Example 37A, 37D, 47B, (2008/06/13)
Multiple novel reaction schemes, novel process steps and novel intermediates are provided for the synthesis of epoxymexrenone and other compounds of Formula I wherein:-A-A- represents the group -CHR4-CHR5- or -CR4=CR5- R3, R4 and R5 are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, halo, hydroxy, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy, hydroxyalkyl, alkoxyalkyl, hydroxycarbonyl, cyano, varyloxy;R1 represents an alpha-oriented lower alkoxycarbonyl or hydroxyalkyl radical;-B-B- represents the group -CHR6-CHR7- or an alpha- or beta- oriented group: where R6 and R7 are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, halo, lower alkoxy, acyl, hydroxyalkyl, alkoxyalkyl, hydroxycarbonyl, alkyl, alkoxycarbonyl, acyloxyalkyl, cyano and aryloxy; andR8 and R9 are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, hydroxy, halo, lower alkoxy, acyl, hydroxyalkyl, alkoxyalkyl, hydroxycarbonyl, alkyl, alkoxycarbonyl, acyloxyalkyl, cyano and aryloxy, or R8 and R9 together comprise a carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring structure, or R8 or R9 together with R6 or R7 comprise a carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring structure fused to the pentacyclic D ring.
