Total Synthesis of (+)‐Ileabethoxazole via an Iron‐Mediated Pauson—Khand [2 + 2 + 1] Carbocyclization.
2015
Studies describe the total synthesis of (+)-ileabethoxazole (1) using a Stille cross-coupling reaction of propargylic stannanes with 5-iodo-1,3-oxazoles to produce 1,1-disubstituted allenes (11). An iron-mediated [2 + 2 + 1] carbocyclization yields a novel cyclopentenone for elaboration to 1. Site-selective palladium insertion reactions allow for regiocontrolled substitutions of the heterocycle. Asymmetric copper hydride reductions are examined, and strategies for the formation of the central aromatic ring are discussed.
