The thermal isomerization of the sesquiterpenes isovelleral and merulidial. A reversible ring opening of the cis-methylcyclopropanecarboxaldehyde group via an intramolecular ene reaction.
摘要:
Fungal sesquiterpene dialdehydes of marasmane and isolactarane types, such as isovelleral (1) and merulidial (7), undergo a reversible thermal rearrangement to products (e.g., 2 and 8) with inverted orientations of the cyclopropane rings. The process is shown to involve an intramolecular ene reaction with a bicyclic enol intermediate 13 which was trapped as an E-silyl ether 17. In the presence of D2O, deuterium is incorporated quantitatively into the C-12 methyl groups of 1 and 2. A high kinetic isotope effect is observed for the rearrangement of 1 and its deuterated analogue 24, and the reaction parameters are comparable to those reported for the thermal ring-opening reactions of cis-alkylvinylcyclopropanes and cis-alkyl cyclopropyl ketones. In the presence of weak acid or base, an equilibrium is established between 1, 2, and the hydroazulenic dialdehydes 14 and 15. Dialdehyde 7 reacts less cleanly and incorporates deuterium not only at C-13 but also at C-1 (26). The latter process presumably involves enolization via a [1,5] sigmatropic hydrogen shift.

triketide triaceticacidlactone (5), forming pentacyclic pyranone adducts. In buffered water solutions, the reaction rates of merulidial (1) and its less active isomer 2 are strongly correlated with the antibiotic activity of the two, suggesting that their electrophilicity as Michael acceptors is important for this activity. The adduct 7, formed between merulidial and triaceticacidlactone, is identical
The mechanism of the thermal rearrangement of the marasmane sesquiterpene (+)-isovelleral. Cyclopropane ring closure via an intramolecular ene reaction
The reversible thermal conversion of the fungal sesquiterpene Isovelleral (2) into (1) is a unique Intramolecularenereaction proceeding via the bicyclic enol (3), which is demonstrated by kinetic studies, deuterium incorporation, and the trapping of (3).

(+)-Isovelleral, an antibiotic and antifeedant sesquiterpene dialdehyde from Basidiomycetes, has been synthesised via a diastereoselective intramolecular Diels–Alder cyclisation of a chiral intermediate derived from D-ribonolactone.
