The synthesis of (+)-varitriol (1) analogues was achieved through, the use of Julia olefination. The potential anticancer properties of 1 coupled with, our interest in developing building blocks that enable olefin formation under the Julia protocol constitute the basis of our research project. Efforts are aimed at the synthesis of building blocks 2 and 3 and to explore their use towards the synthesis of (+)-varit:riol analogues. Herein, we would, like to present the synthesis of building block 3 and its ability to react with variety of substituted aromatic-, heterocyclic- and carbohydrate-derived aldehydes to yield alkene 6 in moderate to good yields with E as the major isomer. The successful, coupling of 2 with (furanoside moieties) aldehydes 5k, 5m and 5n in particular and the obtainment of compound 23 reflect the promise associated with the new strategy.

The reactions of methyl-substituted anisoles with N-bromosuccinimide in CCl4 are reported.In the absence of a catalyst and under irradiation, some of these substrates undergo nuclear bromination in competition with the well-known side-chain bromination.With 2-methylanisole and with 2,6-dimethylanisole, nuclear bromination is not observed, whereas with 3,5-dimethylanisole, nuclear bromination at the 4-position is the dominating reaction.Investigation of the reactivity of several other methyl-substituted anisoles revealed the following general trend: methyl-substituted anisoles are attacked at the position para to the methoxy group rather than at the side chain when (at least) two methyl groups are present at positions 3 and 5.When positions 2 and 6 are both occupied, nuclear bromination is retarded; in 2,6-dimethylanisole and 2,3,6-trimethylanisole, only side-chain bromination is observed.In contrast, in 2,3,5,6-tetramethylanisole, the 4-position is sufficiently reactive to be brominated, because the decrease in reactivity by the presence of two methyl groups at positions 2 and 6 is overruled by the two additional methyl groups at positions 3 and 5; as a result, both nuclear and side-chain bromination occur.The observed chemospecificity can be rationalized by a difference in mechanism: the side-chain bromination is radical reaction, while the nuclear bromination is an electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction, which is so far contrary to expectation, as irradiation had been expected to favor radical processes.
