- Macrolides from the scent glands of the tropical butterflies Heliconius cydno and Heliconius pachinus
-
The four major components present in scent gland extracts of the male Costa Rica longwing butterflies Heliconius cydno and Heliconius pachinus were identified as 12- and 14-membered macrolides containing a C18-carbon skeleton. By use of micro-reactions and spectrometric examinations, structural proposals were made and subsequently proven by synthesis, using ring-closing-metathesis as the key steps. These macrolides, (9Z,11E,13S)- octadeca-9,11-dien-13-olide (5, S-coriolide), (9Z,11E,13S,15Z)-octadeca-9,11,15- trien-13-olide (6), (9Z,13S)-octadec-9-en-13-olide (13), and (9Z,11S)-octadec-9-en-11-olide (25), are biosynthetically obviously derived from oleic, linoleic, and linolenic acids. Their absolute configurations were determined by gas chromatographic investigations on chiral phases, showing all to possess (S)-configuration. The Royal Society of Chemistry.

- Functionalized Diorganozinc Compounds: Key Reagents for the Synthesis of Enantiomerically Pure 2,5-Disubstituted cis- and trans-Tetrahydrofurans
-
1,4-Diol derivatives 4a-i were synthesized stereoselectively by either reagent- or catalyst-controlled routes using the addition of functionalized diorganozinc reagents to aldehydes.The stereoselectivities along the reagent-controlled synthetic path were in the range between 80:20 and 95:5.The stereoselectivities along the catalyst route exceeded 95:5.The 1,4-diol derivatives 4 thus obtained were transformed into enantiomerically pure cis- and trans-2,5-disubstituted tetrahydrofurans (16-20) by means of an intramolecular Williamson reaction. - Keywords: Synthesis, stereoselective / Catalysis / Tetrahydrofurans / Dialkylzinc reagents
