Ring-opening aldol-type reaction of 2,2-dialkoxycyclopropanecarboxylic esters with carbonyl compounds. 3. The diastereoselective synthesis of 2,3,4-trisubstituted .gamma.-lactones
摘要:
The Lewis acid-promoted reaction of 3-alkyl-2,2-dialkoxycyclopropanecarboxylic esters 1d-h with aldehydes to give 2,3,4-trisubstituted gamma-lactones was investigated. The diastereoselectivity of this reaction is highly dependent on the catalyst employed. Thus while the ZrCl4-promoted reaction gave (2alpha,3alpha,4beta)-trisubstituted gamma-lactones in good yields with excellent selectivity, the SnBr4-promoted reaction was moderately selective for (2alpha,3alpha,4alpha)-trisubstituted gamma-lactones. The present reaction was applied to the synthesis of (+)589- and (-)589-dihydropertusaric acid (26). Comparison of the spectroscopic and physical data of synthetic 26 with those of a 4-alkyl-3-carboxy-2-methyl gamma-lactone isolated from the lichen Pertusaria albescens revealed that the relative stereochemistry of the natural gamma-lactone was not (2beta,3beta,4alpha), as reported by Huneck and his co-workers, but rather (2beta,3alpha,4alpha); that is, the natural gamma-lactone was not (-)589-dihydropertusaric acid (26), but (-)589-pertusarinic acid (27).

Abstract The structures of two γ-lactone carboxylic acidsfrom the lichen Pertusaria albescens , (−)-allo-pertusaric acid and (−)dihydropertusaric acid, have been elucidated by spectroscopic and chemical methods. From P. ophthalmiza , taraxerone and a mixture of long chain aliphatic alcohols and fatty acids have been isolated.
