A direct asymmetric synthesis of a trans-4,5-difunctionalised cyclopentenone derivative has been achieved in 55% yield and 80% ee by organocatalysed rearrangement of a pyranone in tert-butanol by DABCO with simultaneous enzymatic resolution.

Dioxygenated cyclopentenones are versatile building blocks for the synthesis of several natural products. Herein we report a direct asymmetric synthesis of trans-4,5-dioxygenated cyclopentenone derivatives through base-catalyzed rearrangement of pyranones followed by dynamic kinetic resolution. Milder conditions than previously reported for this rearrangement have been found regarding amine base catalysis, solvent and temperature effects. All data supports a mechanism involving cyclization of an intermediate formed by electrocyclic ring opening of a pyranone-derived enol. We have developed conditions for asymmetric synthesis of trans-4-tert-butoxy-5-hydroxycyclopent-2- enone, in 81% yield and 95% ee, and analogous dioxygenated cyclopentenones, via a lipase induced dynamic kinetic resolution.
