摘要:
Endocyclization of 1-alkyn-5-ols occurs in the presence of tungsten pentacarbonyl-THF complex to give cyclic six-membered tungsten oxacarbenes which are easily converted to alpha-stannyl enol ethers by treatment with Bu3SnOTf and Et3N. These stannylated dihydropyrans undergo organocuprate-mediated alkylation to provide 6-(2-propynyl)-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrans. Oxidation of these propargylated dihydropyrans with m-CPBA followed by reduction with Et3SiH under Lewis acid conditions generates another trans-fused 1-alkyn-5-ol. Repetition of this process provides are iterative synthesis of trans-fused polypyrans.
