A highly diastereoselective desymmetrization of p-quinamines via regioselective ring opening of epoxides and aziridines under mild conditions has been developed. A chairlike six-membered transition state with minimized 1,3-diaxial interactions explains the relative stereoselectivity of the cyclization reaction. This transition-metal free [3 + 3] annulation reaction provides rapid access to fused bicyclic morpholines and piperazines with a tetrasubstituted carbon center in high yields. In addition, it also allows the synthesis of enantioenriched products by using easily accessible chiral nonracemic epoxides and aziridines.

Straightforward methods for the efficient, systematic preparation of libraries of the title compound classes have been evaluated. A general and efficient modular route to dihydroxyacetone monoethers was developed based on trityl glycidol, which, through epoxide opening, oxidation, and deprotection, provided variously alkylated ethers by three routine operations in good overall yields (eight examples, 24-59 %). The preparation of structurally related 1-hydroxyalkanones depends on the availability of the most economic starting materials and on their physicochemical properties. Thus, the most practical one-step approaches consisted of the sec-selective oxidation of short-chain 1,2-diols (≤ C6) using NaOCl, and the direct ketohydroxylation of 1-alkenes (≥ C6) using buffered stoichiometric KMnO4 or catalytic RuO4 with reoxidation by oxone, for which mostly good overall yields were achieved on a multigram scale (nine examples, 15-78 %).

(Chemical Equation Presented) Solandelactones A, B, E, and F were synthesized using Nozaki-Hiyama-Kishi coupling of iododiene 13 with aldehydes 14 and 99 obtained by oxidation of alcohols 92 and 94. Key steps in the synthesis of 92 and 94 were (i) a Nagao asymmetric acetate aldol reaction of aldehyde 77 with thionothiazolidine 78 to set in place an alcohol that becomes the (75) lactone center of solandelactones, (ii) a Simmons-Smith cyclopropanation of 80 directed by this alcohol, and (iii) Petasis methylenation of cyclic carbonate 90 in tandem with a Claisen rearrangement that generates the octenalactone portion of solandelactones. Synthesis of solandelactones A, B, E, and F confirmed their gross structure and absolute configuration at C7, 8, 10, and 14 but showed that alcohol configuration at C11 must be reversed in pairs, A/B and E/F, from the previous assignment made to these hydroid metabolites. Thus, solandelactones A and B are correctly represented by 2 and 1, respectively, whereas solandelactones E and F are 6 and 5. A biogenesis of solandelactones is proposed for these C22 oxylipins that parallels a hypothesis put forward previously to explain the origin of C20 cyclopropane-containing algal products.
