Rh(I)-Catalyzed [(3 + 2) + 1] Cycloaddition of 1-Yne/Ene-vinylcyclopropanes and CO: Homologous Pauson−Khand Reaction and Total Synthesis of (±)-α-Agarofuran
摘要:
A novel Rh(I)-catalyzed [(3 + 2) + 1] cycloaddition, which can be regarded as a homologous Pauson-Khand reaction, was developed to synthesize bicyclic cyclohexenones and cyclohexanones, enabling a new approach for synthesis of six-membered carbocycles ubiquitously found in natural products and pharmaceutics. The significance of the Rh-catalyzed [(3 + 2) + 1] cycloaddition has been demonstrated by the total synthesis of a furanoid sesquiterpene natural product, a-agarofuran, in which the bicyclic skeleton was constructed by the [(3 + 2) + 1] reaction of 1-yne-VCP and CO.

sesquiterpene oxide α-agarofuran in methanol leads to rearrangement to the perhydroazulene system, in addition to simple double-bond migration to β-agarofuran. This rearrangement apparently proceeds through a carbonium-ion-like intermediate, whereas conventional generation of a carbocation leads only to opening of the oxide ring without rearrangement.
