7-Bromo-1-(trimethylsilyloxy)-naphthalene 2 was subjected to asymmetric formylation by means of (R)-4-ethyl-2-methoxy-3-tosyl-1,3-oxazolidine (1). The enantiomerically pure 1-tetralones u-3 and l-3, bearing a masked formyl group, were elaborated diastereoselectively to achieve the title compounds 11, 13 and 23 by transformation of the 1-oxo group to a tertiary methyl carbinol moiety or a hydroxymethyl group. Subsequently, the formyl group was converted to a long-chain alkene moiety and, finally, the carboxyl group was introduced via bromine-lithium exchange and carboxylation. Difficulties arose from the high dehydration tendencies of the intermediate tertiary alcohols and by facile epimerisation of the free hydroxyaldehydes. With examples for further application of similar strategies it is demonstrated how these problems could be solved.
7-溴-1-(三甲基硅氧基)-萘 2 通过 (R)-4-乙基-2-甲氧基-3-托斯酰基-1,3-噁唑烷 (1) 进行不对称的形式化。在具有掩蔽形式基团的对映体纯的 1-四氢萘酮 u-3 和 l-3 的基础上,通过将 1-氧基转化为三级甲基醇或羟甲基团,选择性地合成了目标化合物 11、13 和 23。随后,形式基团被转化为长链烯烃,最后通过溴-锂交换和羧基化引入了羧基。中间三级醇的高脱水倾向以及游离羟醛的易表异构化导致了一些困难。通过类似策略的进一步应用实例,展示了解决这些问题的方法。
