A racemic and scalable enantioselective total synthesis of (+)-waihoensene was accomplished. (+)-Waihoensene belongs to the diterpene natural product family, and it features an angular triquinane substructure motif. Its tetracyclic [6.5.5.5]backbone is al

α-Quaternary ketones are accessed through novel enantioselective alkylations of allyl and propargyl electrophiles by unstabilized prochiral enolate nucleophiles in the presence of palladium complexes with various phosphinooxazoline (PHOX) ligands. Excellent yields and high enantiomeric excesses are obtained from three classes of enolate precursor: enol carbonates, enol silanes, and racemic β-ketoesters. Each of these substrate classes functions with nearly identical efficiency in terms of yield and enantioselectivity. Catalyst discovery and development, the optimization of reaction conditions, the exploration of reaction scope, and applications in target-directed synthesis are reported. Experimental observations suggest that these alkylation reactions occur through an unusual inner-sphere mechanism involving binding of the prochiral enolate nucleophile directly to the palladium center. Sly as a PHOX: The development of an enantioselective decarboxylative palladium-catalyzed allylic alkylation reaction, utilizing phosphinooxazoline ligands, is described. The catalyst is applied to a range of allyl enol carbonate, silyl enol ether, and allyl β-ketoester substrates to provide alkylated ketone products in excellent yield and good ee (see scheme). The utility of these products is demonstrated by their use in several asymmetric syntheses. Mechanistic studies are reported suggesting an unusual inner-sphere mechanism. Copyright

Enantioselective total synthesis of (+)-cassiol
Petrova, Krastina V.,Mohr, Justin T.,Stoltz, Brian M.
supporting information; experimental part, p. 293 - 295 (2009/08/08)
(Chemical Equation Presented) An enantioselective total synthesis of (+)-cassiol is reported. The complex derived from Pd2(pmdba) 3 and enantiopure t-BuPHOX ligand catalyzes enantioconvergent decarboxylative alkylation to generate the quaternary carbon stereocenter at an early stage. The overall synthetic strategy involves a convergent late-stage coupling of two fragments. The synthesis features a longest linear sequence of eight steps.
