چکیده

We describe a concise synthesis of (+)-isoaltholactone via a Au-catalysed cyclisation of a monoallylic diol to form the tetrahydrofuranyl ring. Analogous cyclisations show that the stereochemical outcome is dictated by the stereochemistry of the diol substrate.

A novel oxidative cyclisation onto vinyl silanes.

A novel osmium-catalysed oxidative cyclisation of 1,2-diols bearing a pendant vinyl silane affords THFs that contain silicon functionality at the ring junction. When the cyclisation occurs onto a vinyl benzyldimethylsilyl group, the resulting silyl group can act as a masked hydroxyl group and undergo a Fleming-Tamao type oxidation at a later stage to form the corresponding lactol. The scope of ...

Palladium-catalysed cyclisation of alkenols: Synthesis of oxaheterocycles as core intermediates of natural compounds

The study of Pd-catalysed cyclisation reactions of alkenols using different catalytic systems is reported. These transformations affect the stereoselective construction of mono- and/or bicyclic oxaheterocyclic derivatives depending on a starting alkenol. The substrate scope and proposed mechanism of Pd-catalysed cyclisation reactions are also discussed. Moreover, the diastereoselective Pd-catal...

TFP as a ligand in Au(I)-catalyzed dihydropyran synthesis. Unprecedented rearrangement of dihydropyrans into cyclopentenones.

Dihydropyrans have been prepared by the cyclisation of easily accessible propargyl vinyl ethers with (TFP)AuCl/AgBF(4) as a catalyst in high yields. These compounds undergo acid-catalysed rearrangement into cyclopentenone derivatives.

Stereoselective synthesis of 2,4,5-trisubstituted piperidines by carbonyl ene and Prins cyclisations.

An approach to 2,4,5-trisubstituted piperidines is reported, in which the key step is the Prins or carbonyl ene cyclisation of aldehydes of the type 1. Prins cyclisation catalysed by concentrated hydrochloric acid in CH(2)Cl(2) at -78 degrees C afforded good yields of two of the four possible diastereomeric piperidines, with the 4,5-cis product 7 predominating in a diastereomeric ratio of up to...
