Formal radical cyclization onto aromatic rings, cascade intramolecular conjugate displacement and synthetic studies on marinopyrroles
DownloadFall 2011
The first chapter of this thesis describes the development of a general method for indirectly effecting radical carbocyclization of an alkyl chain onto an aromatic ring. This process involves a Birch reductive alkylation of aromatic tert-butyl esters, chromium(VI)-mediated oxidation and radical...

Intramolecular conjugate displacement for making carbocycles and studies on the total synthesis of MPC1001
DownloadFall 2011
The first chapter of this thesis describes methodology on an all-carbon intramolecular conjugate displacement between a carbon nucleophile and a Morita-Baylis-Hillman adduct for making carbocyclic skeletons. The reaction scope was examined with different electron-withdrawing groups, types of...
