Stereocontrolled Synthesis of Difunctionalized Azetidinones and β2, 3-Amino Acid Derivatives from Cyclodienes by Ring-Opening and Cross-Metathesis Reactions

Because of their biological relevance, cyclic β-amino acids have generated increasing interest and had significant impact in drug research over the past two decades. Their preparation and further functionalization towards new types of molecular entities have received large interest in synthetic and medicinal chemistry. Various types of metathesis reactions, such as ring-opening (ROM), ring-closing (RCM), or cross metathesis (CM) are used widely for access to either alicyclic β-amino acids or other densely functionalized derivatives of this group of compounds. This account intends to provide an insight into the most relevant synthetic routes to this class of derivatives with the application of metathesis reactions. The review focuses on the presentation of selective and stereocontrolled methodologies in view of versatility, robustness, limitations and efficiency.1 Introduction2 Synthesis and Transformation of Cyclic β-Amino Acids through Metathesis Reactions2.1 Synthesis of Five- and Six-Membered Cyclic β-Amino Acids by Ring-Closing Metathesis2.2 Synthesis of Five- and Six-Membered Cyclic β-Amino Acids by Cross Metathesis2.3 Synthesis of β-Amino Acids with Larger Ring Systems by Ring- Closing Metathesis2.4 Synthesis of β-Amino Acids with Condensed Ring Systems by Ring-Rearrangement Metathesis2.5 Stereocontrolled One-Step Synthesis of Functionalized Cispentacin and Transpentacin Derivatives2.5.1 Stereocontrolled Synthesis of Functionalized Cispentacin and Transpentacin Derivatives through Ring-Opening Metathesis of Norbornene β-Amino Acid Derivatives2.5.2 Stereocontrolled Synthesis of Functionalized Azetidinones and β-Amino Acid Derivatives from Condensed Ring β-Lactams by Ring-Opening Metathesis2.5.3 Carbon–Carbon Double Bond Functionalization of β-Amino Acid Derivatives and β-Lactams with α,β-Unsaturated Carbonyl Compounds through Cross Metathesis2.5.4 Synthesis of Functionalized β-Amino Acid Derivatives and β-Lactams through Chemoselective Cross Metathesis3 Conclusions and Outlook

AbstractThis Account gives an insight into the selective functionalization of some readily available commercial cyclodienes across simple chemical transformations into functionalized small-molecular scaffolds. The syntheses involved selective cycloadditions, followed by ring-opening metathesis (ROM) of the resulting azetidin-2-one derivatives or isoxazoline frameworks and selective cross metathesis (CM) by discrimination of the C=C bonds on the alkenylated heterocycles. The CM protocols have been described when investigated under various conditions with the purpose on exploring chemodifferentiation of the olefin bonds and a study on the access of the corresponding functionalized β-lactam or isoxazoline derivatives is presented. Due to the expanding importance of organofluorine chemistry in drug research as well as of the high biological potential of β-lactam derivatives several illustrative examples to the access of some fluorine-containing molecular entities is also presented in this synopsis.1 Introduction2 Ring C=C Bond Functionalization of Some Cycloalkene β-Amino Acid Derivatives across Chlorosulfonyl Isocyanate Cycloaddition3 Ring C=C Bond Functionalization of Some Cycloalkene β-Amino Acid Derivatives across Nitrile Oxide Cycloaddition4 Ring C=C Bond Functionalization of Some Cycloalkene β-Amino Acid Derivatives across Metathesis5 Functionalization of sSome Cyclodienes across Nitrile Oxide Cycloaddition6 Selective Synthesis of Functionalized Alicycles across Ring-Opening Metathesis7 Selective Synthesis of Functionalized Alicycles through Cross Metathesis8 Summary and Outlook9 List of Abbreviations
