Stereoselective synthesis of highly substituted bicyclic gamma-lactones using homoaldol addition of 1-(1-cycloalkenyl)methyl carbamates

Stereoselective addition of aldehydes 4 to metallated 1-(1-cycloalkenyl)methyl NN-diisopropylcarbamates 1 gave cyclic homoaldol adducts 6. By applying the (-)-sparteine method, enantiomerically enriched products were obtained. These were oxidatively cyclized to diastereomerically pure gamma-lactones...

Summary:Stereoselective addition of aldehydes 4 to metallated 1-(1-cycloalkenyl)methyl NN-diisopropylcarbamates 1 gave cyclic homoaldol adducts 6. By applying the (-)-sparteine method, enantiomerically enriched products were obtained. These were oxidatively cyclized to diastereomerically pure gamma-lactones 8 via the gamma-lactol ethers 7. After deprotonation of gamma-lactones 8 with lithium hexamethyldisilazide, a further substitution was achieved. By trapping the lactone enolates 11 with beta-naphthylmethyl bromide, single diastereomers of gamma-lactones 12 were produced.
