Methylenomycin 2-butyne acylation

A recent synthesis of methylenomycin-B (74), based on these observations, features an allylation/car-bonylation (69) - (70) followed by a C-1—C-2 bond/nickel acyl insertion (70) -> (71) and a final meth-oxycarbonylation (71) -> (72). Thus 2-butyn-l-ol (1,2-dialkylacetylenes are inert) afforded in one synthetic operation a 1 4 mixture (78%) of regioisomeric cyclopentenones (72) and (73) which was converted to the antibiotic (74) (Scheme 16). ...
