A two-step sequence for the asymmetric vicinal acylation of olefins by a [2+2+1] strategy is reported. The key reaction is a [2+2] cycloaddition of an olefin to a chiral keteniminium salt derived from N-tosylsarcosinamide. This is followed by a regioselective Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of the resulting cyclobutanone to yield a lactol derivative that is equivalent to the product of addition of a carboxyl and a carbonyl group to the olefin. N-Tosylsarcosinamides derived from prolinol methyl ether and 2,5-dimethylpyrrolidine gave the best yields and diastereoselectivities. Five- and six-membered cycloolefins only gave cis products as expected. With seven- and eight-membered rings and cis 1,2-disubstituted acyclic olefins, partial or complete epimerisation of the cis to the trans adducts was observed. Facial selectivities were generally good except for terminal olefins. The oxidation step proceeded in high yields to give crystalline compounds which could usually be obtained in enantiopure form by simple recrystallisation.

[reaction: see text] (+/-)-Kelsoene (4) has been synthesized from 2,5-dihydroanisole in 16 steps in 12.5% overall yield. The key step involves a base-catalyzed reaction of gamma-keto tosylate (5), which effects a homo-Favorskii rearrangement to 16 as well as the corresponding intramolecular S(N)2 product 15 from the enolate of 5. Ketone 15 can efficiently be isomerized to cyclobutanone 17 having the kelsoene carbon skeleton upon acid treatment.

Intramolecular insertion of a C-C double bond into a C-C single bond was achieved by treatment of cyclobutanone bearing an o-styryl group at the 3-position with a catalytic amount of a cationic rhodium(I)-dppp complex. Initially, rhodium is inserted between the carbonyl carbon and the alpha-carbon of the cyclobutanone. Intramolecular coordination of the vinyl group results in its migratory insertion into the C-Rh linkage. Reductive elimination affords benzobicyclo[3.2.1]octan-3-one. Notably, a ring-opened alpha,beta-unsaturated ketone was obtained when dppe was used instead of dppp. In this reaction, rhodium cleaved the bond between the alpha sp3 carbon and the beta sp3 carbon of the cyclobutanone. The coordinating vinyl group directs this new regioselectivity of cleavage observed with the dppe ligand.

Food irradiation is acknowledged as a safe process to improve food quality by reducing microbial contamination. Information on the toxicological potential of 2-alkylcyclobutanones (2-ACBs), radiolytic derivatives of triglycerides found exclusively in irradiated food, is scarce. Wistar rats received daily a solution of highly pure 2-tetradecylcyclobutanone (2-tDCB) or 2-(tetradec-5-enyl)-cyclobutanone (2-tDeCB) at a concentration of 0.005% in 1% ethanol as drinking fluid, while control animals received 1% ethanol. All animals received a single intraperitoneal injection of the chemical carcinogen azoxymethane (AOM) at Weeks 3 and 4. At 3 mo after AOM injection, no significant changes were observed in the total number of preneoplastic lesions in the colon of AOM controls and 2-ACB-treated animals. After 6 mo, the total number of tumors in the colon was threefold higher in the 2-ACB-treated animals than in the AOM controls. The colon of four of six AOM control rats exhibited only one small tumor ( &6 mm3). Multiple tumors were observed in four and three of six animals treated with 2-tDCB or 2-tDeCB, respectively. Medium (6 < S < 25 mm3) and larger (>25 mm3) tumors were detected only in 2-ACB-treated animals. This is the first demonstration that a compound found exclusively in irradiated dietary fats may promote colon carcinogenesis in animals treated with a chemical carcinogen.

A Rh(I)/(R)-Tol-BINAP catalyst reacts with a racemic mixture of 4-alkynals to selectively furnish a cyclobutanone from the (R)-substrate and a cyclopentenone from the (S)-substrate. This method is noteworthy from several standpoints, including the scarcity of parallel kinetic resolutions (especially those that are catalyzed or that involve carbon-carbon bond formation) and the dearth of catalytic processes that generate enantioenriched cyclobutanones.

Pestalotiopsin A is a structurally unique, caryophyllene-type sesquiterpene which has shown immunosuppressive activity and cytotoxicity in preliminary assays. A stereocontrolled approach to the functionalised 2-oxabicyclo[3.2.0]-heptane core of pestalotiopsin A is described. This constitutes the first synthetic studies on pestalotiopsin A. Our approach includes a samarium(II)-mediated 4-exo-trig cyclisation and a trans-lactonisation process triggered by the addition of alkylytterbium reagents to a cyclobutanone intermediate. Further manipulation provides access to advanced intermediates which are excellent precursors for the future construction of the final ring of the target.

The enolates generated from cyclopentanone, cycloheptanone or cyclooctanone and LDA at -78 degrees C in THF react with (+/-)-phenyl vinyl sulfoxide under controlled conditions of temperature, reaction time, and concentration. Upon oxidation with MCPBA of the product mixtures, the novel sulfonylbicyclo[3.2.0]heptan-1-ols10-12,sulfonylbicyclo[5.2.0]-nonan-1-ols 16-18, and sulfonylbicyclo[6.2.0]decan-1-ols 21 and 22 in conjunction with alkylated ketones 8, 9, 15, 19 and 20 were obtained from the respective ketones. The enolate generated from cyclobutanone and LDA at -78 degrees C in THF reacts with (+/-)-phenyl vinyl sulfoxide and upon oxidation with MCPBA, the cyclohexanone 4 and monoalkylated cyclobutanone 5 were obtained. The ratio of bicyclo[n.2.0]alkan-1-ol to alkylated products varied with the ketone enolate, conversion of phenyl vinyl sulfoxide, time, temperature and concentration of reaction and the stability and steric strain of the final bicyclo[n.2.0]alkan-1-ol product.

This paper describes a new mechanistic feature for the Staudinger ketene-alkene cycloaddition reactions to give cyclobutanones. Low-temperature NMR (13C, 19F, and 1H) monitoring of a reaction between bis(trifluoromethyl)ketene (1) and ethyl vinyl ether (2) has shown that the Staudinger reaction proceeds to form initially and exclusively an alpha-methyleneoxetane (3) by [2 + 2](C=O) cycloaddition across the ketene C=O bond. The initial intermediate 3 undergoes ring cleavage to produce a 1,4-zwitterion (4), which is converted to the final [2 + 2](C=C)-type product, cyclobutanone (5). The key intermediate 3 has been isolated in its pure form and was found to be converted to the final products 5 on warming, via the 1,4-zwitterion 4. The alpha-methyleneoxetane 3 is so reactive that it reacts with methanol rapidly even at -80 degrees C via solvolysis to afford an adduct 7. The ion 4 derived from the pure isolated oxetane 3 was intercepted with acetone by a 1,4-dipolar cycloaddition to give a 1,3-dioxane 8. An open-chain alpha,beta-enone (6) has been also obtained from 3. We conclude that the (1 + 2) reaction proceeds in a new three-step mechanism; formation of an alpha-methyleneoxetane 3, a [2 + 2]-type cycloadduct across the C=O bond of ketene, followed by ring cleavage to give the zwitterion 4 and by recombination to form the final product, cyclobutanone 5. The zwitterion 4 is not equilibrating with reactants 1 and 2 but comes from the alpha-methyleneoxetane 3. Exclusive formation of another oxetane 12 has been observed in a reaction between diphenylketene (9) and methyl isopropenyl ether (11). The selectivity of initial formation of cyclobutanone or oxetane has been generalized with aid of frontier-orbital theory and ab initio calculations.

Nine 2-substituted cyclobutanone acetals, in addition to the parent cyclobutanone acetal, were synthesized from their corresponding cyclobutanones and subsequently treated with boron tribromide. The substituents were either alkyl chains or a phenyl and a benzyl group, respectively. The major compounds obtained in these reactions were, in most cases, the geminal dibromocyclobutanes which were obtained in yields between 50 and 73%. A 2-fold excess of BBr3 and a reaction time of 3 h at -78 degrees C afforded the best yields. In four cases no dibromide formation was observed at all, and the cyclobutanone acetals were hydrolyzed to the corresponding cyclobutanone. This is probably due to increased steric hindrance of the acetal and BBr3 in the transition state.

The compact tricyclic substructure of solanoeclepin A containing the cyclobutanone ring was prepared by using as the key step a highly regioselective intramolecular [2 + 2]-photocycloaddition reaction between one of the [small pi]-bonds of an allene and the CC double bond of a butenolide.
