Total Synthesis of Tetrahydrolipstatin and Stereoisomers via a Highly Regio- and Diastereoselective Carbonylation of Epoxyhomoallylic Alcohols
نویسندگان
چکیده
A concise enantioselective synthesis of tetrahydrolipstatin (THL) and seven stereoisomers has been achieved. The synthesis of THL was accomplished in 10 steps and 31% overall yield from an achiral ynone. Key to the success of the approach is the use of a bimetallic [Lewis acid](+)[Co(CO)4](-) catalyst for a late-stage regioselective carbonylation of an enantiomerically pure cis-epoxide to a trans-β-lactone. The success of this route to THL and its stereoisomers also demonstrated the practicality of the carbonylation catalyst for complex molecule synthesis as well as its functional group compatibility.

The first SeO(2) induced (Z)-selective allylic alcohol formation of dialkyl alkylidenesuccinates has been demonstrated to accomplish one-step syntheses of several essential butenolides and fused butenolides via an unusual E- to Z- carbon-carbon double bond isomerisation followed by the lactonization pathway. The observed regio- and stereoselective SeO(2) allylic oxidation protocol has also been...

[reaction: see text] Treatment of hydroxy-substituted silyl epoxides with Grignard reagents induces a 1,2-carbon shift to reveal alpha-silyl aldehydes, which are trapped by highly diastereoselective addition reactions of the Grignard reagent. The starting epoxides are readily accessible from propargylic alcohols by regio- and diastereoselective hydrosilylation and epoxidation reactions. In addi...

A highly regio- and stereoselective CuCl-mediated carbometallation reaction of 3-aryl-substituted secondary propargylic alcohols with alkyl, aryl, vinyl or allyl Grignard reagents for the synthesis of fully-substituted allylic alcohols was developed. The R(2) group from the Grignard reagent was successfully introduced to the 2-position of the propargylic alcohols due to the chelation of metal a...
