Acid mediated deprotection of N-isopropyl tertiary amides

, p. 1280 - 1282 (2015)
Tertiary amides containing an N-isopropyl group were selectively deprotected by heating in methanesulfonic acid. The N-isopropyl group was removed selectively in the presence of other groups on the amide nitrogen such as methyl, primary alkyl, or aryl. The putative isopropyl cation was trapped by Friedel-Crafts alkylation of anisole when the latter was included as a co-solvent.

A practical and efficient approach for the total synthesis of arucadiol and 1-oxomiltirone is reported. The key step which involves an intramolecular [4+2] cycloaddition catalyzed by gold(III) bromide or copper(II) triflate leads to the formation of 6-6-6-fused aromatic abietane core.

Intramolecular addition of an O-methyl C(sp3)?H bond across a carbon-carbon double bond occurs in the iridium-catalyzed reaction of methyl 2-(propen-2-yl)phenyl ethers. The Ir/(S)-DTBM-SEGPHOS catalyst promotes the reaction efficiently in toluene at 110–135 °C to afford 3,3-dimethyl-2,3-dihydrobenzofurans. Enantioselective C(sp3)?H addition is achieved in the reaction of methyl 2-(1-siloxyethenyl)phenyl ethers, affording enantioenriched 3-hydroxy-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran derivatives with up to 96% ee. (Figure presented.).
Enantioselective, Lewis Base-Catalyzed Sulfenocyclization of Polyenes

A sulfenium-ion-initiated, catalytic, enantioselective polyene cyclization is described. Homogeranylarenes and ortho-geranylphenols undergo polycyclization in good yield, diastereoselectivity, and enantioselectivity. The stereodetermining step is the generation of an enantiomerically enriched thiiranium ion from a terminal alkene and a sulfenylating agent in the presence of a chiral Lewis basic catalyst. The use of hexafluoroisopropyl alcohol as the solvent is crucial to obtain good yields. The thioether moiety resulting from the reaction can be subsequently transformed into diverse oxygen and carbon functionality postcyclization. The utility of this method is demonstrated by the enantioselective syntheses of (+)-ferruginol and (+)-hinokiol.
