High diastereoselective aldol reactions of cobalt-complexed and uncomplexed propynals with an O-silyl ketene O,S-acetal: highly stereoselective total syntheses of (.+-.)-blastmycinone and its three diastereoisomers from 3-(trimethylsilyl)propynal
摘要:
Total syntheses of (+/-)-blastmycinone (2) and its three diastereoisomers (3-5) are described. The syntheses involve highly stereoselective aldol reactions of cobalt-complexed propynal 6 and uncomplexed propynal 7 with O-silyl ketene O,S-acetal 8, which possesses an n-butyl tether, under Mukaiyama conditions. (+/-)-Blastmycinone (2) and its 2-epimer 3 were stereoselectively synthesized through chelation-controlled reduction, whereas (+/-)-3-epi- and 4-epiblastmycinone (5 and 4) were obtained in a highly stereocontrolled manner with bromolactonization as a key step.

The first rearrangement of 2-methyleneoxetanes to alpha,beta-unsaturated methylketones is reported. It is proposed that when these substrates are heated, the corresponding oxetenes are formed and subsequently undergo electrocyclic ring-opening to methyl vinylketones. In particular, alpha-silyl-alpha,beta-unsaturated methylketones were isolated in moderate to high yields and with high stereoselectivities. Based on the proposed mechanism, density functional theory explains the differential kinetics and stereoselectivities among substrates.
