The cyclobutenic ester 1, readily available by thermal [2+2] cycloaddition of the silyl enol ether derived from cyclopentanone with ethyl propynoate, is easily transformed into the diquinanic alcohol 3 via the bicycle [2.1.0] pentane intermediate 2. After
The cyclobutenic way to triquinanes. Synthesis of (±) silphinene
Franck-Neumann, Michel,Miesch, Michel,Gross, Laurence
, p. 2135 - 2136 (2007/10/02)
The easily accessible alcohol 2 is oxidized, after protection, to the allylic alcohol 3. The benzyl ether of this diquinanic alcohol is transformed into the triquinanic precursor 9 of (±) Silphinene, using a similar reaction sequence as described previous
