Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The synthetic studies on Tubiferal A, Azadirachtin, and Phorbol were carried out on the basis of new reactions utilizing alkanenitriles. The unique properties of a cyano group, which is sterically compact and linear in shape, were found to be advantageous for forming carbocyclic compounds possessing hindered carbon-carbon bonds. For example, construction of the 5-7 bicyclic skeleton of Phorbol was achieved by the divinylcyclopropane rearrangement reaction of a cyanocyclopropane derivative.
