Dioxolanones as Synthetic Intermediates. Part 3. Biomimetic Synthesis of Pulvinic Acids

The reaction of the phosphorane (16) with methyl arylglyoxylates gives 5-(α-methoxycarbonylarylidene)-2,2-pentamethylene-1,3-dioxolan-4-ones which have been treated with the lithium enolates of t-butyl phenylacetic esters to provide a biomimetic synthesis of pulvinic acids.By this method pulvinic acid (2), vulpinic acid (1), and the unsymmetrically substituted compounds, leprapinic acid (3), and xerocomic acid (4) have been prepared; the last named was obtained via an intermediate (28) in which the phenolic groups were protected as benzyl ethers.
