A biomimetic, regio- and stereoselective approach to the 5,6,11-tricyclic core skeleton of xenovulene A, as well as sterhirsutins A and B, is described. The key steps are a biomimetic inverse-electron-demand hetero-Diels-Alder cycloaddition of α-humulene and a ribose-derived vinyl ketone, followed by acid-catalyzed rearrangement of the 1,3-dioxolane that neighbors the resultant cyclic enol ether.
描述了一种仿生、区域和立体选择性方法,用于构建 xenovulene A、sterhirsutins A 和 B 的 5,6,11-三环核心骨架。关键步骤是α-葎草烯和核糖衍生的乙烯酮的仿生逆电子需求杂 Diels-Alder 环加成反应,随后是紧邻所得环状烯醇醚的 1,3-二氧戊环在酸催化下的重排。
