Selective bromochlorination of a homoallylic alcohol for the total synthesis of (−)-anverene
نویسندگان
چکیده
The scope of a recently reported method for the catalytic enantioselective bromochlorination of allylic alcohols is expanded to include a specific homoallylic alcohol. Critical factors for optimization of this reaction are highlighted. The utility of the product bromochloride is demonstrated by the first total synthesis of an antibacterial polyhalogenated monoterpene, (-)-anverene.

Copper-catalyzed C-C bond-forming transformation of CO2 to alcohol oxidation level: selective synthesis of homoallylic alcohols from allenes, CO2, and hydrosilanes.
A highly selective carbon-carbon bond-forming transformation of carbon dioxide (CO2) to alcohol oxidation level has been disclosed. By employing a copper/bisphosphine catalyst system and hydrosilanes as mild and easy-to-handle reducing agents, various allenes can be reacted with CO2 to regioselectively obtain homoallylic alcohols. Esters and other reducible functionalities on the allenes remain...

The nanoparticles of Ti-Si mixed oxides (NTSO) with Rutile structure were prepared by sol-gel method in a mixture of alcohol and water as solvent. The solid product was characterized by XRD, FTIR, SEM, TEM, UV, TGA and laser Raman spectroscopy. The catalytic activity of NTSO (5-10 nm) was investigated in the epoxidation of cis stilbene, trans stilbene, and norbornene by using oxidants such as t...
متن کاملDistal-Selective Hydroformylation using Scaffolding Catalysis
In hydroformylation, phosphorus-based directing groups have been consistently successful at placing the aldehyde on the carbon proximal to the directing group. The design and synthesis of a novel catalytic directing group are reported that promotes aldehyde formation on the carbon distal relative to the directing functionality. This scaffolding ligand, which operates through a reversible covale...
متن کاملShort asymmetric synthesis of phenanthroindolizidines through chiral homoallylic sulfinamines.
An efficient stereocontrolled preparation of chiral phenanthroindolizidines is detailed. The synthesis relies on the stereoselective indium-mediated allylation of 2-(phenanthren-9-yl)acetaldehyde derivatives with chiral tert-butylsulfinamide. Chemoselective transformations from the corresponding homoallylic sulfinamine allow the synthesis of the phenanthroindolizidines in only three synthetic o...
