Alkenyltin derivatives flanked by a hydroxylgroup are subject to methoxycarbonylation when treated with catalytic amounts of Pd(OAc)2 and Ph3As in MeOH under a CO atmosphere; key to success is the use of 1,4-benzoquinone as a stoichiometric oxidant in combination with trifluoroaceticacid as a cocatalyst. The acid lowers the LUMO of the quinone and likely marshals the critical assembly of the substrates
Synthesis and biological evaluation of 12-, 13-, 14-membered macrolides and open chain 2,6-trans-disubstituted dihydropyran analogues for aspergillides
Stereoselective synthesis of twenty (three 12-, five 13- and twelve 14-membered) macrolides and seventeen functionalized 2,6-trans-disubstituted dihydropyran derivatives have been achieved. The key reactions include an Achmatowicz rearrangement, Ferrier-type alkynylation, Yamaguchi macrolactonization and Lindlar’s hydrogenation. Biological screening of the synthesised compounds showed moderate activity

The stereoselective total syntheses of (+)-aspergillide B and (+)-7-epi-aspergillide A were achieved. The key reactions include Noyori's asymmetric transfer hydrogenation, an Achmatowicz rearrangement, a Ferrier-type alkynylation, a hydrosilylation–protodesilylation, a CBS (Corey–Bakshi–Shibata) oxazaborolidine reduction, a Yamaguchi macrolactonization, and a Mitsunobu macrolactonization.

Competition experiments and measurements of enantioselectivities were used to develop a simple active-site model (Figure 1) for resolutions of beta-hydroxy-alpha-methylene carbonyl compounds III via acyl transfers mediated by lipase from Pseudomonas sp. (AK). Further experiments were used to test and refine this model with respect to resolutions of allylic, propargylic, homopropargylic, and other alcohols (Tables I-IV, respectively). The model proved extremely reliable for predicting the sense of the asymmetric induction, and the combined data collected in this paper give an indication of what structural features of the substrates can be correlated with high enantioselectivities in these resolutions. Furthermore, the results account for the conspicuous reversal of enantioselectivity previously observed in resolutions of gamma-hydroxy-alpha,beta-unsaturated esters 35. Kinetic resolutions of two substrates (allenol 14 and dienol 9) via asymmetric epoxidations were performed for comparison with the methodology presented in this paper.
