Stereoselective aldol additions of titanium enolates of N-acetyl-4-isopropyl-thiazolidinethione
Hodge, Mathis B.,Olivo, Horacio F.
, p. 9397 - 9403 (2004)
The addition of chlorotitanium enolates of N-acetyl isopropyl thiazolidine-2-thione to aldehydes was investigated. The stereoselectivity of the aldol products was controlled by the number of equivalents of base added. The syn aldol product was obtained pr

Brevetoxin A is a decacyclic ladder toxin that possesses 5-, 6-, 7-, 8-, and 9-membered oxacycles, as well as 22 tetrahedral stereocenters. Herein, we describe a unified approach to the B, E, G, and J rings based upon a ring-closing metathesis strategy from the corresponding dienes. The enolate technologies developed in our laboratory allowed access to the precursor acyclic dienes for the B, E, and G medium-ring ethers. The strategies developed for the syntheses of these four monocycles ultimately provided multigram quantities of each of the rings, supporting our efforts toward the completion of a convergent synthesis of brevetoxin A.
Asymmetric acetate aldol reactions in connection with an enantioselective total synthesis of macrolactin A
Gonzalez, Angel,Aiguade, Josep,Urpi, Felix,Vilarrasa, Jaume
, p. 8949 - 8952 (2007/10/03)
Asymmetric aldol-like reactions of cinnamaldehyde, dienal 3 (fragment C7-C12 of macrolactin A), and dienal 4 (fragment C15-C24) with (i) chiral acetylthiazolidinethione-derived enolates, (ii) chiral boron enolates, and (iii) silyl enolates in the presence of chiral titanium-2,2'-dinaphthol complexes are compared. Use of the thiazolidinethiode auxiliary and TiCl4 shows practical advantages; e.g., C5-C12 fragment 7 has been isolated enantiomerically pure in 74% yield. Copyright (C) 1996 Elsevier Science Ltd.
