Brief syntheses of (±)-methyl shikimate, (±)-methyl epishikimate and structural variants

Two brief syntheses of (±)-methyl shikimate are described in a strategy which offers potentially flexible access to a range of analogues. New intramolecular rearrangement reactions of epoxides derived from methyl 7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-3-ene 6-carboxylate and methyl bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-3-ene 6-carboxylate are described.     

The Homoconjugated Electron-Releasing Carbonyl Group of 1-Methylbicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-2-one. Regioselective syntheses of 5-chloro- and 6-chloro-1-methylbicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-2-one

Syntheses of (±)-2-exo-cyano-1-methyl-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-2-endo-yl acetate ( 1 ) and of (±)-1-methyl-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-2-one ( 2 ) are reported. The additon of PhSeCl to 1 afforded (±)-5-endo-chloro-2-exo-cyano-1-methyl-6-exo-(phenylselenenyl)-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-endo-yl acetate ( 6 ), whereas 2 added to PhSeCl with the opposite regioselectivity giving (±)-6-endo-chloro-1-methyl-5-exo-(phenylselenenyl)-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-one ( 7 ). These adducts were converted into 5-chloro-1-methyl-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-2-one ( 9 ) and 6-chloro-1-methyl-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-2-one ( 10 ), respectively.     

Interaction between Oxygen Lone-Pair Orbitals of Ether and α,β-Unsaturated Ketone Functions in 3,5,6-Trimethylidene-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-one and 3,6-Dimethylidene-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-2,5-dione: A PE-Spectroscopic Investigation

Controlled ozonolysis of 2,3,5,6-tetramethylidene-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane ( 1 ) afforded 3,5,6-trimethylidene-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-one ( 2 ). Ozonolysis of 2 gave a 1:1 mixture of 3,5-dimethylidene-7-oxa-bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-2,6-dione ( 3 ) and 3,6-dimethylidene-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-2,5-dione ( 4 ). The He(Iα) photoelectron (PE) spectra of 2 and 4 have been recorded. Comparison with the PE data of related systems, and with the result of ab initio STO-3G calculations, confirm the existence of significant through-bond interactions between the oxygen lone-pair orbitals n(CO) of the carbonyl functions and n(O) of the O(7) ether bridge.     

The electron-releasing homoconjugated carbonyl group. Application to the total syntheses of 3-deoxy-, 4-deoxy-hexose, lividosamine and derivatives

The regioselective electrophilic addition of benzeneselenyl bromide to (−)-(1S,4S)-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]-hept-5-en-2-one were exploited to develop efficient syntheses of methyl 3-deoxy--D-arabino-hexofuranoside and 4-deoxy-D-lyxo-hexopyranose. Similarly, D-lividosamine (3-deoxy-D-glucosamine) was derived from (+)-(1R,4R)-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-2-one.     

Ironcarbonyl Complexes of 5,6-Dimethylidene-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-ene Derivatives. Synthesis of Substituted Tricarbonyl(ortho-quinodimethane)iron Complexes and 2-Indanones

The l-dimethoxymethyl-5,6-dimethyldene-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-ene ( 9 ) has been prepared. On treatment with Fe₂(CO)₉, the endocyclic double bond C(2)?C(3) was coordinated first giving the corresponding exo-Fe(CO)₄ complex 10 . The latter reacted with Fe₂(CO)₉ and afforded cis-heptacarbonyl-μ-[1RS,2SR,3RS,4SR,5RS,6SR-2,3-η: C5,6,C-η-(1-(dimethoxymethyl)-5,6-dimethylidene-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-ene)]diiron ( 11 ) as a major product. On heating, 11 underwent deoxygenation of the 7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptene moiety yielding tricarbonyl[C,5,6,C-η-(1-(dimethoxymethyl)-5,6-dimethylidenecyclohexa-1,3-diene)]iron ( 13 ). In MeOH, a concurrent, regioselective methoxycarbonylation was observed giving tricarbonyl[C,3,4,C-η-(methyl 5-(dimethoxymethyl)-3,4-dimethylidenecyclohexa-1,5-diene-1-carboxylate)]iron ( 14 ). Oxidative removal of the Fe(CO)₃ moiety in 13 and 14 did not afford the expected ortho-quinodimethane derivatives but led to CO insertions giving 2,3-dihydro-2-oxo-1Hindene-4-carbaldehyde ( 20 ) and methyl 7-formyl-2-3-dihydro-2-oxo-lH-indene-5-carboxylate ( 21 ), respectively.     

Synthesis of chiral 2-furyl and 3-nitro-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane derivatives from sugars

Asymmetric Diels–Alder reactions between 2-methylfuran and chiral (E)-1,2-dideoxy-1-nitroalkenes derived from d-mannose and d-galactose were carried out at room temperature, under 13 kbar pressure. The processes were completely regioselective, and only the four adducts with penta-O-acetyl-1′-C-(4-methyl-3-nitro-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-2-yl)pentitols structures were formed in each case. These adducts, as well as those arising from cycloadditions of the same nitroalkenes and furan, have been converted into chiral derivatives, such as 2-furyl substituted 1-nitrosugars, 2-glyco-4-methyl-3-nitro-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptanes, and 5,6-exo-epoxy-2-glyco-3-nitro-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-enes.     

Stereocontrolled transformation of nitrohexofuranoses into cyclopentylamines via 2-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptanes. Part 6: synthesis and incorporation into peptides of the first reported 2,3-dihydroxycyclopentanecarboxylic acid

Herein we report the intramolecular alkylation of nitronates of methyl-5-O-benzyl-3,6-deoxy-6-nitro-β-d-glucofuranoside and methyl-5-O-benzyl-3,6-deoxy-6-nitro-α-d-glucofuranoside into the corresponding 2-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane derivatives. Similarly, methyl-3-O-benzyl-5-deoxy-5-nitromethyl-β-d-xylofuranoside and methyl-3-O-benzyl-5-deoxy-5-nitromethyl-α-d-xylofuranoside were cyclized to (1R,3R,4S,5R,7R)-7-benzyloxy-3-methoxy-5-nitro-2-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane and (1R,3S,4S,5R,7R)-7-benzyloxy-3-methoxy-5-nitro-2-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane, respectively. These 2-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane derivatives were eventually transformed into enantiopure methyl (1S,2S,3R,4S,5R)-2-amino-2,3-dihydroxycyclopentanecarboxylate and this novel β-amino acid was incorporated into peptides.     

Acid-Catalyzed Rearrangements of 5,6-exo-Epoxy-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-yl Derivatives. Migratory Aptitudes of Acyl vs. Alkyl Groups in Wagner-Meerwein Transpositions

In the presence of HSO₃F/Ac₂O in CH₂CL₂, 2-exo- and 2-endo-cyano-5,6-exo-epoxy-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-yl acetates ( 6a , b ) gave products derived from the epoxide-ring opening and a 1,2-shift of the unsubstituted alkyl group (σ bond C(3)–C(4)). In contrast, under similar conditions, the 5,6-exo-epoxy-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-one ( 6c ) gave 5-oxo-2-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-3,7-diyl diacetates 20 and 21 arising from the 1,2-shift of the acyl group. Acid treatment of 5,6-exo-epoxy-2,2-dimethoxy-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane ( 6d ) and of 5,6-exo-epoxy-2,2-bis(benzyloxy)-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane ( 6e ) gave minor products arising from epoxide-ring opening and the 1,2-shift of σ bond C(3)–C(4) and major products ( 25 , 29 ) arising from the 1,3-shift of a methoxy and benzyloxy group, respectively. Under similar conditions, 5,6-exo-epoxy-2,2-ethylenedioxy-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane ( 6f ) gave 1,1-(ethylenedioxy)-2-(2-furyl)ethyl acetate ( 32 , major) and a minor product 33 , arising from the 1,2-shift of σ bond C(3)–C(4). The following order of migratory aptitudes for 1,2-shifts toward electron-deficient centers has been established: acyl > alkyl > alkyl α-substituted with inductive electron-withdrawing groups. This order is valid for competitive Wagner-Meerwein rearrangements involving equilibria between carbocation intermediates with similar exothermicities.

Total asymmetric syntheses of d-lividosamine and 2-acetamido-2,3-dideoxy-d-arabino-hexose derivatives.

The “naked sugar” (+)-(1R, 4R)-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-one((+)-2) has been converted to D-lividosamine ((+)-1: 3-deoxy-D-glucosamine) and derivatives via (+)-2-chloro-2,3-dideoxy-5,6-O-isopropylidene-D-arabino-hexono-1,4-lactone ((+)-33) and (+)-2-azido-2,3-dideoxy-5,6-O-isopropylidene-D-ribo-hexono-1,4-lactone ((+)-34) in a highly stereoselective fashion. Similarly, 2-acetamido-2,3-dideoxy-D-arabino-hexose and derivatives were derived from the “naked sugar” (−)-(1S,4S-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]-hept-5-en-2-one ((−)-2) via the double hydroxylation of the C=C double bond in (−)-N-benzyl-N-[(1R,2S,4S)-6-bromo-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-2-endo-yl] amine ((−)-40).     

Construction of bicyclic systems containing an oxygen bridge by isomerization of cyclic epoxy alcohols

A novel method for constructing a 7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane skeleton was developed. The substrates, namely cis-3,4-epoxy-1-cyclohexanol derivatives, were prepared from the corresponding 3-cyclohexen-1-ol derivatives via a stereoselective epoxidation reaction using a vanadium catalyst. Upon heating with lithium iodide in propionitrile, the cis-epoxy alcohol was transformed into the 7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane derivative in high yield. The reaction proceeds through formation of a lithium alkoxide bearing an iodohydrin moiety, followed by an intramolecular S_N2 reaction.     

Substituent effects on the regioselectivity of the baeyer-villiger oxidation of 7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-ones

New 3-oxy substituted and 3,6-dioxydisubstituted 7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-ones have been prepared. The regioselectivity of their Baeyer-Villiger oxidation has been determined and compared with that of other 7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-one derivatives. If the substituent at C(3-exo) is an O-acyl or another group less electron-releasing, the bridgehead C(1) migration is favoured, leading to 2,8-dioxabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-3-ones. When the substituent at C(3) is a MeO or (tBu)Me₂SiO group, the Baeyer-Villiger oxidation leads to 3,8-dioxabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-2-ones due to preferred C(3) migration. The latter regioselectivity is higher for 3-endo-MeO than for 3-exo-MeO substituted ketones and it can be enhanced by remote oxy substituents at the C(6-endo) position.     

Rearrangements of 6-methoxycarbonyl 7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-enes under prévost's reaction conditions

The rearrangement of 7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-enes to 2-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane derivatives, when reacted with iodine and silver acetate, provides further insight into the migratory preferences of alkyl groups involved in Wagner-Meerwein 1,2-bond shifts in unbiased situations.     

Polar vs steric effects in the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions of acetonitrile oxide and 2-endO-acetoxy-5-halo-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-2-exo-carbonitrile

The regioselectivity of the cycloaddition reactions between acetonitrile oxide and a number of 7-oxabicyclo[ 2.2.1]hept-5-enes is discussed. Acetonitrile oxide adds with complete regioselectivity to 2-endo-acetoxy-5-halo-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-2-exo-carbonitriles. Kinetic measurements indicate a more polar transition state for 2a than for the unsubstituted substrate la

Optical resolution of 7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-21-ene derivatives. Diastereoselectivity in the formation of cyanohydrine-brucine complexes

A new, practical method for the optical resolution of bicyclic ketones if illusttrated by the preparation of (+)-(1R,4R)-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]bept-5-en-2-one ((+)- 1 ) and (+)-(1R, 2S,4R)-2-cyano-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-2-yul acetate ((+)- 4 ). It involves the diastereoselective formation of a brucine complex with the corresponding cyanhydrine mixture.     

Synthesis of Bicyclic Isocyanates and Bioisosteric 1,3-Disubstituted Ureas as Soluble Epoxide Hydrolase Inhibitors

Russian Journal of Organic Chemistry - (1S)-1-Isocyanato-4,7,7-trimethyl-2-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-3-one and 2-isocyanatobicyclo[2.2.1]-hept-5-ene were prepared by the Curtius rearragement reaction...     

Chemo- and Stereoselective Coordination of 5,6-Dimethylidene-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-ene by d8- and d6-Metal Carbonyls. Diels-Alder reactivity of Dienes Perturbed by Remote Olefin Complexation

The endocyclic double bond C(2), C(3) in 5,6-dimethylidene-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]-hept-2-ene ( 1 ) can he coordinated selectively on its exo-face before complexation of the exocyclic s-cis-butadiene moiety. Irradiation of Ru₃(CO)₁₂ or Os₃(CO)₁₂ in the presence of 1 gave tetracarbonyl [(1R,2R, 3S,4S)-2,3-η-(5,6-dimethylidene-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]-hept-2-ene)]ruthenium ( 6 ) or -osmium ( 8 ). Similarly, irradiation of Cr(CO)₆ or W(CO)₆ in the presence of 1 gave pentacarbonyl[(1R, 2R, 3S,4S)-2,3-η-(5,6-dimethylidene-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-ene)]chromium (10) or -tungsten (11) . Irradiation of complexes 6 and 11 in the presence of 1 led to further CO substitution giving bed-tricarbonyl-ae-bis[(1R,2R,3S,4S)-2,3-η-(5,6-dimethylidene-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-ene)]ruthenium ( 7 ) and trans-tetracarbonyl[(1R,2R,3S,4S)-2,3-η-(5,6-dimethylidene-7-oxabicyclo-[2.2.1]hept-2-ene)]tungsten (12) , respectively. The diosmacyclobutane derivative cis-m?-[(1R,3R,3S,4S)-(5,6-dimethylidene-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hepta-2,3-diyl)]bis(tetracarbonyl-osmium) (Os-Os) (9) wa also obtained. The Diels-Alder reactivity of the exocyclic s-cis-butadiene moiety in complexs 7 and 8 was found to be significantly higher than that of the free triene 1 .     

Acid-Catalyzed Rearrangement of 3-Aza-8-oxatricyclo[3.2.1. 02,4]octan-6-one Acetals. Highly Stereoselective Total Synthesis of 3-Amino-3-deoxy-D-altrose and Derivatives

Ethyl and tert-butyl azidoformate added to 7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-2-one dimethyl ( 5 ) and dibenzyl ( 6 ) acetals to give mixtures of regioisomeric triazolines. The latter gave the corresponding aziridines (6,6-dialkoxy-3-aza-8-oxatricyclo[3.2.1.0^2,4]octane-3-carboxylates 15 , 19 , 23 , and 27 and 31 ) on UV irradiation. In the presence of protic acids, the aziridines were rearranged into protected amines ([3-endo-alkoxy-5-oxo-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-exo-yl]carbamates 16 , 20 , 24 , and 28 and 33 ). Using (+)-(1R, 4R)-5,5-bis(benzyloxy)7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-ene((+)- 6 ) derived from furan and l-cyanovinyl (1S)-camphanate, the method was applied to prepare 2-O-benzyl-3-[(tert-butoxy)carbonyiamino]-5-O-(3-chlorobenzoyl)-3-deoxy-β-D -altrofuranurono-6,1-lactone ((?)- 37 ). This compound was converted to methyl 3-amino-3-deoxy-α-D-altropyranoside hydrochloride ( 44 ) and several derivatives.     

Face Selectivity of the Diels-Alder Additions of Sulfur-Substituted Dienes and Tetraenes Grafted onto 7-Oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptanes

Stereoselective synthesis of 2-methylidene-3-[(Z)-(2-nitrophenylsulfenyl)methylidene]-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]-heptane ( 16 ), 1,4-epoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-5,8-dimethoxy-2-methylidene-3-[(Z)-(2-nitrophenylsulfenyl)methylidene]anthracene ( 18 ), and 1,4-epoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-5,8-dimethyoxy-2-methylidene-3-[(Z)-(phenylsulfenyl)-methylidene]anthracene ( 19 ) are presented. The Diels-Alder additions of these S-substituted dienes and those of 2,5-dimethylidene-3,6-bis{[(Z)-(2-nitrophenyl)sulfenyl]methylidene}-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane ( 17 ) have been found to be face selective and ‘ortho’ regiospecific. The face selectivity depends on the nature of the dienophile. It is exo-face selective with bulky dienophiles such as ethylene-tetracarbonitrile (TCNE) and 2-nitro-1-butene and endo-face selective with methyl vinyl ketone, methyl acrylate, and 3-butyn-2-one. In the presence of a Lewis acid, the face selectivity of the Diels-Alder reaction can be reversed. The addition of the first equivalent of a dienophile to tetraene 17 is at least 100 times faster than the addition of the second equivalent of the same dienophile to the corresponding mono-adduct. The X-ray structure of the crystalline bis-adduct 43 , a 7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hepta-2,5-diene system annellated to two cyclohexene rings, resulting from the successive additions of methyl acrylate and methyl vinyl ketone to tetraene 17 is presented. Only one of the two endocyclic double bonds of the 7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hepta-2,5-diene deviates from planarity, the substituents bending towards the endo face by 5.7°.
