Adenosine is not active orally, but adrninistered as an iv bolus dmg adenosine rapidly eliminates supraventricular tachycardias within 1—2 min after dosing. The dmg slows conduction through the AV node. Adenosine is rapidly removed from the circulation by uptake into red blood ceUs and vascular endothehal ceUs. Thus the plasma half-life is less than 10 s. Adenosine is rapidly metabolized to inosine or adenosine monophosphate and becomes part of the body pool for synthesis of adenosine-triphosphate. 

Ex-Target Tree. (EXTGT Tree) A branching tree structure formed by retrosynthetic analysis of a target molecule (treetop). Such trees grow out from a target and consist of nodes which correspond to the structures of intermediates along a pathway of synthesis. 

Node and co-workers have found that the Diels-Alder reaction of nitroalkenes v/ith 1-methoxy-3-trimethylsilyloxy-l,3-butadiene (Danishefsky s dienesi exhibit abnormal exo-se-lecdvity Electrostadc repulsion between the nitro and the silyloxy group of the diene induces this abnormal exc-selecdvity (Tq 8 10 This selecdve reacdon has been used for the asymmetric synthesis of various naniral products as shovm in Scheme 8 6... 

Node and coworkers have used this aromadzadon strategy for the synthesis of (-) aphanor-phineThe Diels-Alder reacdon of chiral nitroalkene, prepared by the asymmecdc nitrooleft-nation reacdon of ct-methyl-o-valerolactone, with the Danishefsky s diene followed by aromadzadon is used as a key step for this total synthesis, as shown in Scheme 8 6... 

Node and Fuji have developed a new chiral synthesis of various alkaloids using chiral nitroalkene, fS -( - -3-methyl-3-( 3 -nitrovinyl -o-valerolactone Scheme 8 11 shows a total synthesis of f-i-physosdgmine, a principM alkriloid of the CMabar bean The key nitroalkene is prepared by asymmetric nitroolefinadon of ct-methyl-o-lactone using a chirM enamine fsee... 

A divergent synthesis of tropane alkaloid ferruginine was reported by Node and coworkers [59]. The P-ketoester intermediate was prepared by a novel PLE-catalyzed asymmetric dealkoxycarbonylation (hydrolysis followed by a decarboxylation) of a symmetric tropinone-type diester (Figure 6.12). Dimethyl sulfoxide was added to the phosphate buffer pH 8 (1 9) to reduce the activity of PLE and prevent over-deal-koxycarbonylation leading to tropinone. 

Certain other sulfur-containing reagents also cleave methyl and other ethers see Hanes-sian, S. Guindon, Y. Tetrahedron Lett., 1980, 21, 2305 Williard, P.G. Fryhle, C.B. Tetrahedron Lett., 1980, 21, 3731 Node, M. Nishide, K. Fuji, K. Fujita, E. J. Org. Chem., 1980, 45, 4275. For cleavage with selenium-containing reagents, see Evers, M. Christiaens, L. Tetrahedron Lett., 1983, 24, 377. For a review of the cleavage of aryl alkyl ethers, see Tiecco, M. Synthesis, 1988, 749. 

Note that a small synthesis tree with the numbers "1" and "2" has appeared. We will call each of the components of the tree a node. Click on node 2. In the active molecule window the ketone which the program has previously suggested appears. "Free.2 level 2" can now be read in the active molecule window, while the name of the disconnection appears in the lower part. By clicking on any node in the tree you will be able to see the precursor represented in this node.
