Regio- and stereoselective synthesis of constrained enantiomeric β-amino acid derivatives
2008
Abstract Chlorosulfonyl isocyanate addition to (−)- and (+)-apopinene furnished monoterpene-fused β-lactams in highly regio- and stereospecific reactions. β-Lactams 5 and 13 exhibited reactivities similar to those of the cycloalkane-fused analogs and were easily converted to the β-amino acid and its protected derivatives. The base-catalyzed isomerization of the cis -amino ester afforded the corresponding trans -amino acid enantiomers in excellent yields. The complete isomerization is explained by the stability difference, which was estimated by ab initio calculations between the cis- and trans -diastereomers.
Synthesis of Trisaccharides by Hetero-Diels–Alder Welding of Two Monosaccharide Units
2012
A new strategy for the synthesis of di- and trisaccharides based on the de novo synthesis of the linking saccharide unit is presented. In this strategy, functionalized monosaccharide building blocks already incorporating the glycosidic linkages are welded together using a metal-catalyzed hetero-Diels–Alder (HDA) reaction to generate a new monosaccharide unit between them. The highest yields and selectivities in the HDA reaction were obtained by using chiral Schiff base chromium complexes. Disaccharide products were accessible by reaction of Danishefsky's diene with acetyl- and benzyl-protected galactoside aldehydes. For the synthesis of trisaccharide products, acetyl-protected glucose or ga…
Stereoselective Total Synthesis of the Diastereomeric Tricyclic Alkaloids Tetraponerine-7 and Tetraponerine-8 Using O-Pivaloylated d-Arabinopyranosy…
2015
Based on a diastereoselective domino Mannich–Michael reaction cascade of 2- N -[( S )-3-{(benzyloxycarbonyl)[4-( tert -butyldiphenylsiloxy)butyl]amino}octylidene]-2,3,4-tri- O -pivaloyl-α- d -arabinopyranosylamine with the Danishefsky diene, the major component of the neurotoxic venom of the New Guinean ant Tetraponera punctulata , tetraponerine-8, and its diastereomer tetraponerine-7 were synthesized in pure form. While the Mannich reaction of the arabinosyl imine of the required ( S )-configured β-aminoaldehyde gave the 2-substituted piperidinone precursor of tetraponerine-8 with excellent diastereoselectivity, the analogous Mannich reaction of the ( R )-configured β-aminoaldehyde afforde…
Glycoside synthesis via electrophile-induced activation of N-allyl carbamates
1993
Abstract O-Benzyl-, O-acyl-, N-acyl- and isopropylidene-protected glycosyl N-allylcarbamates, obtained from anomerically unprotected monosaccharides and allyl isocyanate, are activated by an electrophile-induced cyclisation and react with hydroxyl compounds to form the corresponding glycosides.
Synthesis of densely functionalized cispentacin derivatives through selective aziridination and aziridine opening reactions: Orthogonally protected d…
2014
A novel substrate-directed synthetic route to a series of highly functionalized, orthogonally protected di- or triaminocyclopentanecarboxylate derivatives with multiple chiral centres from an unsaturated bicyclic β-lactam has been accomplished by applying stereoselective ring C–C double bond aziridination with chloramine-T and phenyltrimethylammonium tribromide, followed by regioselective aziridine opening with different N,O nucleophiles and hydrides. The functionalization strategy was successfully extended for access to enantiomerically pure orthogonally protected triaminocarboxylates.
Lithium enediolates and dienediolates of carboxylic acids in synthesis: Alkylation with secondary halides
1998
Abstract High yields in the alkylation of dianions of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids with secondary halides can be obtained despite elimination reactions occurring. α-Regioselectivity for the alkylation of but-2-enoic acids ( 1–4 ) is seldom obtained. Although double bond stereoselectivity is higher than 99% for γ-alkylated products, stereoselectivity is rather poor for most of the α-alkylated products.

ChemInform Abstract: Stereoselective Synthesis of 7,11-Guaien-8,12-olides from Santonin. Synthesis of Podoandin and (+)-Zedolactone A.
2001
Photochemical rearrangement of hydroxy ester 2, easily obtained from santonin (1), afforded butenolide 4, a good starting material for the synthesis of 7,11-guaien-8,12-olides. Compound 4 has been transformed into compound 10, which has been used for the synthesis of podoandin (5) and (+)-zedolactone A (ent-6). Regioselective elimination of the acetyl group on C10 afforded directly podoandin (5). For the synthesis of ent-6, a hydroxyl group has been regio- and stereoselectively introduced at the 4α-position through the 3α,4α-epoxide 15. The basic hydrolysis of the 10-acetyl group in compound 18 took place with concomitant intramolecular conjugated addition of the alkoxide to the butenolide …
Enzymatic glycosylation of o-glycopeptides
1992
Abstract O-Glycosylation of serine derivatives carried out with N-urethane protected glucosamine yields O-glycopeptides which are regio- and stereoselectively galactosylated with the aid of β-1,4-galactosyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.22).
Non-classical CH⋯O hydrogen-bond determining the regio- and stereoselectivity in the [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction of (Z)-C-phenyl-N-methylnitrone w…
2015
The role of the ester groups in the regio- and stereoselectivities of the zw-type [3 + 2] cycloaddition (32CA) reaction of C-phenyl-N-methylnitrone with dimethyl 2-benzylidenecyclopropane-1,1-dicarboxylate (BCPC) has been studied using DFT methods at the MPWB1K/6-31G(d) level. The possible ortho/meta regioisomeric channels and the endo/exo stereoselective approach modes were explored and characterized. Analysis of the relative energies associated with the different reaction pathways indicates that the presence of the two CO2Me groups in the cyclopropane ring has a remarkable effect on selectivities favouring the ortho/endo path, in good agreement with the experimental data. Inclusion of sol…
