An ynolate-initiated tandem process giving cyclopentenones: total synthesis of cucumin E
摘要:
A total synthesis of cucumin E, a novel type of triquinane natural product, has been accomplished. The strategy is based on an ynolate-initiated tandem [2+2] cycloaddition-Dieckmann condensation, followed by decarboxylation, giving cyclopentenones. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd.

The sesquiterpene (±)-ceratopicanol [(±)-1] was synthesized by a route based on Claisen rearrangement (7 → 8) and radical cyclization (16α, 16β → 17α, 17β). Certain limitations on vinyl radical cyclization were observed, and so the required radical was generated by titanium-induced opening of an epoxide.

Cycloalkenyl acetylenes 4, which are easily prepared from allylic alcohols by Claisen rearrangement and homologation (1 --> 4), generally undergo radical cyclization (4 --> 6) on treatment with stannyl radicals. The products (6) can themselves be converted into allylic alcohols, so that the annulation sequence can then be repeated. In certain cases enyne cyclization initiated by stannyl radicals does not work, but an alternative process (cf. Scheme 9) of epoxide opening with bis(cyclopentadienyl)titanium(III) chloride can then be used. Di- and triquinanes (Scheme 3) were made by the stannyl radical approach; the epoxide route was used to prepare a simple propellane (Scheme 4) and in a synthesis of (+)-ceratopicanol (Schemes 5 and 9).
