[reaction and structure: see text] Not only axial but also helical chirality of tropos TETRAPHOS-Rh complexes can be controlled by chiral diamines. The flexibility of the TETRAPHOS-Rh complex is increased by association of DABN. In contrast, the diamine-free complex is chirally more stable than the BIPHEP counterpart. The higher levels of enantioselectivity in ene-type cyclization of 1,6-enynes can thus be achieved even at room temperature by the diamine-free TETRAPHOS-Rh complex.

Biomimetic total syntheses of renifolin F and antiarone K.

Org Biomol Chem

June 2024

Department of Chemistry, Indian Institute of Technology Hyderabad, Kandi, Sangareddy, 502284, India.

The first biomimetic and concise racemic total syntheses of renifolin F and antiarone K, accomplished in 8 and 7 linear steps, respectively, are presented in this article. Our synthetic approach commences with substituted aldehydes to produce prenylated aldol products followed by ene-type intramolecular cyclization affording a five-member core ring. This key step mediated by InCl·4HO is a novel procedure first utilized in prenylated systems which directly culminates mainly into tertiary alcohols.

The bridged diazatricycloundecane sp-rich scaffold was synthesised the gold(I)-catalysed Conia-ene reaction. The electron-donating property of the siloxymethyl group on alkyne 1 enabled 6- cyclization, whereas the ethoxy carbonyl group on alkyne 4 led to 5- cyclization with complete regioselectivity in the Conia-ene reaction. The resulting bridged diazatricycloundecane scaffold 5 allowed the construction of a library of sp-rich compounds.
