  2. Overview • Introduction • The tandem intramolecular silylformylation-allylsilylation reaction • The tandem aldol-allylation reaction • Application to total synthesis • Summary • Conclusion

  3. Introduction • Interest in polyketide macrolide-derived natural products with the skipped polyol structural motif and the development of efficient stereocontrolled strategies for their synthesis Dolabelide A

  4. Leighton’s rhodium-catalyzed intramolecular Silylformylation of alkenes First strategy -Efforts in olefin carbonylation reactions -Focus on the homoallylic alcohol class of substrates J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1997, 119, 12416-12417

  5. Allylsilanes are well-known aldehyde allylation agents • Is a tandem carbonylation-aldehyde allylation possible? • Potential variants • Dicrotylsilanes • Alkyne substrates 1,3,5-triol J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2000, 122, 8587-8588

  6. Second strategy The tandem aldol-allylation reaction • Potential variants • Crotylsilanes • Enolcrotylsilanes J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2002, 124, 10672-10673

  7. Strain release Lewis acidity • Responsible for spontaneous allylation • Concept first described by Denmark`s group • -Distortion of the tetrahedral geometry imparts a strain energy which is released upon coordination of a Lewis base, narrowing the internal angles to a trigonal-bipyramidal geometry. Internal C-Si-O angle 95o Internal C-Si-O angle 90o Organometallics,1990, 9(12), 3015-3019

  8. The tandem intramolecular silylformylation-allylsilylation reaction NMR of crude 14 confirms no aldehyde

  9. Proposed mechanism of rhodium-catalyzed intramolecular silylformylation

  10. Validation of an intramolecular reaction

  11. -The diastereoselectivity of the allylation is quite high • Achiral substrate provides a useful benchmark • diastereoselectivity (93:7)

  12. Alkyne substrates • Alkynes are also well known substrates for silylformylation • The silicon-substituted carbon is no longer stereogenic -Diastereoselectivity in the allylation would have to derive from the original propargylic stereocenter. -Thus leading to remote 1,5-stereoinduction Angew. Chem. Int. Ed.2001, 40(15), 2915-2917

  13. First Alkyne study 0.1 mol% -Upon tandem formylation-allylation, product was submitted to protodesilylation and the peracetylation. - Major product is the 1,5-anti product, which is opposite to alkene substrates.

  14. Proposed model More highly Strained complex Destabilizing steric interaction between the 2-propyl group and the allyl group. Apical position not possible.

  15. Substrate study Increasing steric size of propargylic substituent * *

  16. A key feature • Both diastereotopic allyl groups can transfer and each lead to a different product diastereomer. • Selective replacement • of either allyl group • with a nontransferable • group would lead to a • stereospecific reaction. 1,5 syn 1,5 anti

  25. Polyketide chains Envisioned the metal (MLn) would bear the desired number of enolate fragments as well as an allyl group. Upon completion of the aldol cascade, intramolecular allylation of the terminal aldehyde would halt the chain propagation. The silicon, constrained in a five-membered ring, possesses Lewis acidity to distort tetrahedral geometry to tbp.

  26. -The strain induced in the silacycle by the 1,2-diol is essential for the reaction. -To expand the scope of the process, cis and trans-crotylsilanes we’re prepared, 55 and 56.
