Synthesis, optical resolution and absolute configuration of inherently chiral calixarene carboxylic acids

Both enantiomers of inherently chiral calixarene carboxylic acids with ABCD substitution patterns have been prepared by the benzoylation of 25-propoxy-27-(R)-N-(α-phenylethyl)amidomethyloxycalix[4]arene followed by resolution of the diastereomers formed, monobromination of them and removal of the benzoyl and α-phenylethylamide auxiliary groups. The absolute configuration of the calixarenes obtained has been established by X-ray analysis. Preliminary study of the chiral recognition properties of calixarene carboxylic acid was performed.     

Advances in liquid crystalline conjugated polymers

We review advances in liquid crystalline (LC) conjugated polymers by focusing on (i) ferroelectric and (ii) photoresponsive LC conjugated polymers. In Part 1, LC polyphenylene derivatives were synthesized through substitution of fluorine‐containing chiral LC groups into side chains. Poly(para‐phenylene) [ P1 ] and poly(meta‐phenylene) [ P2 ] derivatives showed chiral smectic C phases responsible for ferroelectricity. They exhibited quick response to electric field, giving switching times of <1 s between two bistable states. The spontaneous polarization (P_S) of P2 remained unchanged even after the electric field became zero, affording the residual polarization (P_R) whose value was the same as that of P_S. This indicates that P2 has a potential memory function based on FLC nature. In Part 2, poly(para‐phenylenevinylene) [ P5 ] and poly(bithienylene‐phenylene) [ P6 ] derivatives were synthesized by introducing dithienylethene moieties into side chains. Drastic quenching of fluorescence occurred when the photoresponsive moiety changed from an open form to a closed one upon an irradiation of ultraviolet light. The quenched fluorescence was recovered through a photoisomerization from the closed form to the open one. Macroscopically aligned P6 film exhibited a linearly polarized fluorescence with significant anisotropy. Reversible quenching and emitting behavior in anisotropic fluorescence was controlled by the photochemical switching. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Highly Efficient Asymmetric Synthesis of Vinylic Amino Alcohols by Zn‐Promoted Benzoyloxyallylation of Chiral N‐tert‐Butanesulfinyl Imines: Facile and Rapid Access to (−)‐Cytoxazone

An efficient and convenient α‐hydroxyallylation approach for the asymmetric synthesis of a variety of β‐amino‐α‐vinyl alcohols has been successfully developed. A wide range of vinylic amino alcohol derivatives could be obtained in very good yields and with excellent diastereomeric ratios of up to 99:1 in favor of anti isomers by highly diastereoselective Zn‐promoted benzoyloxyallylation of chiral N‐tert‐butanesulfinyl imines with 3‐bromopropenyl benzoate at room temperature. In particular, excellent enantioinduction of the two new stereogenic centers was observed, with up to 98 % ee. The method provides a new route for the direct α‐hydroxyallylation of imines in a highly stereoselective manner. Moreover, the synthetic value of the method has also been demonstrated by the most concise and straightforward synthesis of (?)‐cytoxazone yet reported.     

Enantioselective Total Synthesis of Brevetoxin A: Unified Strategy for the B,E, G,and J Subunits

Brevetoxin A is a decacyclic ladder toxin that possesses 5‐, 6‐, 7‐, 8‐, and 9‐membered oxacycles, as well as 22 tetrahedral stereocenters. Herein, we describe a unified approach to the B, E, G, and J rings based upon a ring‐closing metathesis strategy from the corresponding dienes. The enolate technologies developed in our laboratory allowed access to the precursor acyclic dienes for the B, E, and G medium‐ring ethers. The strategies developed for the syntheses of these four monocycles ultimately provided multigram quantities of each of the rings, supporting our efforts toward the completion of a convergent synthesis of brevetoxin A.
