Enantioselective Total Synthesis of 1-epi-Pathylactone A
摘要:
The first enantioselective total synthesis of 1-epi-pathylactone A, 3, has been accomplished using a PhI(OAc)(2)-mediated domino reaction as a key step. No diastereomeric separation was required throughout the whole synthetic scheme presented in this paper. Comparison of H-1 and C-13 NMR spectral data of the synthetic product with the reported spectral data of natural pathylactone A, coupled with an X-ray crystallographic analysis, led to the conclusion that the C1 configuration in the original paper was erroneously ascribed to (R).
ene-acetals to spontaneously generate 6α-hydroxy-bis-acetals that could serve as precursors for a Cannizzaro-type rearrangement, yielding bis-angularly substitutedcis-fusedlactones. Both the oxidizing reagent, m-CPBA or NaBO 3 , and the substitution pattern can be important in determining the course of the epoxidation/ring-opening sequence, with NaBO 3 being the ideal electrophilic oxidant for the
