Magnesium dicarboxylates promote the prenylation of phenolics that is extended to the total synthesis of icaritin

The prenylation of phenolic substrates promoted by magnesium dicarboxylates was developed. An investigation of the scope demonstrated that substrates with electron-donating group(s) gave better yields than those with electron-withdrawing group(s). Althoug

REGIOSELECTIVE PRENYLATION OF PHENOLS BY PALLADIUM CATALYST: SYNTHESES OF PRENYLPHENOLS AND CHROMANS

The palladium-catalyzed coupling reaction of iodophenols (1) with 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol gave alkynylphenols (2).Catalytic hydrogenation of 2 over Raney nickel and the subsequent dehydration of the resultant alkylphenols (3) gave regioselectively the desired prenylphenols (4).Dehydration of alkylphenols (3f-h) gave chromans (7).

REACTION OF 2H-1-BENZOPYRANS WITH ORGANOMETALLIC REAGENTS. SYNTHESIS OF 4-(α,γ-DIALKYL-β-4-METHOXYPHENYLALLYL)RESORCINS

The stereoselective synthesis of E- and Z-4-(α,γ-dialkyl-β-4-methoxyphenylallyl)resorcins was accomplished by reaction of 2-alkyl-7-hydroxy-4'-methoxyisoflavenes with organoaluminum and organomagnesium reagents.This way leads to better yields than the reduction of 2,4-dialkyl-7-hydroxy-4'-methoxyisoflavenes.The influence of substituents at different positions on the reduction was studied on model 2H-1-benzopyrans.

Base Catalysed Aromatic claisen Rearrengement of 3-Hydroxyphenyl Allyl Ethers

The 3-hydroxyphenyl allyl ethers (1a-d) have been shown to undergo rearrangement in refluxing aqueous methanolic potassium hydroxide in the presence of oxygen, whereas no reaction occurs in the absence of base and oxygen, and the products formed are the result of accelerated sigmatropic processes in which moderate regioselection is operating; evidence is presented for the process being radical rather than anion mediated.

SILICON-MEDIATED C-ISOPRENYLATION OF PHENOLS

C-isoprenylation of phenols has been effected using a combination of isoprene and in situ generated iodotrimethylsilane or hydrogen iodide.

CYCLODEHYDROGENATION OF ORTHO-(3,3-DIMETHYLALLYL)PHENOLS WITH TRITYL TETRAFLUOROBORATE

Trityl tetrafluoroborate has been shown to effect the cyclodehydrogenation of o-(3,3-dimethylallyl)phenols in an efficient manner.
