Cobalt mediated cyclisations of a radical onto a substituted allylamine can be used to generate highly functionalised pyrrolidines. The facility of the ring closure depends on the nature of substituents on the alkene moeity. Dehydrocobaltation of the init

Total synthesis of (±)-gracilioether F was achieved via a pivotal reductive cleavage of 1,2-dioxane from allenic ester in 11 steps. The key 1,2-dioxane species, derived from singlet oxygen and a diene, could be used as a common precursor for a stereocontr

The design and a gram-scale synthesis of a bench-stable cyclohexa-1,4-diene-based surrogate of gaseous hydrogen iodide are described. By initiation with a moderately strong Br?nsted acid, hydrogen iodide is transferred from the surrogate onto C-C multiple bonds such as alkynes and allenes without the involvement of free hydrogen iodide. The surrogate fragments into toluene and ethylene, easy-to-remove volatile waste. This hydroiodination reaction avoids precarious handling of hydrogen iodide or hydroiodic acid. By this, a broad range of previously unknown or difficult-to-prepare vinyl iodides can be accessed in stereocontrolled fashion.
Α-calbonyl phosphorane manufacturing method

, (2016/12/22)
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a new method for producing α-carbonyl phosphorane, which is industrially advantageous, and which brings about a high yield and high purity with a simple operation. SOLUTION: In the reaction to synthesize an α-carbonyl phosphorane represented by general formula (I) by making a base act on an aqueous solution of an α-carbonyl phosphonium salt represented by general formula (II), the crystal of the α-carbonyl phosphorane is easily deposited by conducting the reaction with previous addition of a water-insoluble organic solvent (in formulas, Ar represents an optionally substituted aryl group, R1represents a hydrogen atom, an optionally substituted alkyl group or an optionally substituted aryl group, R2represents an optionally substituted alkyl group or an optionally substituted aryl group, and X-represents a counter anion).

Lanosterol biosynthesis: The critical role of the methyl-29 group of 2,3-oxidosqualene for the correct folding of this substrate and for the construction of the five-membered D ring

Lanosterol synthase catalyzes the polycyclization reaction of (3S)-2,3-oxidosqualene (1) into tetracyclic lanosterol 2 by folding 1 in a chair-boat-chair-chair conformation. 27-Nor- and 29-noroxidosqaulenes (7 and 8, respectively) were incubated with this enzyme to investigate the role of the methyl groups on 1 for the polycyclization cascade. Compound 7 afforded two enzymatic products, namely, 30-norlanosterol (12) and 26-normalabaricatriene (13; 12/13 9:1), which were produced through the normal chair-boat-chair-chair conformation and an atypical chair-chair-boat conformation, respectively. Compound 8 gave two products 14 and 15 (14/15 4:5), which were generated by the normal and the unusual polycyclization pathways through a chair-chair-boat-chair conformation, respectively. It is remarkable that the twist-boat structure for the B-ring formation was changed to an energetically favored chair structure for the generation of 15. Surprisingly, 14 and 15 consisted of a novel 6,6,6,6-fused tetracyclic ring system, thus differing from the 6,6,6,5-fused lanosterol skeleton. Together with previous results, we conclude that the methyl-29 group is critical to the correct folding of 1, with lesser contributions from the other branched methyl groups, such as methyl-26, -27, and -28. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the methyl-29 group has a crucial role in the formation of the five-membered D ring of the lanosterol scaffold. Ringing in the changes: The incubation of 1 with porcine-liver cyclase afforded new nortriterpenes 2 and 3 with 6,6,6,6-fused tetracyclic skeletons, which were produced by chair-boat-chair-chair and chair-chair-boat-chair conformations, respectively (see scheme), thus indicating that the 29-methyl group is critical to the correct folding of oxidosqualene and to the formation of the five-membered D ring for lanosterol biosynthesis.
