  • A Practical Chemo-enzymatic Approach to Highly Enantio-Enriched 10-Ethyl-7,8-dihydro-γ-ionone Isomers: A Method for the Synthesis of 4,5-Didehydro-α-Ionone
    2012
    Co-Authors: Assem Barakat, Abdullah M. Al-majid, Yahia Nasser Mabkhot, Zeid Abdullah Al-othman
    Abstract:

    Abstract: An efficient and convenient strategy for the enantioselective synthesis of enantiomerically enriched 10-ethyl-7,8-dihydro-γ-ionone isomers (R)-(+)-7, and (S)-(−)-7 are described utilizing a lipase mediated resolution protocol, and reductive elimination of the Secondary Allylic Alcohol as the key step. The enantioselective and diastereoselective lipase kinetic acetylation of 4-hydroxy-γ-ionone derivatives 6a afforded the 4-acetyl-γ-ionone derivatives (−)-8, and the 4-hydrox-γ-ionone derivatives (+)-6a, which are suitable precursors of the desired products. Stereospecific palladium-mediated elimination of Allylic acetate provides the target compounds with an excellent enantiomeric excess and yield. Additionally, the novel 4,5-didehydro-α-ionone 13 is obtained from readily prepared (2,6,6-trimethylcyclohexa-2,4-dien-1-yl) methanol 9. The structures of all newly synthesized compounds have been elucidated by 1 H, 13 C NMR, GC-MS, and IR spectrometry. These compounds represent a new class of odorants that may be of pivotal relevance in industrial perfumery

  • Conversion of cyanthiwigin U to related cyanthiwigins: total syntheses of cyanthiwigin W and cyanthiwigin Z
    Tetrahedron Letters, 2008
    Co-Authors: Matthew W. B. Pfeiffer, Andrew J. Phillips
    Abstract:

    In 1992, two research groups independently described the isolation and structure elucidation of the first examples of the cyanthiwigins from two species of sea sponge.1,2 Their structural features clearly placed them in the cyathane class of diterpenoids although they could be differentiated from the majority by the syn-orientation of the angular methyl groups (Figure 1, cyanthiwigin U, 1 c.f. allocyathin B3).3 Figure 1 Representative examples of cyathane diterpenes. Members of the cyanthiwigin family, which has now grown to ~30 congeners4,5,6 have been reported to have noteworthy biological activities such as action against hepatitis B virus, human immunodeficiency virus, and Mycobacterium tuberculosis as well as anti-cancer properties. In light of their biological activities and low natural abundance, the cyanthiwigins are important targets for synthesis and to date total syntheses have been reported for (−)-cyanthiwigin U, 17 (+)-cyanthiwigin AC,8 and cyanthiwigin F, 2.9 In this Letter we report the total syntheses of cyanthiwigins W and Z. Our strategy for the synthesis of cyanthiwigin W and cyanthiwigin Z is based the same two-directional tandem ROM-RCM that we have previously described for the synthesis of cyanthiwigin U (5→6, Figure 2, details of the cyanthiwigin U synthesis have been reported previously7). With ready access to cyanthiwigin U, we expected that a diastereoselective 1,2-reduction of the cyclopentenone would lead to cyanthiwigin W, and the combination of a diastereoselective reduction and oxidative transposition of the tertiary Allylic Alcohol would provide cyanthiwigin Z. Figure 2 Overview of the plans for the synthesis of cyanthiwigin W and cyanthiwigin Z. To our delight, subjecting cyanthiwigin U to standard Luche reduction10 conditions led to hydride delivery from the less hindered (albeit slightly concave) β-face in high yield to furnish cyanthiwigin W and 1-epi-cyanthiwigin W (d.r. = 9:1, Scheme 1). The epimers were readily separated on silica gel, and the cyanthiwigin W obtained by this route provided data that was in accord with that reported by Hamann and co-workers.4,11 Scheme 1 Reagents and conditions: 1. NaBH4, CeCl3.7H2O, MeOH, 95%, d.r. = 9:1. The conversion of cyanthiwigin W to cyanthiwigin Z commenced with selective acetylation of the Secondary Allylic Alcohol with Ac2O/DMAP (8→9, Scheme 2). Subsequent Dauben oxidative transposition12 of the tertiary Allylic Alcohol with PCC led to enone 10, and this was followed by removal of the acetate with K2CO3 in MeOH to yield cyanthiwigin Z13 in 20% overall yield from cyanthiwigin W. Scheme 2 Reagents and conditions: 1.Ac2O, DMAP, CH2Cl2, 0 °C; 2. PCC, CH2Cl2, rt, 14h. 3. K2CO3, MeOH, rt, 3h, 20% (over 3 steps). In conclusion, we have described the concise conversion of cyanthiwigin U to cyanthiwigins W and Z. Given the ready access to the core structures of the cyanthiwigins by either our route, or the Stoltz group’s strategy,9 these transformations provide an early indication of the encouraging prospects for the ready preparation of a variety of natural and unnatural cyanthiwigins in advance of biological studies.
