A high yielding route to the (-)-platensimycin core is communicated. This entailed the discovery of Bi(OTf)(3) to catalyze a Friedel-Crafts cyclization of a free lactol, supplemented by LiClO(4) to suppress the Lewis basicity of the sulfonate group. After TBAF-promoted cyclodearomatization, a diastereoselective conjugate reduction of a dienone was achieved by adopting amine-based organocatalytic rationales to reverse the inherent steric control of the substrate.
我们介绍了一种高产率合成(-)-platensimycin 核心结构的路线。该路线的关键步骤包括发现三氟甲磺酸铋(Bi(OTf)(3))能够催化游离内脂的傅克环化反应,并用 LiClO(4)抑制磺酸酯基的路易斯碱性。经过三氟化硼四丁基醚促进的环脱氢芳构化反应后,采用基于胺的有机催化原理,实现了一个二烯酮的非对映选择性共轭还原反应,从而逆转了底物固有的立体控制。
