Stereoselective hydrogenation and ozonolysis of iridoids. Conversion into carbocyclic nucleoside analogues

Stereoselective hydrogenation of the iridoids geniposide (9) and aucubin (19) was achieved by using the 1-methyl-1- methoxyethyl ether as a protecting group for the allylic alcohol, as it enhanced the stereoselectivity and prevented undesired hydrogenolysis. Ozonolysis of the hydrogenation product from 9, adoxoside (11), with reductive workup, afforded either a chiral lactone (25) or a chiral polyol (26), depending on the reduction conditions. Polyol 26 was subjected to protecting-group manipulation and subsequent oxidation and reductions to yield cyclopentane building blocks (29-34), which, by Mitsunobu couplings with purines, afforded carbocyclic nucleoside analogues (7, 8, and 35).

Chemistry and Stereochemistry of Iridoids, XIV. - Aucubin and Scandoside from Catalpol
Weinges, Klaus,Ziegler, Hans Juergen
, p. 715 - 717 (2007/10/02)
Aucubin (9), scandoside (10), and its methyl ester were obtained, in good yields, from catalpol (1).The absolute configurations of 9-11 were established by correlation to catalpol, whose X-ray structure has previously been determined.
