Annulative Ring Expansions. Direct Conversion of ω-Alkynyl Acetals to Polycyclic Unsaturated Ketones
Sisko, Joseph,Balog, Aaron,Curran, Dennis P.
, p. 4341 - 4342 (1992)
Geminal acylation of ω-acetylenic acetals and bis(silyloxy)cycloalkenes under Lewis acid conditions preceded cationic cyclization of the alkyne onto the ketone to produce polycyclic unsaturated ketones.
A synthetic approach to (±)-aristomakine
Perni, Robert B.,Gribble, Gordon W.
, p. 75 - 84 (2018/07/03)
We describe the synthesis of trans-11b-methyl-2,3,4,6,11,11b-hexahydro-1H-benzo[a]carbazol-3-ol (2) in five steps from the Wieland-Miescher ketone 3 in 17% overall yield. The N-benzyl analogue (trans-11-Benzyl-11b-methyl-2,3,4,6,11,11b-hexahydro-1H-benzo[a]carbazol-3-ol) 15 was likewise prepared. Attempts thus far to fashion (±)-aristomakine (1) from 2, 15, or derivatives have not been successful.

A series of Wieland-Miescher ketone analogues bearing highly functionalized substituents are efficiently constructed in high enantioselectivities and good yields using catalytic amounts of prolinamide and PPTS. We have successfully utilized this reaction as a key step to synthesize the tricyclic core of cylindricine type alkaloids. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.
