Catalytic Z-isomerization of retinoids to their thermodynamically less stable Z-isomer remains a challenge. In this report, we present a photochemical approach for the catalytic Z-isomerization of retinoids using monochromatic wavelength UV irradiation treatment. We have developed a straightforward approach for the synthesis of Z-retinoids in high yield, overcoming common obstacles normally associated with their synthesis. Calculations based on density functional theory (DFT) have allowed us to correlate the experimentally observed Z-isomer distribution of retinoids with the energies of chemically important intermediates, which include ground- and excited-state potential energy surfaces. We also demonstrate the application of the current method by synthesizing gram-scale quantities of 9-cis-retinyl acetate 9Z-a. Operational simplicity and gram-scale ability make this chemistry a very practical solution to the problem of Z-isomer retinoid synthesis.

This paper presents a full account of the use of Hiyama cross-coupling reactions in a highly convergent approach to retinoids in which the key step is construction of the central C10-C11 bond. Representatives of two families of oxygen-activated dienyl silanes (ethoxysilanes and silanols) and of all reported families of "safety-catch" silanols (siletanes, silyl hydrides, allyl-, benzyl-, aryl-, 2-pyridyl- and 2-thienylsilanes) were regio- and stereoselectively prepared and stereospecifically coupled to an appropriate electrophile by treatment with a palladium catalyst and a nucleophilic activator. Both all-trans and 11-cis-retinoids, and their chain-demethylated analogues, were obtained in good yields regardless of the geometry (E/Z) and of the steric congestion in each fragment. This comprehensive study conclusively establishes the Hiyama cross-coupling reaction, with its mild reaction conditions and stable, easily prepared, ecologically advantageous silicon-based coupling partners, as the most effective route to retinoids reported to date.
