Synthesis and Absolute Configuration of (2S,3S,3aS,6S,7aR)-2,3-Dihydroxy-2-((R)-1-hydroxy-3-methylbutyl)-3,6-dimethylhexahydrobenzofuran-4(2H)-one

To investigate the anti-ulcer effect of bisabolangelone reduction derivatives, the sesquiterpene was further proceeded with dihydroxylation reaction. The structure of the target compound was characterized by IR, ESI-MS, 2D NMR and elemental analysis, and its absolute configuration was confirmed with a Flack parameter of 0.08（16） by X-ray crystallography using a Cu radiation source. Compound（3）, C（15）H（26）O5, crystal data： monoclinic system, space group P21, a = 11.467（2）, b = 6.0303（12）, c = 11.711（2） A, β = 99.70（3）°, V = 798.3（3） A3, Z = 2, F（000） = 312, Dc = 1.191 g/cm3, μ = 0.723 mm-1） R = 0.0303 and wR = 0.0797 for 2590 independent reflections（Rint = 0.0164） and 2563 observed ones（I 〉 2σ（I））.

亚稳醌类分子的活性调控与仿生催化反应

醌及其亚胺类化合物是高亲电性、去芳构化的经典合成子,然而受限于易聚合、易水解等稳定性问题,其制备以及合成应用存在诸多挑战.我们利用仿生催化氧化策略,以易得的酚类化合物为原料,发展了金属催化剂/绿色终端氧化剂组合的催化体系,实现了高活性亚稳醌类分子的原位生成与活性调控,丰富了基于醌中间体的[3+2]、[3+3]、[4+2]等多个环加成反应并实现了区域选择性和立体选择性调控.对我们小组在亚稳醌的活性调控和仿生催化反应方面的研究成果做阶段性小节.
