Chiral syntheses of two distinct small cycloalkanes, (1R,3R)-(1Z)-norchrysanthemic acid and (+)-grandisol, were performed by characteristic ring-closing methodologies using carbanions at the α-position of nitriles (nitrile α-anions). (i) (1R,3R)-(1Z)-Norchrysanthemic acid, a highly potent ingredient of synthetic pyrethroid containing a cyclopropane structure, was synthesized from readily available (S)-epoxide derived from 3-methyl-but-2-en-1-ol in 7 steps in 23 % overall yield and with > 98 % ee. This sequence involves a trans-selective cyclopropane formation using the nitrile α-anion of (S)-3-mesyloxynitrile as the key step. The present chiral synthesis was performed with effective stereocontrol of both the chirality in the 1,3-positions on the cyclopropane and the Z-geometry of the propenyl group. (ii) (+)-Grandisol, an insect sex pheromone possessing a characteristic cyclobutane structure, was synthesized from commercially available cyclopropyl methyl ketone (route A) or from commercially available 3-cyanopropylzinc bromide and 1-bromo-1-methylpropene (route B) in 10 or 8 steps in 6 % or 8 % overall yield and with 80 % ee. This sequence involves a Shi asymmetric epoxidation of a trisubstituted olefin and a straightforward Stork-type asymmetric cyclobutane formation with clean SN2 stereoinversion using the nitrile α-anion of the chiral epoxynitrile. The present expedient method is the second asymmetric total synthesis starting from achiral compounds.
