Popis: | Herein, we describe the development of a deconstructive strategy for the first asymmetric synthesis of (−)-thebainone A, capitalized on an enantioselective C−C bond activation and a C−O bond cleavage reaction. The Rh-catalyzed asymmetric ‘cut-and-sew’ transformation between sterically hindered trisubstituted alkenes and benzocyclobutenones allows efficient construction of the fused A/B/C rings and the all-carbon quaternary center of the natural product. The newly optimized conditions show a broad substrate scope and excellent enantioselectivity (up to 99.5:0.5 er). Taking advantage of the boron-mediated ether bond cleavage, synthesis of the morphine-alkaloid (−)-thebainone A has been completed with two complementary routes. |
