A straightforward chiral pool synthesis for the first fluorinated calystegin is described. Key steps of this synthesis include an ultrasound-assisted Zn-mediated tandem ring opening reaction followed by a Grubbs’ catalyst-mediated ring closure metathesis reaction. The target compound is a selective and competitive inhibitor for a β -glycosidase.

AbstractA total synthesis of resolvin T4 was achieved by connecting three intermediates by Wittig reactions. The enal in the C1–C10 part was constructed through reduction of a propargylic alcohol with Red-Al followed by oxidation. The enal moiety in the C11–C16 part was synthesized by a ring-opening reaction of a silyl epoxide followed by a Peterson elimination. The chiral centers at C7 and C13 were constructed by ruthenium-catalyzed asymmetric transfer hydrogenation.

The atroposelective ring opening of lactone-bridged biaryl systems is the key step in the total synthesis of a series of axially chiral biaryl natural products and useful reagents or catalysts for asymmetric synthesis. For a more in-depth understanding of the mechanism and stereochemical course of this remarkable cleavage reaction, a seven-membered ether analog of such useful biaryl lactones has been investigated structurally, both experimentally, by X-ray diffraction analysis, and by ab initio calculations (B3LYP/6-31G*). In a nearly perfect agreement, both methods show that these seven-membered bridged biaryls do not constitute helicene-like distorted molecules, but ‘true’ biaryls, whose sufficiently long lactone or ether bridge allows the two aromatic systems to adopt a large dihedral angle to each other, without any noticeable deviation from planarity for the two aromatic systems - in contrast to related six-membered analogs, which can rather be considered as helicene-like twisted polycyclic systems.

Hydroxylation and epoxidation, followed by the oxirane ring opening, of methyl 2,3-dideoxy-α and β-DL-pent-2-enopyranosides, readily available by the transformation of furfuryl alcohol, afforded the title compounds. Steric course of hydroxylation and epoxidation reactions were examined. The p.m.r. data of methyl 4-O-acetyl-2,3-anhydro-DL-pentopyranosides are reported.
