Enantioselective reduction of 4-chromanone and its derivatives by selected filamentous fungi
摘要:
Biotransformation of 4-chromanone and its derivatives in the cultures of three biocatalysts: Didymosphaeria igniaria, Colyneum betulinum and Chaetomium sp. is presented. The biocatalysts were chosen due to their capability of enantiospecific reduction of low-molecular-weight ketones (acetophenone and its derivatives and alpha- and beta-tetralone). The substrates were reduced to the respective S-alcohols with high enantiomeric excesses, according to the Prelog's rule. In the culture of Chaetomium sp. after longer biotransformation time an inversion of configuration of the formed alcohols was also observed. The highest yield of transformation was observed for 6-methyl-4-chromanone. In all the tested cultures, the higher was the molecular weight of a chromanone, the lower conversion percent was observed.

Syntheses of 2,2-dimethylchromene-5,8-quinone, 2,2-dimethylchromene-6,7-quinone, and 6,7-dimethoxy-2,2-dimethylchromene-5,8-quinone are described. Being easily bioreducible to electron-rich chromenes these compounds, and their oxirane derivatives, are of interest as possible anti-tumour alkylating agents.

report a novel strategy for the design and construction of natural and natural product-like librariesbased on the principle of privileged structures, a term originally introduced to describe structural motifs capable of interacting with a variety of unrelated molecular targets. The identification of such privileged structures in naturalproducts is discussed, and subsequently the 2,2-dimethylbenzopyran
The gram-scale synthesis of 5,6-, 6,7-, and 7,8-chromene/chromane-type aryne precursors and their applications in regioselective transformation to other functional derivatives is reported. Chromene/chromane-type arynes are generated under mild conditions, which can further undergo [2 + 2], [3 + 2], and [4 + 2] cycloaddition reactions, nucleophilic addition reactions, and σ-insertion reactions to produce
The palladium-catalyzed coupling reaction of iodophenols (1) with 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol gave alkynylphenols (2). Catalytic hydrogenation of 2 over Raney nickel and the subsequent dehydration of the resultant alkylphenols (3) gave regioselectively the desired prenylphenols (4). Dehydration of alkylphenols (3f-h) gave chromans (7).

The practical enantioselective syntheses of decursinol angelate and decursin were achieved in eight steps from resorcinol. The stereochemistry was addressed using the catalytic asymmetric epoxidation of 7-acetoxy-2,2-dimethylchromene by chiral (salen)Mn complexes as the key step. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd.
