《Total and formal syntheses of fostriecin》 was written by Dong, Gao; Li, Bohui; O’Doherty, George A.. Quality Control of Benzylidenebis(tricyclohexylphosphine)dichlororutheniumThis research focused ontotal formal synthesis fostriecin. The article conveys some information:
Two formal syntheses and one total synthesis of fostriecin (1) have been achieved, as well as, the synthesis of its related congener dihydro-dephospho-fostriecin. All the routes use the Sharpless dihydroxylation to set the absolute stereochem. at C-8/9 positions and a Leighton allylation to set the C-5 position of the natural product. In the formal syntheses a Noyori transfer hydrogenation of an ynone was used to set the C-11 position while the total synthesis employed a combination of asym. dihydroxylation and Pd-π-allyl reduction to set the C-11 position. Finally in the total synthesis, a trans-hydroboration of the C-12/13 alkyne was used in combination with a Suzuki cross coupling to establish the Z,Z,E-triene of fostriecin (1). The experimental part of the paper was very detailed, including the reaction process of Benzylidenebis(tricyclohexylphosphine)dichlororuthenium(cas: 172222-30-9Quality Control of Benzylidenebis(tricyclohexylphosphine)dichlororuthenium)
Benzylidenebis(tricyclohexylphosphine)dichlororuthenium(cas: 172222-30-9) is the first metathesis catalyst to be widely used in organic synthesis. It is useful for acyclic diene metathesis polymerization (ADMET), Ring-Opening Metathesis Polymerization (ROMP) of strained cyclic olefins, ring opening metathesis (ROM), and so on.Quality Control of Benzylidenebis(tricyclohexylphosphine)dichlororuthenium
