Allylic oxidations of olefins to enones allow the efficient synthesis of value-added products from simple olefinic precursors like terpenes or terpenoids. Biocatalytic variants have a large potential for industrial applications, particularly in the pharmaceutical and food industry. Herein we report efficient biocatalytic allylic oxidations of spirocyclic terpenoids by a lyophilisate of the edible fungus Pleurotus sapidus. This ''mushroom catalysis'' is operationally simple and allows the conversion of various unsaturated spirocyclic terpenoids. A number of new spirocyclic enones have thus been obtained with good regio- and chemoselectivity and chiral separation protocols for enantiomeric mixtures have been developed. The oxidations follow a radical mechanism and the regioselectivity of the reaction is mainly determined by bond-dissociation energies of the available allylic CH-bonds and steric accessibility of the oxidation site.

A variety of substituted 1-oxaspiro[4.4]non-6-ene. 1-oxaspiro[4.5]dec-6- ene, 6-oxaspiro[4.5]dec-1-ene and 1-oxaspiro[5.5]undec-7-ene systems have been prepared by utilizing Amberlyst-15-catalyzed intramolecular S(N)2' oxaspirocyclizations of secondary allylic alcohols under mild reaction conditions in quantitative yields. This oxaspirocyclization was applied to the total synthesis of theaspirane and theaspirone from β-ionone in five steps. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.
