Synthesis of Alkyl-Substituted Six-Membered Lactones through Ring-Closing Metathesis of Homoallyl Acrylates. An Easy Route to Pyran-2-ones, Constituents of Tobacco Flavor
摘要:
The ring-closing metathesis (RCM) reactions of homoallylic acrylates bearing alkyl substituents on various positions of their skeleton afford the corresponding pentenolides in the presence of carbene ruthenium catalysts. For R-3 = R-4 = H, or R-3 = Me, R-4 = H, the reactions are catalyzed by complex [RuCl2(PCy3)(2)(CHPh)], while a second-generation Grubbs catalyst is required when R-3 = H and R-4 = Me, R-3 = R-4 = Me, or R-3 = i-Pr and R-4 = H. Alkyl substitution at the homoallylic carbon (R-1, R-2) increases the yield of the reaction when both the acrylic and/or homoallylic double bonds are methyl-substituted. The interaction of the catalyst with the substrate in the initiation stage involves the homoallylic double bond rather than the acrylic moiety, and the resulting alkylidene species from the first-generation Grubbs catalyst can be observed by H-1 and P-31 NMR. The racemic tobacco constituents 4-isopropyl-5,6-dihydropyran-2-one and 4-isopropyltetrahydropyran-2-one are prepared via a short reaction sequence, involving the RCM reaction as the key transformation.

Synthesis of both enantiomers of a novel sesquiterpene, isolated as the putative sex pheromone of a Brazilian predatory stink bug (Tynacantha matginata Dallas) and proposed to have an unprecedented tricyclic carbon framework, was accomplished through an intramolecular Diels - Alder cyclization of a single optically active triene intermediate and separation of a pair of structural isomers derived from the resulting cycloadducts.

The enantioselective reductive dicarbofunctionalization of internalalkenes has been developed to enable the formation of vicinal stereogenic centers. This protocol allows for facile synthesis of chiral pyrrolidinones bearing vicinal or quaternary stereocenters with excellent enantio- and diastereoselectivities. DFT calculations suggest that the enantiodetermining step is intramolecular migratory insertion

Nearly all known terpenes are built from the two C5 precursors DMAPP and IPP. This work characterizes several bacterial DMAPP and IPPmethyltransferases that convert these buildingblocks in C6, C7 and C8 prenyl pyrophosphates with selectivity on deprotonation sites and stereoselectivity.
