Z -isomerization of retinoids through combination of monochromatic photoisomerization and metal catalysis

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.

Electro-organic Reactions. Part 20. Electrogenerated Bases, Ylide Formation, and Wittig Alkene Synthesis

Dicyano(fluoren-9-ylidene)methane (1a), dicyano(2,7-dibromofluoren-9-ylidene)methane (1b), and ethyl 2-cyano-2-fluoren-9-ylideneacetate (1c) may be cathodically reduced in N,N-dimethylforamide to give dianions which efficiently convert phosphonium salts into ylides.The potentials required are sufficiently modest to allow the electrogeneration of the bases in the presence of several phosphonium salts and of several aldehydes to give a convenient method of carrying out the Wittig alkene synthesis.This method has been explored for the synthesis of stilbene, 1,4-diphenylbutadiene, and vitamin A acetate.The basicity of the dianions varies according to the choice of electrolyte cation (Bu4N+ or Li+).The cations also have a marked effect on the stereochemical course of the reaction and, in particular, mixtures of alkenes are obtained in which the cis-isomer predominates in the presence of lithium ion; in the vitamin A acetate synthesis, the 11-cis-isomer constitutes 76percent of the product.The results are consistent with recent hypotheses concerning the mecahnism of the Wittig reaction.
