Influence of the Substituents on the Opening of Silylepoxy Alcohols: 5-exo-Cyclization towards Tetrahydrofurans vs. Unexpected Side Reaction Leading to Tetrahydropyrans.

ABSTRACT: The regioselective ring opening of epoxy alcohols is an effective method for the synthesis of different types of oxacycles. The 5-exo opening being preferred vs. the 6-endo mode, according to Baldwin rules, the use of silyl-substituted oxiranes has been reported as a possible method to favor the 6-endo cyclization. However, there is a need for a detailed study on the different factors (structural factors, catalyst nature or conditions) that influence this process. In this paper, the acid-catalyzed cyclization of epoxysilyl alcohols was studied, focusing on the effect of substituents and reaction conditions on the outcome of the process. Two types of heterocycles (tetrahydrofurans or tetrahydropyrans) were selectively obtained depending on the structure of the initial epoxysilyl alcohol. Interestingly, cyclization of hindered epoxysilyl alcohols mainly proceeds through an unexpected side reaction, which implies a previous isomerization to an aldehyde. A mechanistic proposal for the formation of the different products is presented.

Cu-catalyzed hydroxycyclopropanol ring-opening cyclization to tetrahydrofurans and tetrahydropyrans: short total syntheses of hyperiones.

Project description:Tetrahydrofurans (THFs) and tetrahydropyrans (THPs) are important core scaffolds frequently found in many molecules of medicinal importance. Herein, we report a novel copper-catalyzed hydroxycyclopropanol ring-opening cyclization methodology to synthesize di- or tri-substituted THFs and THPs. In this reaction, a strained C-C bond was cleaved and a new Csp3-O bond was formed to produce the aforementioned O-heterocycles. The new THF synthesis features a broad substrate scope, scalability, and good functional-group tolerability. It enabled us to complete the shortest enantioselective syntheses of hyperiones A and B (3 and 4 steps, respectively), which is significantly shorter than the previously reported two total syntheses (≥10 steps).

Stereospecific cross-coupling reactions of aryl-substituted tetrahydrofurans, tetrahydropyrans, and lactones.

Project description:The stereospecific ring-opening of O-heterocycles to provide acyclic alcohols and carboxylic acids with controlled formation of a new C-C bond is reported. These reactions provide new methods for synthesis of acyclic polyketide analogs with complex stereochemical arrays. Stereoselective synthesis of the cyclic template is utilized to control relative configuration; subsequent stereospecific nickel-catalyzed ring-opening affords the acyclic product. Aryl-substituted tetrahydrofurans and tetrahydropyrans undergo nickel-catalyzed Kumada-type coupling with a range of Grignard reagents to furnish acyclic alcohols with high diastereoselectivity. Enantioenriched lactones undergo Negishi-type cross-coupling with dimethylzinc to afford enantioenriched carboxylic acids. Application in a two-step enantioselective synthesis of an anti-dyslipidemia agent is demonstrated.

Very short highly enantioselective Grignard synthesis of 2,2-disubstituted tetrahydrofurans and tetrahydropyrans.

Project description:Phenones with elongated chains are shown to be excellent substrates for ligand-promoted asymmetric Grignard synthesis of tertiary alcohols. In turn this enables the simple, short and highly enantioselective (up to 96% ee) preparation of chiral 2,2-disubstituted THFs and THPs. Thus, asymmetric addition of Grignard reagents to γ-chlorobutyrophenones and δ-chlorovalerophenones takes place in the presence of a chiral diaminocyclohexyl-derived tridentate ligand and subsequent base-promoted intramolecular cyclisation occurs with complete retention of asymmetry. As examples of the methodology, we report the shortest syntheses of gossonorol, γ-ethyl-γ-phenylbutyrolactone and δ-methyl-δ-tolylvalerolactone, the joint-shortest and flexible synthesis of boivinianin A and the shortest formal syntheses of boivinianin B and yingzhaosu C.

Dancing Silanols: Stereospecific Rearrangements of Silanol Epoxides into Silanoxy-Tetrahydrofurans and Silanoxy-Tetrahydropyrans.

Project description:We have developed highly stereospecific rearrangements of silanol epoxides into 1'-silanoxy-tetrahydrofurans and 1'-silanoxy-tetrahydropyrans. Upon treatment with Ph3CBF4 and NaHCO3 in CH2Cl2, di-substituted trans-epoxide silanols rearrange into products with an erythro configuration; di-substituted cis-epoxide silanols give products with a threo configuration. We have used these reactions as key steps in the syntheses of (±)-solerone and (±)-muricatacin.

Diastereoselective, three-component cascade synthesis of tetrahydrofurans and tetrahydropyrans employing the tandem Mukaiyama aldol-lactonization process.

Project description:A full account of studies leading to the development of a cascade sequence that generates as many as two C-C bonds, one C-O bond, and three new stereocenters providing substituted tetrahydrofurans (THFs) from simple gamma-ketoaldehydes and thiopyridyl ketene acetals is described. The process involves a tandem Mukaiyama aldol-lactonization (TMAL) and accumulated evidence suggests the intermediacy of a silylated beta-lactone that is intercepted by the pendant ketone. Formation of a cyclic oxocarbenium is followed by reduction with silicon-based nucleophiles leading to a highly diastereoselective synthesis of tetrahydrofurans. This cascade process has now been extended to the synthesis of tetrahydropyrans from simple delta-ketoaldehydes. The stereochemical outcome of the cascade processes described was determined by NOE correlations, coupling constant analysis, and X-ray crystallography of the derived oxygen heterocycles and is in accord with established and recently proposed models for nucleophilic additions to cyclic 5- and 6-membered oxocarbenium ions. The utility of this process was demonstrated by the synthesis of the tetrahydrofuran fragment of colopsinol B.

Synthetic and biosynthetic methods for selective cyclisations of 4,5-epoxy alcohols to tetrahydropyrans.

Project description:Tetrahydropyrans (THPs) are common structural motifs found in natural products and synthetic therapeutic molecules. In Nature these 6-membered oxygen heterocycles are often assembled via intramolecular reactions involving either oxy-Michael additions or ring opening of epoxy-alcohols. Indeed, the polyether natural products have been particularly widely studied due to their fascinating structures and important biological properties; these are commonly formed via endo-selective epoxide-opening cascades. In this review we outline synthetic approaches for endo-selective intramolecular epoxide ring opening (IERO) of 4,5-epoxy-alcohols and their applications in natural product synthesis. In addition, the biosynthesis of THP-containing natural products which utilise IERO reactions are reviewed.

Stereoselective cascade reactions that incorporate a 7-exo acyl radical cyclization.

Project description:[reaction: see text] Radical cascades that feature a 7-exo acyl radical cyclization followed by a 6-exo or 5-exo alkyl radical cyclization proceed with very good yields and diastereoselectivities. Two stereocenters are created by the reaction, and a single isomeric product was obtained from each of the five substrates examined. The relative configurations of the products are consistent with cyclizations occurring via chairlike or pseudochairlike transition states.

Iodine-catalyzed prins cyclization of homoallylic alcohols and aldehydes.

Project description:The iodine-catalyzed Prins cyclization of homoallylic alcohols and aldehydes was investigated under metal-free conditions and without additives. Anhydrous conditions and inert atmosphere are not required. The reaction of 2-(3,4-dihydronaphthalen-1-yl)propan-1-ol and 21 aldehydes (aliphatic and aromatic) in CH₂Cl₂ in the presence of 5 mol % of iodine gave 1,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2H-benzo[f]isochromenes in 54%-86% yield. Under similar conditions, the Prins cyclization of six alcohols containing an endocyclic double bond (primary, secondary, or tertiary) led to dihydropyrans in 52%-91% yield. The acyclic homoallylic alcohols gave 4-iodo-tetrahydropyran in 29%-41% yield in the presence of 50 mol % of iodine. This type of substrate is the main limitation of the methodology. The relative configuration of the products was assigned by NMR and X-ray analysis. The mechanism and the ratio of the products are discussed, based on DFT calculations.

Ring Opening of Aziridines by Pendant Silanols Allows for Stereospecific Preparations of 1'-Amino-tetrahydrofurans.

Project description:We have developed a highly stereospecific cyclization of aziridine silanols into 1'-amino-tetrahydrofurans. Our protocol of stirring a substrate with 10 mol % Sc (OTf)3 and 1 equivalent of NaHCO3 in CH2Cl2 is mild and compatible with a range of activating aziridine N-substituents (including tosylates, mesylates, and carbamates) and functional groups on the alkyl chains (including substituted aryl rings, alkyl bromides, and alkyl ethers). In all cases examined, trans di-substituted aziridine silanols give products with an erythro configuration; conversely, cis di-substituted aziridine silanols give products with a threo configuration. While literature syntheses of 1'-amino-tetrahydrofurans exist, only one example, contemporaneous with our work, uses a similar cyclization for their construction. Control experiments demonstrate that, for this transformation, the silanol is not particularly privileged, and a variety of protecting groups on the alcohol (including other silicon protecting groups, benzyl ethers, and MOM ethers) are compatible with product formation.
