Asymmetric synthesis of the pentacyclic alkaloid (-)-cephalotaxine was accomplished via palladium-catalyzed enantioselective Tsuji allylation for construction of the aza-containing tetrasubstituted stereogenic center (95% yield, 93% ee). The allyl enol carbonate precursor was prepared from Hanaoka's ketone intermediate, which was formed by a novel formic acid promoted ring-expansion reaction.
通过钯催化的对映选择性 Tsuji 烯丙基化反应,实现了五环生物碱(-)-喜树碱的不对称合成,用于构建含氮的四取代手性中心(95%产率,93%ee)。烯丙基碳酸酯前体是由 Hanaoka 酮中间体制备的,该中间体是通过新型甲酸促进的环扩张反应形成的。
