A strategic approach to [6,6]-bicyclic lactones: application towards the CD fragment of DHβE
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report an effective synthetic protocol to access [6,6]-bicyclic lactone moieties through a regio- and stereoselective intramolecular Mizoroki-Heck cross-coupling reaction followed by a 6π-electrocyclization. This method enabled the first synthesis of the elusive CD fragment of the Erythrina alkaloid DHβE. Preliminary pharmacological evaluations support the notion that the key pharmacophores of DHβE are located in the A and B rings.

متن کاملSynthesis of oxygen heterocycles via alkynyltungsten compounds*
This short review article covers some useful applications of alkynyltungsten compounds to the syntheses of complex lactones. Two types of cyclizations will be emphasized: (1) cycloalkenylation of tungsten-alkynol compounds with aldehydes to give α-alkylidene oxacarbeniums, further leading to α-alkylidene lactones and (2) intramolecular [3+2]-cycloaddition of epoxides to give bicyclic lactones. ...
متن کاملAn application of logarithmic fuzzy preference programming-based AHP and FRS techniques to develop and prioritize strategic objectives
Vital decisions made at the strategic level in an organization are not only intricate but also costly to alter. It is therefore important to find a comprehensive approach to deal with such a possibility. One of the major problems of a common balanced scorecard (BSC)-based model in strategic management is lack of a ranking system for strategic objectives in order to enable prioritization of the ...
متن کاملSynthesis and Polymerizability of Atom-Bridged Bicyclic Monomers
The synthesis and polymerizability of atom-bridged bicyclic monomers was surveyed. The monomers included lactams, ureas, urethanes, lactones, carbonates, ethers, acetals, orthoesters, and amines. Despite widely-varying structures, they almost all polymerized to give polymers with monocyclic rings in the chain. The polymerizations are grouped by mechanism: uncoordinated anionic, coordinated anio...
