ALL–CARBON ENE–TYPE CYCLIZATIONS FROM CYCLOHEXADIENETRICARBONYLIRON DERIVATIVES

Abstract Details

2016, Doctor of Philosophy, Case Western Reserve University, Chemistry.
Diene-tricarbonyliron chemistry has found great utility in organic synthesis. One area of particular interest utilizes an iron-promoted ene-type reaction to facilitate spirocyclization or tandem double-cyclization when a pendant alkene or diene is available, respectively. Previously in the Pearson lab, spirocyclizations as well as double-cyclizations have been reported starting from compounds containing a heteroatom (O, S, NPh) within the tethered side chain. The work herein focuses on the preparation of cyclization products containing an all-carbon backbone, such as 1. The intriguing aspect of this fundamental research is that synthesis of potential natural product-derivatives may be achieved, in particular those of the angular triquinane class. Investigations of the generality of stereocontrol during Grignard additions used in the formation of 2 will also be described.
