Research Abstract |
Tertiary allylic alcohols are incorporated in the structures of a variety of natural products and commercially important pharmaceuticals. Equally significant is the latent faculties of tertiary allylic alcohols as versatile synthetic intermediates. Only a few methods, however, are available for preparation of them in a chiral form and these methods so far developed suffer from some disadvantages such as low optical purity and/or lack of generality. We have now succeeded in developing practical and general synthetic method of tertiary allylic alcohols. Thus, the reaction of beta-trimethylsilyl-alpha, beta-epoxyketones, readily prepared in a chiral form by using the Sharpless kinetic resolution of gamma-trimethytsilyl secondary allylic alcohols as a key reaction, with Grignard reagents proceeds highly diastereoselectively to afford optically active gamma-trimethylsilyl-beta, gamma-epoxy tertiary alcohols. gamma-Trimethylsilyl-beta, gamma-epoxy tertiary alcohols reacts with nucleophils affords the corresponding tertiary allylic alcohols via regionspecific ring opening followed by the Peterson olefination reaction. The application of the tertiary allylic alcohols thus obtained to the synthesis of prostaglandin derivative, Arbaprostil was carried out.
