The total synthesis of prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) was accomplished via nickel-promoted cyclization of 1,3-diene and aldehyde in a chain in the presence of 1,3-cyclohexadiene (1,3-CHD). The cyclization of 16 prepared in an optically active form from chiral epoxy alcohol 10 stereoselectively gave the key intermediate 18, which has both an α-chain and the four contiguous chiral carbon centers in PGF2α, in a one-pot reaction. Intermediate 18 was successfully transformed into PGF2α.

Total synthesis of prostaglandin F(2α) utilizing a nickel(0)-catalyzed cyclization of 1,3-diene and tethered aldehyde was achieved. The cyclization proceeded via a transmetalation of nickelacycle with dilsobutylaluminum acetylacetonate ((i)Bu2-ALAC). Thus, the reaction of 19, having a side chain corresponding to the α-chain in PGF(2α) with Ni(cod)2 (10 mol %), PPh3 (20 mol %), and 1,3-cyclohexadiene (25 mol %) in the presence of (i)Bu2-ALAC (1.5 eq) proceeded stereoselectively to give the cyclized product 26 in 54% yield. During the cyclization of 19, the Z-olefin at C-5 in the side chain completely retained its geometry, and the four contiguous chiral carbon centers in PGF(2α) were stereoselectively constructed. Transformation of the key intermediate 19 into PGF(2α) was successfully achieved.
