A new strategy towards the synthesis of phenanthridone alkaloids has been reported through the synthesis of (+)-2,7-dideoxypancratistatin from D-(-)-quinic acid employing PET initiated carbocyclization of an electron rich aromatics by silylenol ether as a

A strategy based on diastereoselective epoxidation of a cyclohexene followed by chiral lithium amide-mediated epoxide rearrangement has been used to synthesise an allylic alcohol building block of >95% ee. The key step is the enantioselective rearrangement of a bis-protected meso-4,5-dihydroxycyclohexene oxide. A range of protecting groups and chiral base structures were surveyed in order to find the optimum protocol for high enantioselectivity. Using a tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy protecting group and a norephedrine-derived chiral base, a 93% yield of an allylic alcohol of >95% ee was achieved. To demonstrate the synthetic utility, this allylic alcohol was subsequently transformed into 4-deoxyconduritols and (+)-conduritol F.

A chiral base route from a meso cyclohexene oxide to an allylic alcohol provides key intermediates for the synthesis of cyclic polyols. A Mitsunobu approach and an Overman rearrangement approach transform allylic alcohols into some aminodeoxyconduritols (95% ee). Elaboration of a chiral enone (89% ee) via (i) α-hydroxylation and (ii) stereoselective reduction completes a high yielding synthesis of the tetraacetate of conduritol F.
Chiral lithium amide base-mediated rearrangement of bis-protected meso-4,5-dihydroxy cyclohexene oxides: Enantioselective synthesis of (4R,5S) and (4S,5R)-4,5-bis(tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy)cyclohex-2-enone

The asymmetric synthesis of (4R,5S)- and (4S,5R)-4,5-bis(tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy)cyclohex-2-enone are described. Such bis-protected enones are useful intermediates in synthesis, and compounds with (4S,5R)-stereochemistry have previously been prepared from D-(-)-quinic acid. This paper reports the first synthesis of enones with (4R,5S)-stereochemistry. The route to the bis-protected enones involves chiral base-mediated rearrangement of meso-cyclohexene oxides to allylic alcohols followed by PDC oxidation. Two new chiral base reactions are described: rearrangement of a trans-epoxide generates an allylic alcohol of 76% ee (93% yield) whilst that of a cis-epoxide produces an allylic alcohol of 92% ee (38% yield); suggestions for the observed differences in yield and enantioselectivities are proposed.
Chiral base-mediated rearrangement of meso-cyclohexene oxides to allylic alcohols

Highly enantiomerically enriched allylic alcohols have been generated by rearranging single diastereomers of meso-cyclohexene oxides using a homochiral lithium amide base. PDC oxidation of each allylic alcohol product affords a different enantiomer of a synthetically useful cyclohexenone.
