseudohalide to form a ketone precursor; and hydrolyzing the ketone precursor to form a furyl ketone.
Reaction of acid chlorides with lithium pentamethylcyclopentadienide afforded the corresponding pentamethyl-cyclopentadienyl ketones in high yield. These ketones were treated with an allylaluminum reagent to form the corresponding 3-butenyl alcohols. Removal of pentamethylcyclopentadiene upon heating or treatment with a catalytic amount of trichloroacetic acid yielded the corresponding β,γ-unsaturated

2-diarylation of alkenyl ketones with aryl iodides and arylboronic esters is reported. Ketones with a variety of substituents serve as effective directing groups, offering high levels of regiocontrol. A representative product is diversified into a wide range of useful products that are not readily accessible via existing 1,2-diarylation reactions. Preliminary mechanistic studies shed light on the binding
A novel and efficient strategy for the synthesis of 1,6-dihydropyridazines via copper-promoted 6-endo-trig cyclization of readily available β,γ-unsaturated hydrazones have been developed. A series of 1,6-dihydropyridazines have been synthesized by this method with good yields, high functional group tolerance, and remarkable regioselectivity under mild conditions. Importantly, the 1,6-dihydropyridazines
