Wolff rearrangement amide synthesis

Scheme 10.14 gives some other examples of Wolff rearrangement reactions. Entries 1 and 2 are reactions carried out under the classical silver ion catalysis conditions. Entry 3 is an example of a thermolysis. Entries 4 to 7 are ring contractions done under photolytic conditions. Entry 8, done using a silver catalyst, was a step in the synthesis of macbecin, an antitumor antibiotic. Entry 9, a step in the synthesis of a drug candidate, illustrates direct formation of an amide by trapping the ketene intermediate with an amine. [Pg.944]

Since ketene is probably the intermediate of the Wolff rearrangement, the choice of solvents dictates the nature of the product. Indeed, water gave carboxylic acids, whereas alcohols or amines led to esters and amides, respectively. These combinations have been applied to the synthesis of more complex molecules. For example, the total synthesis of carbonolide B, a 16-membered macrolide antibiotic, relied on Amdt-Eistert homologation. In this sequence, a protected furanuronic acid was transformed to the corresponding a-diazoketone, which was then converted to its homologous carboxylic ester. The reaction was achieved using catalytic amounts of silver benzoate and excess of triethylamine in methanol (Scheme 3.4).11... [Pg.85]

The method has been widely used and extended to the preparation of A-9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (Fmoc)-o -amino aldehydes in good yields [83,92-94]. Fmoc- and Boc-/3-amino aldehydes, which are key intermediates in the synthesis of carba [16,17] and carbaza peptides [33] (see later), are also prepared in good yield from the corresponding hydroxamates [95]. In this case, the Weinreb amide can be obtained in high yield by direct Wolff rearrangement of a diazomethylketone with A,0-dimethylhydroxylamine. [Pg.652]

In the initial applications of Diels-Alder chemistry to yohimbine alkaloid synthesis, the Kametani (24-27) and Takano (28) groups have both examined reactions between furan derivatives and maleic anhydride. In the initial investigations of Kametani and his coworkers (24) (Scheme 3.10), the Diels-Alder adduct (57) of furan and maleic anhydride underwent bromolactonization to give the tricyclic carboxylic acid 58 (94). This compound has four [C(15), C(16), C(17), and C(18)] of the five contiguous stereocenters of the reserpine E-ring in place. Acid 58 was converted to diazoketone 59 which underwent Wolff rearrangement followed by tryptamine trapping to afford amide 60. Bischler-Napieralski cyclization of this substance afforded the tetracyclic... [Pg.210]
