Title: Synthesis of complex hexacyclic compounds via a tandem Rh(II)-catalyzed double-cyclopropanation/Cope rearrangement/Diels-Alder reaction. Author: Spangler JE, Lian Y, Raikar SN, Davies HM. Journal: Org Lett; 2014 Sep 19; 16(18):4794-7. PubMed ID: 25208337. Abstract: Treatment of (E)-1-(methoxymethylene)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene with styryl diazoacetates in the presence of catalytic amounts of the dirhodium complex Rh2(S-DOSP)4 provides a highly enantioenriched hexacyclic product with 10 new stereogenic centers. The transformation proceeds by a cascade sequence starting with a double cyclopropanation of a benzene ring, followed by a Cope rearrangement of a divinylcyclopropane and then an intramolecular Diels-Alder cycloaddition.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
