The selective O-benzylation of 2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridines plays a critical role in organic synthesis of natural products and biological active molecules. Herein we report a novel ternary system of ZnO, ZnCl2 and N,N-diisopropylethylamine (DIEA), that is highly effective for selective O-benzylation of 2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridines using abundant substituted benzyl halides and related substituted 2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridines compounds. This process allows access to a variety of O-benzyl products under mild reaction conditions, which are important synthetic intermediates in the protection of functional groups, and represents a new method toward the development for the O-benzylation of 2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridines.

A synthetic approach to fusicoccin A utilizing intramolecular photocycloaddition of tethered 2-pyridones has been completed. This study has led to the first solvent-dependent 2-pyridone photocycloaddition yielding either cis or trans products. Epoxidation of the cis photoproduct is selective for the disubstituted alkene, stabilizes the product, and is properly located for installation of the trans-1,2-diol. Activation of the secondary amide by reaction with an isocyanate led to the reduction of the neopentyl amide carbonyl to a methyl group.
