Seven-Memberedd Ring Formation via Ring-Closing Metathesis

4.11 Introduction

Att the end of Chapter 3 it was concluded that it was impossible to construct the seven-memberedd ring of 1 via an intramolecular carbonyl coupling reaction. An alternative intermediatee in the construction of the densely-functionalized seven-membered ring could be dienee 2. Compound 1 was deemed accessible from 2 via oxidative functionalization of its leastt substituted double bond (Scheme 4.1).

4.22 Strategy

Thee most frequently used method for regioselective formation of CC double bonds is thee Wittig reaction or modifications thereof.1 Inter- as well as intramolecular2 Wittig reactions aree known. By choosing the appropriate substituents on phosphorus and by selecting adequate conditionss for ylide formation the stereoselectivity of the Wittig reaction (EIZ ratio of the alkene)) can be controlled to a large extent. In literature the formation of unsaturated seven-memberedd rings via such reactions has also been described (Figure 4.1). For example, Becker andd coworkers3 cyclized the cycloheptene ring of hydrozulene 6 by an intramolecular Wittig reactionn and the same type of reaction was used to construct the cycloheptenone ring of (-)-reiswiginn A (7) by Park and coworkers.4

Thee construction of intermediate 2 via an intramolecular Wittig reaction requires the usee of a phosphonium salt such as 3 as starting material. The synthesis of 3 might be accomplishedd starting from intermediate 9, which was described in the previous Chapter (Sectionn 3.3.2). Schemee 4.2 TBDPSO. .

Seven-MemberedSeven-Membered Ring Formation via Ring-Closing Metathesis Alcoholl 9 was obtained from lactone 8 in four steps (Scheme 4.2). Introduction of the

iodidee was envisaged at this stage. Deprotection of the primary hydroxyl group of 10 followedd by oxidation might afford aldehyde 11. The latter should then be converted to the desiredd phosphonium salt 3. The number of functional group transformations necessary to synthesizee this phosphonium salt seriously disfavors this method.

AA second pathway to a CC double bond is the intramolecular McMurry coupling of aldehydes.. This approach is not applicable, because it appeared impossible to synthesize the requiredd dialdehyde 5 (see: Section 3.3.2).

AA third approach to the targeted seven-membered ring involves CC double bond formationn via ring-closing metathesis (RCM) of triene 4. Although this is a relatively new syntheticc method, its usefulness has already frequently been demonstrated and the number of applicationss are still expanding exponentially. A key feature of this reaction is the functional groupp compatibility of the metathesis catalysts, which in combination with the anticipated facilee accessibility of the required triene rendered this an attractive approach.

Thee versatility of this reaction in natural product synthesis is best demonstrated by two literaturee examples (Figure 4.2). The groups of Nicolaou5 and Danishefsky6 independently synthesizedd epothilone A (12) using RCM as one of the key steps. A macrocyclic ring closure too obtain the 13-membered ring of roseophilin (13) was reported by the groups of Fuchs7 and Hiemstra.8 8

4.2.11 Ring-Closing Metathesis

Hitherto,, the olefin metathesis9 reaction developed into a powerful tool for the formationn of CC bonds.10 The development of this process commenced with the discovery of Karll Ziegler that certain transition metal catalysts promote polymerization of olefins. Soon itt was discovered that some of these 'Ziegler-type' catalysts did not only lead to polymerization,, but could also effect a mutual alkylidene exchange reaction of alkenes (eq 4.1).. These first generation catalysts were poorly compatible with polar functional groups, whichh restricted their application to the production of unfunctionalized polymers.

Thee breakthrough came with the discovery of reasonably stable tungsten and molybdenumm alkylidene complexes by Schrock and coworkers11 (14, Figure 4.3). These catalystss were compatible with polar functional groups and therefore could be used in more advancedd synthetic organic applications.

AA disadvantage of the Schrock catalysts was their extreme air and moisture sensitivity ass well as decomposition upon storage. The value of the RCM reaction in organic synthesis improvedd greatly after the Grubbs' ruthenium-based catalyst 15 became available.12

Seven-MemberedSeven-Membered Ring Formation via Ring-Closing Metathesis

Thee generally accepted mechanism13 of the metathesis reaction consists of a sequence off formal [2+2] cycloadditions/cycloreversions involving the alkenes and metal alkylidenes (Schemee 4.3). All individual steps of the catalytic cycle are reversible and, as a consequence, thee overall transformation is reversible. Therefore, it is necessary to shift the equilibrium in onee direction to make the metathesis practical in preparative terms. Ring-closing metathesis off a diene (16) is an entropically driven process since one substrate molecule delivers two products.. Especially, if one of the products can be readily removed (i.e. the volatile ethene), thee desired cycloalkene (17) will accumulate in the reaction mixture.

Thee substitution pattern of the diene has a significant influence on the reactivity of the RCMM catalysts. Unsubstituted dienes (19, R = H) generally provide the cyclic products (20, R == H) with catalysts 14 or 15 in good to excellent yields (eq 4.2).9 1 4 When the double bonds

aree increasingly substituted (19, R = Me) the yield of the RCM process drops and only Schrock'ss molybdenum alkylidene complexes 14 afford the desired product. 14 4

Recently,, more active ruthenium-catalysts, such as 2 11 5 and 2214, have been reported inn the literature (Figure 4.4).16 The reactivity of these 'second-generation' ruthenium catalysts is,, without loss of functional group tolerance, significantly higher than that of Grubbs' catalystt 15 and comes close to or even surpasses that of the Schrock's molybdenum alkylidenee complexes 14.14'15 Ring-closure of diene 19 (R = H or Me) was accomplished by bothh catalysts (21 or 22) in moderate to good yields.14'17

4.2.22 Retrosynthesis

Solanoeclepinn A analogue 1 was expected to be accessible from pinacol 23 via oxidationn of both hydroxyl groups to afford a 1,2-diketone (Scheme 4.4), followed by the appropriatee functionalization to the tetracyclic left-hand substructure. 1,2-Diol 23 was anticipatedd to be formed by oxidative functionalization of diene 2, which should arise from RCMM of 4. RCM precursor 4 should be available from lactone 24 using a similar functional groupp transformation strategy as was described in Chapter 3. Lactone 24 could probably be thee product of an analogous chromium-mediated coupling of aldehyde 25 and vinyl triflate 26 ass was discussed in the previous Chapter (Section 3.3.1).

4.3.11 Chromium-Mediated Coupling

Whenn aldehyde 25 and vinyl triflate 26 were subjected to the chromium-mediated couplingg conditions a,P-unsaturated lactone 24 and its diastereomer (27) were isolated (eq 4.3).. In this case a mixture of diastereomers was found, in contrast with the single isomer foundd in the chromium-mediated coupling discussed previously (Section 3.3.1).

In principal, there are six possible conformationss of aldehyde 25, two of which are significantly more stable (25a and 25b). Mostt likely, no chelation of chromium is possible in either case. MM2 force field calculations (Chem3D™™ version 5.0) on 25a and 25b show that the steric energy of conformation 25b is

1.99 kcal/mol lower than that of conformation 25a. This suggests conformation 25b to be predominantlyy present which, upon Si-attack of nucleophile 28, would lead to the major isomer. .

Thee mixture of diastereomers could easily be separated by column chromatography. Comparisonn of the spectral data of lactone 24 with lactone 29 (see: Section 3.3.1, Figure 4.5) suggestss that the major isomer possesses the desired \9-{S) configuration. This hypothesis wass in a later stage unambiguously confirmed by X-ray analysis of the tetracyclic left-hand substructuree (1).

4.3.22 Synthesis of the Ring-Closing Metathesis Precursor

Att this point, the a,P-unsaturated lactone 24 had to be converted into the RCM precursor.. A highly efficient six-step procedure was developed to accomplish this transformation.. The sequence started with the rapid lithium aluminum hydride reduction of lactonee 24 (Scheme 4.6). The same protective group strategy as discussed in Chapter 3 (Sectionn 3.3.2) was applied on diol 30. Thus, the primary hydroxyl group was protected as a

tert-butyldimethylsilyltert-butyldimethylsilyl ether (31) and the secondary hydroxyl group as an acetate to give compoundd 32. Schemee 4.6 O O O—ff OH T B D P S OV/ - ^ A ^ ^^ LiAlH4 TBDPSO» < / ^^ *---/ Et20, it, 30 min OH H TBDMSC1,, imidazole DMF F 24 4 ^uu .OTBDMS OHH \ TBDPSO, ,

Althoughh this pathway was very efficient, six steps were required to convert lactone 244 into the RCM precursor. A somewhat shorter route was therefore briefly investigated (eq 4.4)..

To increase the yield the organolithiumm species was transmetallated with Ce3+ by adding anhydrous CeCl3 to the

reactionn mixture. Subsequent addition of pivaldehyde resulted in the alcohol 40 in virtually quantitativee yield. TBDPSO. . transmetallation n THF F 25 5 TBDPSO. . (4.6) )

Encouragedd by these results aldehyde 25 was treated with the organolithium species derivedd from 36 (eq 4.6). The latter, however, turned out to be too basic as a rapid decompositionn of aldehyde 25 into unidentifiable products was observed. The reaction of

(11)

aldehydee 25 with the corresponding organocerium species was also unsuccessful, because the nucleophilee appeared not reactive enough and the starting material was recovered completely. Moreover,, different organometallic compounds, such as organochromium and magnesium species,, were not sufficiently reactive and aldehyde 25 was recovered unchanged. It became evidentt that this approach to shorten the synthetic route failed and that the six-step protocol to thee RCM precursor had to be employed.

4.3.33 Ring-Closing Metathesis

Whenn triene 35 was dissolved in CH2C12 and subjected to a catalytic amount (ca. 10

mol%)) of Grubbs' catalyst (15) no cyclization was observed (Scheme 4.8). An additional amountt of catalyst and increase of the reaction temperature to reflux did not improve the situation.. To attain an even higher reaction temperature the triene was dissolved in toluene. Satisfyingly,, after the addition of 10 mol% of the catalyst cyclization of 35 at 70 °C was observed.. Unfortunately, there was still starting material remaining and because it could not bee separated form the product by column chromatography, it was decided to add more of the ruthenium-catalystt to achieve a complete conversion. In the presence of 1 equiv of Ru-catalystt all starting material was consumed after 16 h and purification afforded diene 41 in an excellentt yield. AcO O Schemee 4.8 AcO O

Althoughh a superb cyclization was achieved, this rather slow process required stoichiometricc amounts of the catalyst. A decrease of the amount of catalyst could not be achievedd by increasing (reflux) or decreasing (50 °C) the reaction temperature. Probably, the shortt half-life time of the original Grubbs' catalyst (approximately 40 min at 50 °C)22 is the explanationn for the high catalyst consumption. This problem was solved by using one of the neww generation ruthenium-based catalysts.15 Gratifyingly, only 15 mol% of the unsaturated imidazolin-2-ylidenee catalyst 2115 gave quantitative ring closure to form tetracyclic diene 41 afterr 16 h at 70 °C in toluene as the solvent.

4.3.44 Introduction of the Oxygen Substituents

Havingg diene 41 available, the least-substituted double bond needed to be funtionalizedd with oxygen substituents. The first attempt consisted of the introduction of a 1,2-diketonee (42) in one step (eq 4.7) using a known oxidation with KMn04 in AC2O under

anhydrouss conditions. '

Treatmentt of 41 under these conditions led to complete cleavage of the target olefin, resultingg in diacid 43 (eq 4.8). Apparently, these conditions were too harsh due to the sensitivityy of the CC double bond to oxidative cleavage.

TBDPSCVV ^ J - KMn04 TBDPSO.

Becausee it was impossible to introduce the 1,2-diketone directly, a milder three-step proceduree was developed. First the least hindered double bond was dihydroxylated (Scheme 4.9).. A generally used method for this transformation is the osmium tetroxide catalyzed dihydroxylationn of alkenes.25 Good chemoselectivity for the least substituted double bond was expectedd as it is known that such oxidations are strongly dependent on the substitution of the alkene. .

Treatmentt of diene 41 with a catalytic amount of osmium tetroxide and N-methylmorpholinee A^-oxide as the stoichiometric oxidant did not result in the desired product andd starting material was recovered, presumably due to steric shielding of the double bond. Ass reported in the literature, the reactivity of osmium tetroxide can be increased by adding tertiaryy amines.26,27 Recent studies on the mechanistic details of amine-accelerated dihydroxylationn with osmium tetroxide by Corey and coworkers28'29 suggest that a 2:1 complexx of 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine (DMAP) and osmium tetroxide could be an effective reagentt for this transformation. In fact, this reagent caused smooth and selective dihydroxylationn of the least hindered double bond of 41 to form a 78:22 mixture of cw-diols

44aa and 44b.

Thee next step in the procedure was the oxidation of the two hydroxyl groups (eq 4.9). Directt double oxidation of the mixture of 44 to the dione by using DMSO-based reagents did nott lead to isolatable products. The use of manganese dioxide or TPAP as the oxidant was alsoo unsuccessful. In these cases a rapid oxidation was observed causing CC bond cleavage to givee dialdehyde 45 in an almost quantitative yield.

Facedd with this disappointing result, it became obvious that direct oxidation to the dionee was not possible. However, it appeared possible to oxidize the hydroxyl groups separately.. In analogy with a literature precedent, ' the more reactive allylic hydroxyl group off 44 could be oxidized with Fétizon's reagent to give ot-hydroxyketone 46.

Itt was then found that 46 could be obtained even more efficiently from diol 44 using thee Dess-Martin periodinane (eq 4.10), if the reaction was carefully monitored to prevent overoxidation.. The a-hydroxyketone was obtained as a single isomer, presumably by equilibrationn of H-6 under the reaction conditions. In this isomer H-5 and H-6 have the

configurationn {J = 12.2 Hz) to allow intramolecular hydrogen bond formation between the hydroxyll group and the ketone. Although this oxidation resulted in the a-hydroxyketone as thee major product the formation of dialdehyde 45 could not be suppressed completely.

Thee last step to the diketone was the oxidation of the second hydroxyl group. To preventt CC bond cleavage as observed during all previous oxidative methods an alternative oxidativee agent should be used. Usually a-hydroxyketones can be oxidized to oc-diketones by usingg cupric acetate,33 or less often chromium(III) oxide33 or bismuth trioxide. In the fifties Blomquistt and coworkers33 oxidized sebacoin (47) to sebacil (48) by using cupric acetate in aqueouss HOAc/MeOH (10:1) (eq 4.11).

Seven-MemberedSeven-Membered Ring Formation via Ring-Closing Metathesis

Thee successful construction of the fully functionalized seven-membered ring is an importantt achievement in the context of an eventual total synthesis of solanoeclepin A. It was demonstratedd that 1 could be prepared starting from aldehyde 25 and vinyl triflate 26 (Scheme 4.12).. The route developed here paves the way for an enantioselective synthesis of solanoeclepinn A at the moment that vinyl triflate 55 becomes available.

4.44 Concluding Remarks

Inn this chapter a synthesis of the tetracyclic left-hand substructure (1) of solanoeclepin AA in enantiomeric pure form has been described (Scheme 4.13). This approach should eventuallyy make a synthesis of solanoeclepin A possible as soon as the appropriate right-hand sidee vinyl triflate becomes available. In this successful synthesis the top-side of the seven-memberedd ring was constructed via a highly efficient chromium mediated coupling o f aldehydee 25 and vinyl triflate 26, giving lactone 24 as the major diastereomer. Conversion of thee lactone carbonyl to a vinyl group led to RCM precursor 35. Subjection of the latter to the ruthenium-catalystt led to cyclization to the desired seven-membered ring in quantitative yield. Introductionn of the oxygen substituents was accomplished via dihydroxylation of the least substitutedd double bond and stepwise oxidation of diol 44. After removal of the silyl protectivee group and oxidation of the hydroxyl group the acetate was cleaved.
