Exaltone (=Cyclopentadecanone) from Isomuscone (=Cyclohexadecanone), a one-C-atom ring-contraction methodology via a stereospecific favorskii rearrangement: Regioselective application to (-)-(R)-muscone

Treatment of cyclohexadecanone (1g; with I2 (2.2 mol-euqiv.) and KOH in MeOH) furnished the unsaturated (Z)-ester 2g in 83% yield, via a stereospecific Favorskii rearrangement (Scheme 1). Further treatment with 3-chloroperbenzoic acid (m-CPBA) afforded the unreported epoxy ester 3g (88% yield), which was cleaved in 33% yield to Exaltone (=cyclopentadecanone; 1f) with NaOH in MeOH/H2O and then HCl at 65°. This methodology was similarly extended to higher (C17) and lower (C15 to C11) cyclic ketone analogues, as well as regioselectively to (-)-(R)-muscone (5c) and homomuscone (5f) (Scheme 2). Olfactive properties of the corresponding macrocyclic 1-oxaspiro[2,n]alkanes and -alkenes 4 and 8, resulting from a Coreyi-Chaykovsky oxiranylation, are also presented. Copyright

Indirect electrochemical oxidation of cyclic ketones: Strong influence of ring size on the result of the reaction

The result of the indirect electrochemical oxidation of cyclic ketones in methanol in the undivided cell in the presence of sodium iodide depends on the ring size. Cyclopentanone affords 2,2-dimethoxycyclopentanone. While cyclohexanone gives rise 2,2-dimethoxycyclo-hexanol, and cyclic ketones with higher ring size undergo new type of the electrochemically induced Favorskii rearrangement with the formation of methyl cycloalkencarboxylates containing in the ring on the one carbon atom less than starting ketone. So the simple electrocatalytic system can distinguish the ring size of cyclic ketones.
