Synthetic Applications of Baylis-Hillman Chemistry: An Efficient and Solely Stereoselective Synthesis of (E)-.ALPHA.-Methylcinnamic Acids and Potent Hypolipidemic Agent LK-903 from Unmodified Baylis-Hillman Adducts
A facile one-pot stereoselective synthesis of trisubstituted (E)-2-methylalk-2-enoic acids from unactivated Baylis–Hillman adducts and a simple access to some important insect pheromones
An efficient one-pot stereoselective synthesis of trisubstituted (E)-2-methylalk-2-enoic acids has been accomplished by treatment of unactivated Baylis-Hillman adducts, 3-hydroxy-2-methylencalkanoates, with Al-NiCl2-6H(2)O in methanol at room temperature followed by hydrolysis. The method has been applied to the synthesis of three important insect pheromones, (4S,2E)-2,4-dimethyl-2-hexenoic acid, (+)-(S)-manicone and (+)-(S)-normanicone. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd.

A simple and convenient stereoselective synthesis of [E]-alpha-methylcinnamic acids via the nucleophilic addition of hydride ion from sodium borohydride to methyl 3-acetoxy-3-aryl-2-methylenepropanoates followed by hydrolysis and crystallization is described. Efficacy of this methodology in the synthesis of [E]-p-(myristyloxy)-alpha-methylcinnamic acid, an active hypolipidemic agent, and [E]-p-(carbomethoxy)-alpha-methylcinnamic acid, a valuable synthon for an orally active serine protease inhibitor, is also demonstrated.
Synthetic Applications of Baylis-Hillman Chemistry: An Efficient and Solely Stereoselective Synthesis of (E)-.ALPHA.-Methylcinnamic Acids and Potent Hypolipidemic Agent LK-903 from Unmodified Baylis-Hillman Adducts
An efficient and solely stereoselective synthesis of (E)-α-methylcinnamic acids has been accomplished in single pot by reduction of the unmodified Baylis–Hillman adducts, methyl-3-hydroxy-3-aryl-2-methylenepropanoates with I2/NaBH4 reagent system at room temperature followed by hydrolysis. The efficacy of this method has been proved in the total synthesis of 1-[p-(myristyloxy)-α-methylcinnamoyl]glycerol, LK-903, a highly active hypolipidemic agent.
