Reaction of methyl 4,5-epoxy-(2E)-pentenoate with arenes. II. Application to the synthesis of(±)-curcudiol, (±)-curcuphenol, (±)-curcuhydroquinone, and(±)-curcuquinone

Four bisabolane sesquiterpenes, (±)-curcudiol (2), (±)-curcuphenol (3), (±)-curcuhydroquinone (5) and (±)-curcuquinone (6), were synthesized based on the reaction of methyl 4,5-epoxy-(2E)-pentenoate (1) with methoxytoluenes in the presence of boron trifluoride etherate.

A FACILE SYNTHESIS OF 4-ARYL-5-HYDROXY-(2E)-PENTENOATE DERIVATIVES AND ITS APPLICATIONS TO THE FIRST SYNTHESIS OF (+/-)-CURUCUDIOL, (+/-)-CURCUHYDROQUINONE AND (+/-)-CURCUQUINONE

The first syntheses of three kinds of bisabolane sesquiterpenes, (+/-)-curcudiol (29), (+/-)-curcuhydroquinone (40) and (+/-)-curcuquinone (41) were achieved based on the BF3*Et2O catalyzed reaction of (+/-) methyl 4,5-epoxy-(2E)-pentenoate (1) and polyme
