Sharpless Asymmetric Epoxidation

S-(−)- and R-(+)-frontalin (1,5-dimethyl-6,8-dioxabicyclo[3.2.1]octane) were prepared from (E)-2-methyl-2,6-heptadiene-1-ol utilizing the Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation reaction to induce chirality. The six-step synthetic sequence proceeded in approximately 50% overall yield and was found to be suitable for the preparation of multi-gram quantities of either enantiomer with ≥ 90% ee.

Sharpless Asymmetric Epoxidation

A concise method that is easily amenable for analogue synthesis has been developed to enantioselectively access 4-amino-3-hydroxybenzopyrans from chalcones. Epoxy alcohols were formed from chalcones through a Corey–Bakshi–Shibata reduction of the enone and subsequent Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation of the allylic alcohol. The epoxy alcohols were protected, regioselectively opened with various amines using catalytic europium(III) triflate, and the resulting free alcohols were orthogonally protected. Concomitant deprotection and intramolecular nucleophilic aromatic substitution provided the benzopyran core, which is poised to undergo additional reactions to provide a diverse chemical library with ideal properties for biological evaluation.
