Synthesis of optically active seven-membered 1,5-anhydrocarbasugars and 1,4,5-tribenzoyloxy-2-ethoxy cycloheptanes via [5+2] cycloaddition
摘要
[5+2] Cycloaddition followed by asymmetric dihydroxylation procedure have been utilized to prepare novel cyclitols. Accordingly, rac-2伪-hydroxy-6伪-ethoxy-1,5-anhydro cyclohept-3-ene, dFont">10 derived from [5+2] cycloaddition of 3-oxidopyrylium ylide and vinyl ether has been recognized as a seven-membered carbasugar equivalent and elaborated to 1,4,5-tribenzoyloxy-2-ethoxy cycloheptanes through a flexible, regio- and stereoselective strategy involving Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation conditions to resolve the compounds obtained. The structures and relative configurations of newly synthesized (+)-2伪-acetoxy-6伪-ethoxy-3尾,4尾-dihydroxy-1,5-anhydro cycloheptane ((+)-dFont">12)); (鈭?-1尾,4尾,5尾-tribenzoyloxy-6伪-ethoxy cycloheptane ((鈭?-dFont">17) and (+)-1伪,4伪,5伪-tribenzoyloxy-6尾-ethoxy cycloheptane ((+)-dFont">17) are unambiguously established by single crystal X-ray analysis and duly supported by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy data.
