Carbohydrate carbocyclization by a zinc-mediated tandem reaction and ring-closing enyne metathesis

Methyl 5-deoxy-5-iodo-pentofuranosides are reductively ring-opened and propargylated in a tandem fashion in the presence of zinc. The 1,7-enynes thus obtained are subjected to ring-closing enyne metathesis with catalyst B to produce functionalized 1-vinyl cyclohexenes. By adding BnNH2 to the tandem reaction, an amino group can be introduced in the 1,7-enyne products. Addition of 2-TMS-ethynylcerium(III) chloride after the reductive ring-opening produces the corresponding 1,6-enynes. Further annulation of the product 1,3-dienes can be achieved through a Diels - Alder reaction with good control of stereochemistry. These procedures constitute efficient methods for rapid carbocyclization and annulation of carbohydrates to produce a variety of functionalized five- and six-membered ring systems.
Carbohydrate carbocyclization by a novel zinc-mediated domino reaction and ring-closing olefin metathesis

A general method for carbocyclization of carbohydrates is described using two consecutive organometallic transformations: a novel zinc-mediated domino reaction to give functionalized dienes followed by ring-closing olefin metathesis. In the first reaction
