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...

Abstract:: A total synthesis of the fungal hormones, trisporic acids A and B, is described, starting from a -methyltetronic acid 34. A Robinson annelation of 34 with ethyl vinyl ketone affords the lactone 33. Treatment of 33 with N-bromosuccinimide gave 97, which was hydrolyzed to the lactol 103. The reaction of...

Abstract:: Various hypervalent iodine compounds were evaluated as reagents for intramolecular phenolic oxidative coupling. It was found that phenyliodine(III) bis(trifluoroacetate) was effective for the coupling of the monophenolic substrate 13a to 14a under neutral conditions. Vanadium oxytrifluoride and hypervalent iodine compounds were compared as oxidants for the conversion of 32 to...

Abstract:: Several approaches to the synthesis of penicillin from 2-iminothioazolidine 50, from 2-thiothiazolidine 66 and by photocyclization of 77 and 78 were investigated. 2-Iminothiazolidine 50 was prepared from dibromoester 45 by the action of benzylamine followed by treatment of aziridine 46 with potassium or ammonium thiocyanate. Attempted introduction of a two-carbon...

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:: 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...
