Oxonium Ylide Rearrangements: A Novel Approach Towards the Synthesis of the Phorbol SkeletonStewart, Craig 06 1900 (has links)
Oxonium ylides are highly reactive intermediates that can be used for the synthesis of heterocyclic and carbocyclic frameworks. These putative intermediates are almost exclusively formed from diazocarbonyl derived metallocarbenes, by attack of a pendent oxygen atom. Oxonium ylides have been shown to furnish products derived from the [1,2]-shift (Stevens rearrangement) or the [2,3]-shift in an efficient manner. Chapter 1 is a review of oxonium ylides in synthesis focusing on factors that influence the reactivity of these intermediates.
Previous work has shown that the sulfur-directed Stevens rearrangement is an efficient reaction for the generation of seven and eight-membered oxa-bridged carbocycles fused to five-membered rings. Chapter 2 describes an extension of this chemistry where six-seven and six-eight membered oxa-bridged carbocyclic products were furnished in good yields. The chemo- and diastereoselectivity of these rearrangements was dependent on the configuration of the acetal stereocentre present in the diazoketone precursor.
A novel approach towards the synthesis of the tigliane and daphnane diterpenes is described in Chapter 3. The tricyclic framework was generated from a highly stereoselective oxygen-directed Stevens rearrangement of an oxonium ylide. This methodology provides a straightforward route to the construction of the five-seven-six ring system found in these classes of natural products.
Finally, the sulfur-directed Stevens [1,2]-shift was employed in an attempted total synthesis of the natural product (+)-phorbol in Chapter 4. Several variations of the original synthetic scheme were examined, in an effort to construct the core 6-7 ring structure. The Stevens rearrangement was found to provide the 6-7 ring system of phorbol in excellent yield. The chemo- and diastereoselectivity of this rearrangement was dependent on the configuration of the acetal centre as well as the conformation of the six-membered ring in the starting material. In the future, this advanced intermediate could be used to achieve the total synthesis of (+)-phorbol.
