Published: August 2016

Two contrasting pathways in a SnCl4-catalyzed reaction of geminal bis(silyl) enol derivatives with β,γ-unsaturated ketoesters have been achieved by tuning the R group in the enol moiety. While the electron-donating Bn-substituted enol ether undergoes an exo-selective inverse-electron-demand Diels-Alder (IEDDA) reaction to give dihydropyran, the electron-withdrawing Ac-substituted enol ester reacts as an allylsilane to provide a Sakurai-allylated product with predominant syn-selectivity.

Total Syntheses of Bryostatins 1, 7, 9 and 9-N3.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl

January 2025

Sichuan University, West China School of Pharmacy, Renmin Sout Road, 3rd Section, 17#, 610041, Chengdu, CHINA.

Bryostatins are a family of marine natural products that have garnered significant interests, as evidenced by over 40 clinical trials. However, their extremely low natural abundance has severely limited further research. Despite significant efforts, which have led to the total synthesis of seven bryostatin members by eight independent research groups, these complex molecules present persistent challenges for stereocontrolled, large-scale, and especially divergent synthesis.

Intramolecular Sakurai Allylation of Geminal Bis(silyl) Enamide with Indolenine. A Diastereoselective Cyclization To Form Functionalized Hexahydropyrido[3,4-]Indole.

Key Laboratory of Drug-Targeting and Drug Delivery System of the Education Ministry and Sichuan Province, Sichuan Engineering Laboratory for Plant-Sourced Drug and Sichuan Research Center for Drug Precision Industrial Technology, West China School of Pharmacy, Sichuan University, Chengdu, 610041, China.

A fluoride-promoted intramolecular Sakurai allylation of geminal bis(silyl) enamide with indolenine has been developed. The reaction facilitates an efficient cyclization to give hexahydropyrido[3,4-]indoles in good yields with high diastereoselectivity. The resulted , -stereochemistry further enables the ring-closing metathesis (RCM) reaction of two alkene moieties, giving a tetracyclic -hetereocycle widely found as the core structure in akuammiline alkaloids.

exo/endo Selectivity Control in Diels-Alder Reactions of Geminal Bis(silyl) Dienes: Theoretical and Experimental Studies.

J Org Chem

Key Laboratory of Green Chemistry and Technology, Ministry of Education, College of Chemistry , Sichuan University, Chengdu 610041 , People's Republic of China.

The factors controlling the reactivity and exo/ endo selectivity of Diels-Alder reactions of geminal bis(silyl) dienes catalyzed by AlEtCl are studied at the B3LYP-D3(BJ)(SMD,CHCl)/6-31++G**//B3LYP-D3(BJ)(SMD,CHCl)/6-31+G* theoretical level. The reaction proceeds via a two-stage one-step mechanism, and the AlEtCl as a Lewis acid catalyst enhances the electrophilicity of the carbonyl compound by coordination, consequently accelerating a cycloaddition reaction with a low energy barrier. A geminal bis(silyl) group of the diene and an α-substituent in α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds adjust the interaction energy (Δ E) as well as the deformation energy (Δ E) of the diene and dienophile, affecting the barrier height and the diastereochemical outcome accordingly.

Unique Steric Effect of Geminal Bis(silane) To Control the High Exo-selectivity in Intermolecular Diels-Alder Reaction.

J Am Chem Soc

February 2016

Key Laboratory of Drug Targeting and Drug Delivery System, Ministry of Education, Department of Medicinal Chemistry, West China School of Pharmacy, Sichuan University, Chengdu 610041, P. R. China.

The unique steric effect of geminal bis(silane) [(R3Si)2CH] allows an exo-selective intermolecular Diels-Alder reaction of geminal bis(silyl) dienes with α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds. The approach shows good generality to form ortho-trans cyclohexenes in good yields with high exo-selectivity and high enantioselectivity in some asymmetric cases. The excellent exo-stereocontrol aptitude of (R3Si)2CH group is highlighted by comparing with R3SiCH2 and R3Si groups, which leads to endo-selectivity predominantly.
