A comprehensive study on the lipase PS-mediated resolution of different hydroxy-geraniol isomers is reported. A number of α-, β- and γ-isomers bearing a 2-, 3- or 4-hydroxy functional group were synthesised regioselectively and then submitted to the lipase-mediated kinetic acetylation. The latter experiments showed that the 2-hydroxy isomers 4, 5 and 14 (α, γ and β, respectively) as well as cis-3-hydroxy α-cyclogeraniol 7 and cis-4-hydroxy γ-cyclogeraniol 10 could be easily resolved by this procedure. The enantiomeric purity of the main part of these compounds was increased by recrystallisation and the enantiopure diols obtained were used as building blocks for the synthesis of the natural terpenoids karahana lactone, karahana ether and crocusatin C and for the preparation of the synthetic intermediate γ-cyclogeraniol. The absolute configurations of the enantiomers of the diols 7, 10, 14 and 19 were determined by chemical correlation with the known compounds 40, 41, 39 and 41, respectively.
Synthetic scheme for the preparation of 13C-labeled 3,4-didehydro-retinal, 3-hydroxyretinal, and 4-hydroxyretinal up to uniform 13C-enrichment

A modular synthetic scheme has been developed for the synthesis of 13C-labeled naturally occurring visual pigment chromophores; 3,4-didehydroretinal, 3-hydroxyretinal, and 4-hydroxyretinal. These compounds can now be made with > 99% 13C enrichment at any position or combination of positions. We used the common C10+C5+C5 scheme for the synthesis of retinals, and by making variations in the C10 part we can now prepare the desired retinal derivatives with selective or uniform 13C enrichment.

In a synthetic approach to (+/-)-forskolin 1, a stereoselective preparation of the unsaturated lactone 2 was envisaged.Propargylic derivatives 18a-c were prepared from available α-ionone 5 and treated with Bu3SnH/AIBN to give the bicyclic vinylstannanes 19a-c in high yield.From these compounds we then performed transmetallation reactions to obtain the 21a-c and 22b homologous derivatives.The two enyne compounds 29 and 30 were then prepared by our previous approach to lactone 2 involving a radical C7-C8 bond formation.In a second radical approach promoted by SmI2, the diol 10, was used to synthesize a potential precursor of the dialdehyde 9. - Keywords: forskolin; tributylstannane; radical cyclization; transmetallation; vinylstannane; vinyl iodide; Pd(0) coupling reaction
