铑和手性螺环磷酸协同催化α-芳基重氮酮对醇的O-H键的不对称插入反应

过渡金属催化卡宾对O-H键的不对称插入反应是合成手性醇及其衍生物的直接方法.近年来,人们发展了多种手性催化剂实现了重氮酯衍生的金属卡宾对醇、酚、羧酸甚至水的O-H键的高对映选择性插入反应,但是重氮酮作为卡宾前体的不对称O-H键插入反应鲜有成功的例子.以非手性双铑络合物和手性螺环磷酸组成的协同催化体系,首次实现了α-重氮酮对醇的O-H键的不对称插入反应,获得了较高的收率和高达95%ee的对映选择性.反应为手性α-烷氧基酮这类重要手性化合物提供了高效的合成方法.还通过密度泛函理论计算,对反应机理进行了初步研究,发现水很可能参与了手性磷酸促进的烯醇中间体质子转移过程.

Stereoselective Substrate‐Controlled Asymmetric Syntheses of both 2,5‐cis‐ and 2,5‐trans‐Tetrahydrofuranoid Oxylipids: Stereodivergent Intramolecular Amide Enolate Alkylation

The concise, highly stereoselective, substrate‐controlled asymmetric total syntheses of both 2,5‐cis‐ and 2,5‐trans‐tetrahydrofuranoid nematocidal oxylipids from the Australian brown algae Notheia anomala have been accomplished in a stereodivergent fashion. The highly stereoselective intramolecular amide enolate alkylation strategy provides access to both stereoisomers of the 3‐hydroxy‐2,5‐disubstituted tetrahydrofuran core of these marine natural products through chelate and nonchelate control, which is driven by the C3‐hydroxy protecting group. This approach offers an optional and highly stereoelective access to any of the eight possible stereoisomers of the 2,5‐disubstituted‐3‐oxygenated tetrahydrofuran skeleton, an important structural feature which is present in many biologically active natural products.     

Total Synthesis and Stereochemical Revision of Iriomoteolide‐2a

Total syntheses of the proposed and correct structures of iriomoteolide‐2a, a cytotoxic marine macrolide natural product with an unusual 23‐membered macrolactone skeleton, have been accomplished for the first time. The synthesis of the correct structure involves an asymmetric epoxidation/diepoxide cyclization cascade for the construction of the bis(tetrahydrofuran) moiety, a Suzuki–Miyaura coupling for the fragment assembly, and a ring‐closing metathesis for the closure of the macrocyclic backbone. In addition, the original stereochemical assignment of iriomoteolide‐2a was revised.

Stereoselective synthesis of the octahydroisobenzofuran skeleton of the eunicellins

A de novo asymmetric synthesis of the octahydroisobenzofuran skeleton contained within the eunicellin family of natural products has been completed. The key transformations involve the convergent assembly of a tetrasubstituted tetrahydrofuran by condensation of a functionalised allylsiloxane with an aldehyde; controlled epimerisation of a C4 aldehyde by intramolecular trapping; installation of the isopropyl substituent by stereoselective Michael addition to a 5,5-bicyclic enone; and ring expansion of the 5,5-system to the target structure by radical-mediated cyclopropane fragmentation.

The key strategies used include: 1) a Rh^I-catalyzed regio- and diastereoselective Hayashi-Miyaura reaction to connect two necessary fragments; 2) an intramolecular photoenolization/Diels–Alder (PEDA) reaction to construct the highly functionalized tricyclic core skeleton bearing a quaternary center; 3) a bio-inspired intramolecular Michael addition and transannular acetalization to generate the aza[4.4.3]propellane and the tetrahydrofuran ring.

Asymmetric Total Synthesis of Cephanolide A

The first asymmetric total synthesis of cephanolide A, a complex hexacyclic C₁₈ dinorditerpenoid from cephalotaxus sinensis, was achieved. The synthesis features a convergent strategy, which provides a flexible approach to prepare the biogenetically cephalotaxus diterpenoids and structurally related derivatives for biological studies. A mild intramolecular Prins cyclization was developed to construct the central hexahydrofluorenol skeleton (A-B-C ring), which relies on the originally proposed hydroacylation strategy. A remote hydroxy group directed hydrogenation was applied to stereospecifically reduce the tetra-substituted enone unit. A sequence of ring forming steps, including lactonization, cation mediated etherification and Friedel–Crafts cyclization, was efficiently utilized to forge the cage-like skeleton.     

Short New Route to the Chiral Spiro‐Tetrahydrofuran Subunit Common to Some Terpenoids

Copper(I)-catalyzed intramolecular asymmetric [2 + 2] photocycloaddition. Synthesis of both enantiomers of cyclobutane derivatives

[reaction: see text] A simple approach for asymmetric induction in Cu(I)-catalyzed [2 + 2] photocycloaddition, where asymmetric catalysts or chiral auxiliaries were inefficient, has been developed using the concept of chirality transfer from the readily available 2, 3-di-O-cyclohexylidine-(R)-(+)-glyceraldehyde. An anion-induced cleavage of the tetrahydrofuran ring of the resulting oxa-bicyclo[3.2.0]heptanes led to a convenient access to the synthetically useful cis-1,2-disubstituted cyclobutanes in enantiomerically pure form.
