A new and diastereoselective method for the synthesis of the estrone skeleton from a substituted styrene based on sequential 3-fold use of Cp 2ZrBu 2 (oxidative addition-alkylation and two cyclization-alkylation sequences) and a ruthenium complex catalyzed RC-metathesis of a sterically hindered diene was developed. The prepared estratetraene was obtained in 7 steps from a commercially available starting material and thus the overall synthesis of estrone could be accomplished in 9 steps. Moreover, we have also found that the course of the reaction of substrates bearing the 2-halo-1,7-diene moiety with Cp 2ZrBu 2, i.e., cyclization or oxidative addition to the C-X bond, could be controlled by the nature of the halogen leaving group.
基于对Cp₂ZrBu₂的三次连续使用(氧化加成-烷基化以及两个环化-烷基化序列)和钌配合物催化的空间位阻二烯的RC-复分解反应,开发了一种从取代苯乙烯合成雌酮骨架的新的非对映选择性方法。从市售起始原料经7步反应得到制备的雌四烯,因此雌酮的全合成可在9步内完成。此外,我们还发现,带有2-卤代-1,7-二烯部分的底物与Cp₂ZrBu₂反应的过程,即C-X键的环化或氧化加成,可以通过离去卤素基团的性质来控制。
