  • The synthesis of nonactic acid

    Creator:
    Arco, Manuel Jose
    Abstract:
    Alkylation of propylene oxide with 2-lithiofuran gave alcohol I, which was smoothly converted to acetylfuran II. hydrogenation of II over rhodium on charcoal followed by Jones' oxidation afforded ketone III. Further transformation into IV was accomplished via a Wittig reaction followed by saponification with methanolic sodium hydroxide. Hydroboration of the...

  • Tandem intramolecular photocycloaddition-retro-Mannich fragmentation as a route to indole and oxindole

    Creator:
    Li, Yang
    Abstract:
    Irradiation of a tryptamine linked through its side-chain nitrogen to an alkylidene malonate residue results in an intramolecular [2 + 2] cycloaddition to the indole 2,3-double bond. The resultant cyclobutane undergoes spontaneous retro-Mannich fission to produce a spiro[indoline-3,3-pyrrolenine] with relative configuration defined by the orientation of substituents in the transient...

  • Synthesis of furanoeremophilane sesquiterpenoids

    Creator:
    Shanmugham, Meenakshi Sundaram
    Abstract:
    Two approaches to the tricyclic core of the furanoeremophilane sesquiterpenoids are described. The first approach entails a projected Diels-Alder/retro Diels-Alder reaction of an acetylenic oxazole 64. Construction of the pivotal aldehyde 67 commenced from ketone 68. The acetyenic moiety was then introduced via a Felkin-Ahn addition of lithiopropyne to aldehyde...

  • Studies toward the total synthesis of phorboxazole A

    Creator:
    Kuntiyong, Punlop
    Abstract:
    Studies toward the total synthesis of a highly potent cytotoxic marine natural product, phorboxazole A, were conducted and resulted in a route to an advanced intermediate, C4-C32, for this purpose. A key feature of our approach is the stereoselective synthesis of two cis-2,6-disubstituted tetrahydropyrans present in the macrolide portion of...

  • Studies toward the total synthesis of sanglifehrin A

    Creator:
    Suttisintong, Khomson
    Abstract:
    Studies toward synthesis of subunits of sanglifehrin A, an immunosuppressant featuring a highly substituted [5,5]-spirolactam moiety as well as a 22-membered macrocycle are described. The macrolactone contains a peptidic backbone characterized by an unusual [beta]-substituted (S)-piperazic acid and (S)-m-hydroxyphenylalanine units. These studies resulted in the synthesis of advanced intermediate 358...

  • Total synthesis of indole alkaloids: pt. 1. Asymmetric synthesis of (-)-ibogamine. pt. 2. An approach toward the synthesis of koumine

    Creator:
    Choi, Younggi
    Abstract:
    PART I. The preparation of (-)-ibogamine (1) in fourteen steps from benzoquinone and in 10% overall yield is a powerful illustration of the value of the asymmetric Diels-Alder reaction as a starting point in a multistep synthesis. All four cycloadducts, 70, 77, 84 and 96, obtained with the (S)-BINOL-TiCl₂ complex...

  • Studies towards the total synthesis of (-)-gymnodimine

    Creator:
    Wang, Guoqiang
    Abstract:
    Studies towards the total synthesis of (-)-gymnodimine (1), a marine neurotoxin with a unique molecular architecture and pronounced biological activity, are described. These studies resulted in a convergent approach to the advanced intermediate 315, containing the C3-C32 section of 1. Two synthetic routes were developed to construct the tetrahydrofuran subunit...

    Abstract:
    Studies toward the total synthesis of (+)-providencin (1), a highly oxygenated cembranoid dipterpene with a unique bicyclo[12.2.0]hexadecane skeleton and pronounced biological activity, are described. These studies resulted in the synthesis of advanced intermediates 320 and 332 which contain all of the carbon atoms of 1. In a first generation approach...

    Creator:
    Shaw, Subrata
    Abstract:
    This thesis describes the development of a new enantioselective synthetic method employing chiral cis-2,5-diaminobicyclo[2.2.2]octane-based organometallic catalysts. The significance of this new method to organic synthesis is illustrated with preparation of enantioenriched products that are transformed to important pharmaceutical agents. Chapter 1 provides a brief historical overview of asymmetric catalysis, especially...
