Abstract: | The trimethylsilyl-protected enynes 9a-c and 14a,b with alkynyl substituents on the three-membered ring or on the double bond of a methylenecyclopropane or a bicyclopropylidene moiety were prepared in two steps from the alcohols 6a-c and 12a,b, respectively, by conversion to the iodides and their coupling with lithium (trimethylsilyl)acetylide (8) in 38-73% overall yields. The bicyclopropylidene derivative 9d was synthesized in 49% yield directly from bicyclopropylidene (3) by lithiation followed by coupling with (5-iodopent-1-ynyl)trimethylsilane (11). Enynes 9b-d were protiodesilylated by treatment with K2CO3 in methanol to give the corresponding unprotected enynes 10b-d in 53, 74 and 94% yield, respectively. Enynes 17a-c with a carbonyl group adjacent to the acetylenic moiety were synthesized from oxo derivatives 15a-c by Wittig olefination followed by coupling with 8 in 47, 18 and 12% overall yield, respectively. Pauson-Khand reactions of the methylenecyclopropane derivatives with a substituent on the ring (9a,b and 10a) as well as on the double bond (14a,b and their in situ prepared protiodesilylated analogues) proceeded smoothly by stirring of the corresponding enyne with [Co2(CO)8] in dichloromethane at ambient temperature followed by treatment of the formed complexes with trimethylamine N-oxide under an oxygen atmosphere at -78 degrees C to give tricyclic or spirocyclopropanated bicyclic enones 18a,b, 19a, 20a,b, 21a,b in good yields. Alkynylbicyclopropylidene derivatives 9c,d and 10c,d formed the corresponding cobalt complexes at -78 to -20 degrees C. Treatment of the latter with N-methylmorpholine N-oxide under an argon atmosphere at -20 degrees C gave the spirocyclopropanated tricyclic enones 18c, 19c and 18d in 31-45% yields. The structure of 19c was proved by X-ray crystal structure analysis. The cyclization of enynones 17a-c in MeCN at 80 degrees C gave the spirocyclopropanated bicyclic diketones 22a-c in 38-65% yields. Intramolecular PKRs of the enynes 25a,d with a chiral auxiliary adjacent to the triple bond gave the corresponding products 26a,d in 70 and 79% yield, respectively, as 5:1 and 8:1 mixtures of diastereomers, respectively. Addition of lithium dimethylcuprate or higher order cuprates to the double bond of the former furnished bridgehead-substituted bicyclo[3.3.0]octanones 27a-c in 57-86% yields. Protiodesilylation of 27a followed by acetal cleavage gave the enantiomerically pure spirocyclopropanated bicyclo[3.3.0]octanedione (1R,5R)- 29a with [alpha]D(20)=-148 (c=1.0 in CHCl3) in 55% overall yield. |
