Asymmetric Synthesis of Carbocycles by Intramolecular Conjugate Displacement & Synthetic Studies on Sorbicillactone A
DownloadSpring 2014
The first chapter of this thesis describes an intramolecular conjugate displacement (ICD) for the asymmetric synthesis of carbocycles using a carbon nucleophile. The precursors for ICD were synthesized by Morita-Baylis-Hillman reaction between (5R)-5-(l-menthyloxy)-2(5H)-furanone and aldehydes,...

Preparation of para-disubstituted benzenes, formation of optically pure cyclic amines by intramolecular conjugate displacement and total synthesis of marinopyrrole B
DownloadSpring 2013
The first chapter of this thesis describes a method for making para-disubstituted benzenes. The process involves reaction of acetylides with aldehydes to give 1,4-diols, triple bond reduction and oxidation of the resulting 1,4-diols to 1,4-diketones. Treatment of the 1,4-diketones with...
