The microwave-assisted imidazole-catalyzed transformation of propargyl vinyl ethers (PVEs) into multisubstituted salicylaldehydes is described. The reaction is instrumentally simple, scalable, and tolerates a diverse degree of substitution at the propargylic position of the starting PVE. The generated salicylaldehyde motifs incorporate a broad range of topologies, spanning from simple aromatic monocycles to complex fused polycyclic systems. The reaction is highly regioselective and takes place under symmetry-breaking conditions. The preparative power of this reaction was demonstrated in the first total synthesis of morintrifolin B, a benzophenone metabolite isolated from the small tree Morinda citrifolia L. A DFT study of the reaction was performed with full agreement between calculated values and experimental results. The theoretically calculated values support a domino mechanism comprising a propargyl Claisen rearrangement, a [1,3]-H shift, a [1,7]-H shift (enolization), a 6π electrocyclization, and an aromatization reaction.

Polysubstituted butenolides were obtained in good to high yields from α-bromoesters derived from propargyl alcohols by a one-pot reaction involving the radical cyclization of α-bromo aluminium acetals, followed by the oxidation of the resulting cyclic aluminium acetals in an Oppenauer-type process and migration of the exocyclic C-C bond into the α,β-position. Comparison with the direct cyclization of α-bromoesters at high temperature and under high dilution conditions is described. Deuterium-labelling experiments allowed us to uncover "invisible" 1,5-hydrogen atom transfers (1,5-HATs) that occur during these cyclization processes, together with the consequences of the latter in the epimerization of stereogenic centres. Compared to the classical approach, the cyclization of aluminium acetals proved to be highly chemoselective and its efficiency was illustrated by the short total syntheses of optically enriched γ-butenolides isolated from Plagiomnium undulatum and from Kyrtuhrix maculans.

An efficient preparation of γ-lactols and methylene-γ-lactols is described. Highly acid-sensitive lactols are prepared in a concise manner by using a radical cyclization of aluminum acetals. The precursors for the radical reactions are readily prepared fr

(Chemical Equation Presented) A series of optically active BINOL, H 4BINOL, and H8BINOL derivatives were prepared. These compounds in combination with ZnEt2 and Ti(OiPr) 4 were used to catalyze the asymmetric reaction of alkynes with aldehydes to generate chiral propargylic alcohols at room temperature. Through this comparative study, a 3,3′-bisanisyl-substituted H8BINOL (S)-7 was found to be a generally enantioselective catalyst for the reaction of structurally diverse terminal alkynes with a variety of aldehydes. It catalyzed the reactions of alkyl propiolates with 88-99% ee; the reactions of phenylacetylene with 81-87% ee; the reactions of 4-phenyl-1-butyne, an alkyl alkyne, with 77-89% ee; and the reactions of trimethylsilylacetylene with 92-97% ee. The optically active propargylic alcohols generated from this catalytic asymmetric alkyne addition were observed to undergo efficient ring-closing-metathesis (RCM) reaction in the presence of the Grubbs II catalyst to produce chiral cycloalkenes. It was further found that some of the chiral propargylic alcohols underwent a highly chemoselective tandem RCM hydrogenation reaction with retention of the enantiomeric purity. 2009 American Chemical Society.

Angularly-fused triquinanes (see Table 1) are accessible by sequential use of the Pauson-Khand reaction and radical cyclization.The Pauson-Khand step works in the presence of homolyzable bonds, such as C-Br and C-SePh.The method seems best suited to the p
