Y-zeolite-catalyzed cyclizations of terpenols
Yu, Wei,Bian, Fengling,Gao, Yuan,Yang, Li,Liu, Zhong-Li
, p. 59 - 62 (2006)
Depending on the metal doped and the activation temperature, Y-zeolites can catalyze a diversity of reactions of geraniol (1), linalool (2) and nerol (3). Compound 1 can be transformed to α- and/or γ-cyclogeraniol (4 and 5) highly efficiently.
Scalable synthesis of the aroma compounds d6-β-ionone and d6-β-cyclocitral for use as internal standards in stable isotope dilution assays

C13 Norisoprenoids are important aroma compounds in wine, giving positive attributes to the overall wine aroma even when found at very low levels. β-Ionone is considered one of the most important aroma compounds giving violet, woody and raspberry aromas to wine, fruits and vegetables in which it is found. Due to its potent aroma at low levels, precise analytical methods are desired for its quantification. Stable isotope dilution assay (SIDA) is one of the most important of these methods but requires the use of isotopically labelled standards. Herein, we describe the scalable synthesis of d6-β-ionone and d6-β-cyclocitral, another aroma compound with smokey and fruity notes, starting from the relatively inexpensive deuterated starting material d6-acetone.

The beech leaf-mining weevil, Orchestes fagi (L.), also known as the beech flea weevil, is a common and widespread pest of beech, Fagus sylvatica L., in its native Europe. It now appears to be well established in Nova Scotia, Canada. We report a novel synthesis of 9-geranyl-p-cymene and syntheses of 9-geranyl-α-terpinene and 1,1-dimethyl-3-methylene-2-vinylcyclohexane, making partial use of known methods. All three of these compounds are found in beech leaf volatiles and/or wood and are putative kairomones of the beech leaf-mining weevil.

3-Oxo-5-alkynoic acid esters, on treatment with a carbophilic catalyst, undergo 6-endo-dig cyclization reactions to furnish either 2-pyrones or 4-pyrones in high yields. The regiochemical course can be dialed in by the proper choice of the alcohol part of the ester and the π-acid. This transformation is compatible with a variety of acid-sensitive groups as witnessed by a number of exigent applications to the total synthesis of natural products, including pseudopyronine A, hispidine, phellinin A, the radininol family, neurymenolide, violapyrone, wailupemycin and an unnamed brominated 4-pyrone of marine origin. Although the reaction proceeds well in neutral medium, the rate is largely increased when HOAc is used as solvent or co-solvent, which is thought to favor the protodeauration of the reactive alkenyl-gold intermediates as the likely rate-determining step of the catalytic cycle. Such intermediates are prone to undergo diauration as an off-cycle event that sequesters the catalyst; this notion is consistent with literature data and supported by the isolation of the gem-diaurated complexes 12 and 15. Furthermore, silver catalysis allowed access to be gained to 2-alkoxypyridine and 2-alkoxyisoquinoline derivatives starting from readily available imidate precursors.
Biomimetic cyclization of small terpenoids promoted by zeolite NaY: Tandem formation of α-ambrinol from geranyl acetone

, p. 1280 - 1284 (2007/10/03)
Zeolite NaY promotes efficiently the biomimetic cyclization of small acyclic terpenes. Geranyl and neryl acetone undergo a novel tandem 1,5-diene cyclization/carbonyl-ene reaction to form the natural product α-ambrinol isolated in >65% yield.
Total Synthesis of (+)-Acanthodoral by the Use of a Pd-Catalyzed Metal-ene Reaction and a Nonreductive 5-exo-Acyl Radical Cyclization
Zhang, Liming,Koreeda, Masato
, p. 537 - 540 (2007/10/03)
(Equation presented) The first total synthesis of the antibiotic acanthodoral (1) has been achieved from 3-methyl-2-cyclohexen-1-one in 19 steps in 2.1% overall yield. The synthesis features the use of a Pd-ene reaction in the presence of CO to form the endocyclic alkene 8, a nonreductive acyl radical cyclization reaction, and a ring contraction reaction by the Wolff rearrangement. (+)-Acanthodoral has also been synthesized starting from (+)-S-2,2-dimethyl-6-methylenecyclohexanecarboxylic acid.
Synthesis and olfactory evaluation of (+)- and (-)-γ-ionone

, p. 2761 - 2768 (2007/10/03)
The synthesis of enantiomerically pure (+)- and (-)-γ-ionone 3 is reported. The first step in the synthesis is the diastereoisomeric enrichment of 4-nitrobenzoate derivatives of racemic γ-ionol 12. The enantioselective lipase-mediated kinetic acetylation
Isocyclic allylsilanes: An efficient one-pot synthesis of allylic hydroxymethyl methylenecycloalkane building blocks by a controlled H-ene/protodesilylation sequence using two different Lewis acids
Monti, Honore,Feraud, Michel
, p. 1721 - 1728 (2007/10/03)
An efficient one-pot synthesis of useful allylic hydroxymethyl methylenecycloalkane building blocks was achieved by a controlled H-ene/protodesilylation sequence using two different Lewis acids (Me2AlCl/SnCl4) and starting from readily available isocyclic allylsilanes.
Synthesis of (+/-)-trixagol by an electrophilic cyclization of an allylsilane
Armstrong, Rosemary J.,Weiler, Larry
, p. 2530 - 2539 (2007/10/02)
1,5-Dienes containing an allylsilane are cyclized by Lewis acids to methylenecyclohexanes.The trimethylsilyl group exerts a strong activating and directing influence on the regioselectivity of this cyclization.The monocyclic compound 10 was converted into the diterpene, (+/-)-trixagol (3).
