One-pot processes for the synthesis of benzo[b]furans from 1-aryl- or 1-alkylketones using nonprecious transition metal catalysts have been developed. Regioselective iron(III)-catalyzed halogenation of the aryl ring, followed by iron- or copper-catalyzed O-arylation allowed the synthesis of various structural analogues, including the benzo[b]furan-derived natural products corsifuran C, moracin F, and caleprunin B.

Compelling evidence for the intermediacy of the free β-keto acid 1, rather than the corresponding enzyme-bound thiolate as previously proposed, in the biosynthesis of the antibiotic actinorhodin (2) was obtained from studies of the enantioselective reduction of a range of β-keto acids by the engineered strain of S. coelicolor CH999/pIJ5675. This excellent whole-cell biotransformation system gave the desired S β-hydroxy acids with >95% ee.

[structure] Two general routes to 1,4-disubstituted-2,3,4, 5-tetrahydro-1H-3-benzazepines are described. Both routes utilize an appropriately functionalized phenethylamino alcohol as the penultimate intermediate: the first route makes use of the reductive amination of a benzyl alkyl ketone with alpha-(aminomethyl)benzyl alcohol, while the second route utilizes the addition of a Grignard reagent to the oxazolidine derived from a substitued phenylacetaldehyde and alpha-(methylaminomethyl)benzyl alcohol. In all cases studied, the cis-1,4-disubstituted-2,3,4, 5-tetrahydro-1H-3-benzazepine was obtained as the major product.

This report details the synthesis of 1) 3,4,4'-trihydroxy-α,α'-diethyl-trans-stilbene; 2) 3,4-bis-(p-hydroxyphenyl)-trans-3-hexenol; 3) 3,4-bis-(p-hydroxyphenyl)-2,4-cis,cis-hexadienol; 4) 3,4-bis-(3'-methoxy-4'-hydroxyphenyl)-trans-3-hexene; 5) 3,4-bis-(3',4'-dimethoxyphenyl)-trans-3-hexene.These compounds are suspected metabolites of diethylstilbestrol.
