A systematic survey of IMDA reactions of 4-[tris(2-methylethyl)silyl]oxy-2H-thiopyran derivatives with potential dienophiles tethered at the C-2, C-3, C-5, and C-6 positions is presented. Cycloaddition was not observed with a C3 or C4 tether and an unactivated terminal olefin as dienophile. IMDA adducts could be obtained when dienophiles activated by a carbomethoxy group were employed. Compounds having the activated dienophile attached via a C3 tether to C-2 of the 2H-thiopyran gave adducts with high stereoselectivity. Substrates having the dienophile attached to C-3 with a C3 or C4 tether cyclized readily. With an (E)-enoate as the dienophile, the stereoselectivity was poor (endo:exo = 1.1–2.5:1) and essentially independent of reaction conditions (i.e., thermal vs. Lewis acid mediated). With the(Z)-enoate, a 7:1 mixture of endo:exo IMDA adducts was obtained under thermal conditions; with Lewis acid catalysis, isomerization of the dienophile was competitive with cycloaddition. Type II IMDA adducts were not observed with C-5 tethered substrates. Compounds having the dienophile attached to C-6 via a C3 or a five-atom tether also failed to give IMDA adducts. No evidence for isomerization of the 2H-thiopyran dienes by [1,5] sigmatropic rearrangement was observed. The endo adducts from IMDA reactions of the C-3 tethered substrates can be desulfurized to obtain synthetically useful trans-fused hydrindans and decalins with angular methyl groups. Key words: intramolecular Diels–Alder, 2H-thiopyran, cis-substituted 1,3-diene surrogate, trans-octahydro-3a-methyl-1H-indene derivatives, trans-decahydro-4a-methylnapthalene derivatives.

AbstractDiels–Alder reactions of 2-pyrones with alkenes can provide highly functionalized [2,2,2]-bicyclic lactones under mild reaction conditions. Synthetic utilizations of these reactions have been well demonstrated in natural-product synthesis. Although several catalytic asymmetric strategies have been realized, current research in this area is still largely underdeveloped. Recent advances in enantioselective inverse-electron-demand Diels–Alder reactions with Lewis acid catalysis are reviewed.1 Introduction2 State of the Art of Enantioselective Diels–Alder Reactions of 2-Pyrones by Lewis Acid Catalysis3 Enantioselective Synthesis of Arene cis-Dihydrodiols by Diels–­Alder/Retro-Diels–Alder Reactions of 2-Pyrones4 Enantioselective Synthesis of cis-Decalin Derivatives by Diels–­Alder Reactions of 2-Pyrones5 Conclusions

AbstractThe development of the intramolecular Diels–Alder cycloaddition­ of azole heterocycles, i.e. oxazoles (IMDAO), imidazoles (IMDAI), and thiazoles (IMDAT), has had a significant impact on the efficient preparation of heterocyclic intermediates and natural products. In particular, highly efficient and versatile IMDAO reactions have been utilized as a key step in several synthetic schemes to provide alkaloids and terpenoid target molecules. More limited studies have been performed on IMDAI and IMDAT cycloadditions. Some drawbacks, such as the occasionally­ challenging preparation of IMDA precursors, are also highlighted in this review. Perspectives are provided on how IMDAI and IMDAT­ transformations can be further expanded for target-directed syntheses.1 Introduction2 Oxazoles2.1 IMDAO Approaches to Furanosesquiterpenes and Furanosteroids2.1.1 Syntheses of Highly Oxygenated Sesquiterpenes2.1.2 Syntheses of (±)-Gnididione and (±)-Isognididione2.1.3 Synthesis of (±)-Stemoamide2.1.4 Synthesis of (±)-Paniculide A2.1.5 Syntheses of (+)- and (–)-Norsecurinine2.1.6 Synthesis of Evodone2.1.7 Syntheses of (±)-Ligularone and (±)-Petasalbine2.1.8 Syntheses of Imerubrine, Isoimerubrine, and Grandirubrine2.1.9 Syntheses of Furanosteroids2.1.10 Syntheses of Substituted Indolines and Tetrahydroquinolines2.2 IMDAO Approaches to Pyridines: the Kondrat’eva Reaction2.2.1 Syntheses of Suaveoline and Norsuaveoline2.2.2 Synthesis of Eupolauramine2.2.3 Syntheses of (–)-Plectrodorine and (+)-Oxerine2.2.4 Synthesis of Amphimedine2.2.5 Synthetic Approach to the Western Segment of Haplophytine2.2.6 Synthesis of Marinoquinoline A2.2.6.1 IMDAO Approach to Marinoquinoline A2.2.6.2 Scope of Allenyl IMDAO Cycloaddition2.3 Lewis Acid Catalysis in IMDAO Reactions2.3.1 Effects of Europium Catalysts on IMDAO Reactions2.3.2 Effects of Copper Catalysts on IMDAO Reactions3 Imidazoles 4 Thiazoles4.1 Syntheses of Menthane and Eremophilane4.2 Further Comments on the Intramolecular Cycloadditions of Thiocarbonyl Ylides5 Conclusions and Outlook

The extension of our strategies for the construction of cyclic molecules containing variably substituted bicyclo[5.3.1]undecenones (AB taxane ring systems) for the synthesis of the tricyclo[9.3.1.03,8]pentadecenone (ABC taxane ring system) and bicyclo[2.2.2]octanones are described. These routes employ a multi-component coupling protocol that employs sequential magnesium-mediated carbometallation of allyl-substituted propargyl alcohols followed by diastereoselective Lewis acid catalyzed intramolecular Diels–Alder reactions (IMDA). Subsequent ring-closing metathesis (RCM) afforded the ABC taxane core structure. Enone accelerated [3,3] sigmatropic rearrangements (Cope rearrangements) generated the bicyclo[2.2.2]octanone nucleus. In the presence of a Lewis acid, the dienophile precursor underwent a tandem reaction via the adduct directly to the bicyclo[2.2.2]octanones. This is the first example of a novel enone accelerated carbocycle Cope rearrangement and provides direct access to bicyclo[2.2.2]octanones by a new route that compliments the traditional cyclohexadiene cycloaddition approach. Key words: magnesium chelate, Lewis acid, taxanes, Diels–Alder, sigmatropic rearrangement, oxy-Cope, ring-closing metathesis, bicyclo[2.2.2]octanone.
