Synthesis of Spiro[5.4]decenones and Their Transformation into Bicyclo[4.4]deca-1,4-dien-3-ones by Domino "Elimination- Double-Wagner-Meerwein-Rearrangement" Reactions

The [3+3] cyclization of 1,3‐bis‐silyl enol ethers with 1,1‐diacylcyclopentanes allows a convenient synthesis of spiro[5.4]decenones. Treatment of these compounds with trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) afforded a great variety of bicyclo[4.4.0]deca‐1,4‐dien‐3‐ones containing an angular alkyl group. This co...

Summary:The [3+3] cyclization of 1,3‐bis‐silyl enol ethers with 1,1‐diacylcyclopentanes allows a convenient synthesis of spiro[5.4]decenones. Treatment of these compounds with trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) afforded a great variety of bicyclo[4.4.0]deca‐1,4‐dien‐3‐ones containing an angular alkyl group. This core structure occurs in a number of pharmacologically relevant natural products. Die [3+3] Cyclisierung von 1,3‐Bis‐Silylenolethern mit 1,1‐Diacylcyclopentanen ermöglicht eine effiziente Synthese von Spiro[5.4]decenonen. Durch Behandlung dieser Verbindungen mit Trifluoressigsäure (TFA) konnte eine große Bandbreite von Bicyclo[4.4.0]deca‐1,4‐dien‐3‐onen mit angularer Alkylgruppe hergestellt werden. Dieses Gerüstsystem tritt in einer Reihe pharmakologisch relevanter Naturstoffe auf. Meeting in the middle: The [3+3] cyclization of 1,3‐bis‐silyl enol ethers with 1,1‐diacylcyclopentanes allows a convenient synthesis of spiro[5.4]decenones. Treatment of these compounds with trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) afforded a variety of bicyclo[4.4.0]deca‐1,4‐dien‐3‐ones by domino “elimination–double‐Wagner–Meerwein‐rearrangement” reactions (see scheme; MS=molecular sieves).
