Reaction of osmic acid with 6,8-dioxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-3-ene (1) gave 1,6-anhydro-4-deoxy-β-DL-ribo-hexopyranose (3, R = H) which was hydrolyzed to 4-deoxy-α,β-DL-ribo-hexopyranose (4, R = H). Conversion of 1 to 1,6:2,3-dianhydro-4-deoxy-β-DL-ribo-hexopyranose (5) followed by treatment of 5 with lithium aluminum hydride, gave 1,6-anhydro-3,4-dideoxy-β-DL-erythro-hexopyranose (6, R = H), and this in turn was hydrolyzed to 3,4-dideoxy-α,β-DL-erythro-hexopyranose (7, R = H).Reaction of osmic acid with 6,8-dioxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-2-ene (2) gave 1,6-anhydro-2-deoxy-β-DL-riob-hexopyranose (8, R = H), which was hydrolyzed to 2-deoxy-DL-riob-hexopyranose (9, R = H). Compound 2 was converted to 1,6:3,4-dianhydro-2-deoxy-β-DL-ribo-hexopyranose (10) which was hydrolyzed by aqueous base to 1,6-anhydro-2-deoxy-β-DL-arabino-hexopyranose (12) and this in turn was hydrolyzed by dilute hydrochloric acid to 2-deoxy-α,β-DL-arabino-hexopyranose (2-deoxy-DL-glucose) (13). The reaction of 10 with lithium aluminum hydride gave 1,6-anhydro-2,3-dideoxy-β-DL-erythro-hexopy-ranose (14).Yields were good to excellent in each of the above reactions.

Isorhyncophylline, the isomer into which rhyncophylline is convertible, has been found to occur in nature. Both bases are interconvertible. Isorhyncophylline on hydrolysis with dilute hydrochloric acid is converted to an aldehyde reducible to isorhyncophyllol. When the aldehyde is reduced in the Wolff–Kishner reaction, it is also isomerized and the product is isorhyncophyllane. This reduction product is oxidized by mercuric acetate to a neutral dilactam which still contains the oxindole carbonyl and further contains a new lactam carbonyl present in a six-membered ring. Reduction of the dilactam with lithium aluminum hydride gave a product having the spectroscopic properties of an indole. This confirms the assumption previously made that in rhyncophylline, ring C is five-membered. The isomerization of rhyncophylline, mitraphylline, and formosanine is described. Formosanine has been shown to be identical with uncarine-B and thus uncarine-A is the iso base derivable from formosanine.

Hydrolysis Of

It is shown that hydrolysis of rhyncophylline with dilute hydrochloric acid gives rhyncophyllal (C19H24O2N2), which contains an aldehyde group but no longer contains the methoxyl, the isolated double bond, and the carbomethoxy group originally present in the alkaloid. Rhyncophyllal is reduced by sodium borohydride to the corresponding alcohol, rhyncophyllal, and this is further reduced by lithium aluminum hydride to dihydrodesoxy-rhyncophyllal (C19H28ON2), which shows the properties of an aromatic amine. Reduction of rhyncophyllal by the Wolff-Kishner reaction gives rhyncophyllane (C19H26ON2), which, when dehydrogenated over palladium–charcoal, yields 3,4-diethylpyridine. Direct dehydrogenation of rhyncophyllal produces β-collidine. On the basis of these as well as previously described results a total structure for rhyncophylline is derived.

The reaction of butyllithium in ether with 1,6:2,3-dianhydro-4-deoxy-β-DL-ribo-hexopyranose (1), a substance obtained in five steps from acrolein dimer, gave 1,6-anhydro-3,4-dideoxy-β-DL-erythro-hex-3-enopyranose (2). The compound 1,6:3,4-dianhydro-β-DL-allo-hexopyranose (3), obtained from 2, was converted by reaction with aqueous barium hydroxide followed by hydrolysis of the product, to DL-glucose 5. Treatment of 3 with sodium methoxide in methanol followed by acid hydrolysis of the 1,6-anhydro intermediate 6, gave 3-O-methyl-DL-glucose (7). The same intermediate, 6, along with the methyl glycoside 8, could be obtained by the acid-catalyzed reaction of 3 with methanol. Lithium aluminum hydride reacted with 3 to form 1,6-anhydro-3-deoxy-β-DL-ribo-hexopyranose (9), which was hydrolyzed readily to 3-deoxy-DL-ribo-hexopyranose (10).Yields were excellent throughout. All products obtained from the oxirane 3 were those resulting only from trans diaxial opening of the oxirane ring.

Stereoselective Syntheses

Efficient, stereoselective syntheses of the tricyclic sesquiterpenoids (+)-copacamphor (3), (+)-copaborneol (4), (+)-copaisoborneol (5), (−)-ylangocamphor (6), (−)-ylangoborneol (7), and (−)-ylangoisoborneol (8) are described. Conversion of the keto acetate 9 (previously synthesized from the dione 1) into the keto tosylate 17 was accomplished via an eight-step sequence. Intramolecular alkylation of 17 afforded, in high yield, (+)-copacamphor (3), which had previously been converted into the corresponding alcohols 4 and 5 by Kolbe-Haugwitz and Westfelt. Alkylation of the enolate anion of the bicyclic dione 2 with 2-bromopropane in hexamethylphosphoramide gave mainly the O-alkylation product 19. Conversion of 19 into the keto mesylate 29 was carried out in 5 synthetic steps. Intramolecular alkylation of 29 afforded (−)-ylangocamphor (6). Reduction of the latter with calcium in liquid ammonia gave (−)-ylangoborneol (7), while reduction with lithium aluminum hydride yielded (−)-ylangoisoborneol (8).

Treatment of ethyl 2-pentynoate (14) with lithium (phenylthio)(tri-n-butylstannyl)cuprate (12) afforded, in 76% yield, ethyl (Z)-3-(tri-n-butylstannyl)-2-pentenoate (15). On the other hand, when compound 14 was allowed to react with the (tri-n-butylstannyl)copper reagent 13, ethyl (E)-3-(tri-n-butylstannyl)-2-pentenoate (21) was produced in 83% yield. Reduction (diisobutylaluminum hydride, ether) of the esters 15 and 21 gave the alcohols 16 and 22, respectively. Treatment of each of the latter substances with pyridine – sulfur trioxide complex, followed by further reduction of the resultant intermediates with lithium aluminum hydride, provided the geometrically isomeric alkenylstannanes 17 and 23. Conjugate addition of (E)-3-lithio-2-pentene (18) (formed by transmetalation of 17) to compound 19 produced the olefinic trimethylhydrazide 20, which was converted (diisobutylaluminum hydride, ether; pyridinium dichromate, dimethylformamide) into the corresponding carboxylic acid 2. Subjection of compound 23 to a sequence of reactions identical with that used for the conversion of 17 into 2 provided the isomeric acid 3, which was identical (infrared, 1H nmr) with the natural acid derived from triophamine (1). Conversion of 3 into the p-nitrophenyl ester 26, followed by condensation of the latter substance with guanidine, afforded a chromatographically separable mixture of (±)-triophamine (1) and the corresponding diastereomer.
