Synthesis of (±)-(E)-2,6-dimethyl-6-hydroxyocta-2,7-dienoic acid and the corresponding amide (“acacialactam”)
1994
Abstract The total synthesis of the title compounds in racemic form is described. Linalool was used as the starting material and transformed into the target molecules in 6 steps. The synthetic amide displays spectral properties identical to those reported for the natural compound acacialactam, indicating that the structure proposed for the latter compound is not correct.
A Bioinspired Approach to Tri-nor-guaianes. Synthesis of (−)-Clavukerin A
2006
A bioinspired approach to tri-nor-guaianes by degradation of the C-7 side chain of related guaia-11-enes is described. In this approach (-)-clavukerin A (1) is obtained by selective ozonolysis-Criegge rearrangement of (+)-1alphaH,7alphaH,10alphaH-guaia-4,11-dien-3-one (4) to afford 7beta-hydroxy and 7beta-acetoxy tri-nor-guaiane derivatives 6 and 7, respectively, which after elimination and deoxygenation give the title compound. The starting guaiadienone is readily obtained from commercially available santonin or (+)-dihydrocarvone.
New tracer compounds for secondary organic aerosol formation from β-caryophyllene oxidation
2013
Abstract Five products from β-caryophyllene oxidation (β-caryophyllonic acid (I), 3,3-dimethyl-2-(3-oxobutyl)cyclobutanecarboxylic acid (βCA198) (II), β-nocaryophyllonic acid (III), β-caryophyllinic acid (IV), and 2-(2-carboxyethyl)-3,3-dimethylcyclobutanecarboxylic acid (βCA200) (V)) were synthesized and their structures confirmed by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Reaction chamber experiments with β-caryophyllene at two different ozone mixing ratios were performed and the carboxylic acid oxidation products in the particle phase were characterized by APCI–MS and HPLC–ESI–MS. All five synthesized acids were found as β-caryophyllene oxidation products in the reaction chamber aerosol…
Synthesis of plagiochiline N from santonin.
2001
This article reports the transformation of O-acetylisophotosantonin, obtained by photochemical rearrangement of santonin, into plagiochiline N, an ent-2,3-secoaromadendrane isolated from Plagiochila ovalifolia. The synthesis was carried out in a sequence involving as the key steps (a) the substitution of the lactone moiety by a gem-dimethylcyclopropane ring through a synthetic intermediate having a C(6)-C(7) double bond and (b) the ozonolysis of the C(2)-C(3) bond followed by cyclization to the dihydropyran ring characteristic of plagiochiline N. Spectroscopic data of the synthetic product fully coincided with the reported data for the natural product.
Dienediolates of unsaturated carboxylic acids in synthesis. Aldehydes and ketones from alkyl halides, by ozonolysis of β,γ-unsaturated α-alkyl carbox…
1997
Abstract A convenient two-step procedure for a two carbon homologative conversion of alkyl halides into aldehydes and methyl ketones by α-alkylation of unsaturated carboxylic acids, followed by ozonolysis is developed and applied to the synthesis of ω-chloro aldehydes. Triethylamine is superior to dimethyl sulfide or triphenylphosphine for cleavage of the ozonides, except when aldol condensation side reactions require use of protic solvents and iodide salts. Cleavage of the ozonides by triethylamine is shown to occur mainly through a reductive process.
