Stereocontrolled Oxygenation of Camphor Derivatives as a Prelude to the Complete .beta.-Ring Functionalization of Potential Precursors to Taxol and Structural Analogs Thereof
摘要:
The possibility of realizing the predominant exo a-hydroxylation of camphor-related ketones is described. Both the direct oxidation of enolate anions with 1-phenyl-N-(phenylsulfonyl)oxaziridine or exposure of the derived silyl enol ethers to dimethyl dioxirane are conducive to exo attack. Following conversion to MOM derivatives, the acidity of the alpha-carbonyl proton is reduced sufficiently to allow direct condensation of these hindered ketones with cyclohexenyllithium reagents. The subsequent anionic oxy-Cope rearrangement of the resulting exo carbinols results in direct conversion to tricyclic products that feature the characteristic C-2,C-9,C-10 B-ring oxygenation pattern resident in taxol. Further, the stereogenic centers are introduced in their proper absolute configuration. The steric demands of the [3,3] sigmatropic shift are discussed and the stereochemical features conducive to the minimization of steric compression subjected to experimental verification.
