A simple method for the cleavage of methoxymethyl (MOM)-ether and ester derivatives using bismuth trichloride (BiCl3) is described. The alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, benzyl and anthracene MOM ether derivatives, as well as MOM esters of both aliphatic and aromatic carboxylic acids, were deprotected in good yields. To better understand the molecular roles of BiCl3and water for MOM cleavage, two possible binding pathways were investigated using the density functional theory (DFT) method. The theoretical results indicate the differential initial binding site preferences of phenolic and alcoholic MOM substrates to the Bi atom and suggest that water plays a key role in facilitating the cleavage of the MOM group.
Diversity-Oriented Synthesis of Bioactive Azaspirocycles
Lepovitz, Lance T.,Martin, Stephen F.
, (2019/11/03)
A collection of novel azaspirocyclic β-arylethylamines was prepared in good yield and excellent diastereoselectivity by an expedient strategy that features condensation of a cyclic ketone with an amino allylsilane and a tandem aza-Sakurai cyclization to generate several different spirocyclic N-heterocycles. Subsequent elaboration of the spirocyclic scaffold was achieved via Pictet-Spengler cyclizations, Suzuki cross-coupling reactions, N-functionalizations, and olefin refunctionalization reactions to create a diverse library of compounds, several of which have nanomolar affinity for the sigma 1 receptor and transmembrane protein 97 (TMEM97).

Herein, a simplified approach to the synthesis of medium-ring ethers through the electrophilic activation of secondary alcohols with (poly)cationic λ3-iodanes (N-HVIs) is reported. Excellent levels of selectivity are achieved for C–O bond migration over established α-elimination pathways, enabled by the unique reactivity of a novel 2-OMe-pyridine-ligated N-HVI. The resulting hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) acetals are readily derivatized with a range of nucleophiles, providing a versatile functional handle for subsequent manipulations. The utility of this methodology for late-stage natural product derivatization was also demonstrated, providing a new tool for diversity-oriented synthesis and complexity-to-diversity (CTD) efforts. Preliminary mechanistic investigations reveal a strong effect of alcohol conformation on the reactive pathway, thus providing a predictive power in the application of this approach to complex molecule synthesis.
