New strategy for production of primary alcohols from aliphatic olefins by tandem cross-metathesis/hydrogenation

Primary alcohols are widely used in industry as solvents and precursors of detergents. The classic methods for hydration of terminal alkenes always produce the Markovnikov products. Herein, we reported a reliable approach to produce primary alcohols from terminal alkenes combining with biomass-derived allyl alcohol by tandem cross-metathesis/hydrogenation. A series of primary alcohol with different chain lengths was successfully produced in high yields (ca. 90percent). Computational studies revealed that self-metathesis and hydrogenation of substrates are accessible but much slower than cross-metathesis. This new methodology represents a unique alternative to primary alcohols from terminal alkenes.

Synthesis of 6-Hydroxysphingosine and α-Hydroxy Ceramide Using a Cross-Metathesis Strategy

(Chemical Equation Presented) In this paper, a new synthetic route toward 6-hydroxysphingosine and α-hydroxy ceramide is described. The synthesis employs a cross-metathesis to unite a sphingosine head allylic alcohol with a long-chain fatty acid alkene that also bears an allylic alcohol group. To allow for a productive CM coupling, the sphingosine head allylic alcohol was protected with a cyclic carbonate moiety and a reactive CM catalyst system, consisting of Grubbs II catalyst and CuI, was employed.

De novo asymmetric syntheses of muricatacin and its analogues via dihydroxylation of dienoates

A short and highly efficient route to both enantiomers of muricatacin as well as the C-5-epimer has been developed. The key to the overall transformation is the highly regio- and enantioselective Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation of an (E,Z)-dienoate. The highly efficient stereoselective synthesis prepares (-)-muricatacin in seven steps and 66% overall yield.
