The resulting homoallylic alcohol was further transformed into a set of ring-closing metathesis (RCM) precursors. These compounds were converted into noviose in few steps using RCM and RCM-allylic-oxidation sequences.}, language = {en} } @article{SchmidtHauke2014, author = {Schmidt, Bernd and Hauke, Sylvia}, title = {Olefin cross metathesis based de novo synthesis of a partially protected L-amicetose and a fully protected L-cinerulose derivative}, series = {Beilstein journal of organic chemistry}, volume = {10}, journal = {Beilstein journal of organic chemistry}, publisher = {Beilstein-Institut zur F{\"o}rderung der Chemischen Wissenschaften}, address = {Frankfurt, Main}, issn = {1860-5397}, doi = {10.3762/bjoc.10.102}, pages = {1023 -- 1031}, year = {2014}, abstract = {Cross metathesis of a lactate derived allylic alcohol and acrolein is the entry point to a de novo synthesis of 4-benzoate protected L-amicetose and a cinerulose derivative protected at C5 and C1.}, language = {en} } @article{SchmidtHaukeMuehlenberg2014, author = {Schmidt, Bernd and Hauke, Sylvia and Muehlenberg, Nino}, title = {Imino glycals via Ruthenium-catalyzed RCM and isomerization}, series = {Synthesis}, volume = {46}, journal = {Synthesis}, number = {12}, publisher = {Thieme}, address = {Stuttgart}, issn = {0039-7881}, doi = {10.1055/s-0033-1338615}, pages = {1648 -- 1658}, year = {2014}, abstract = {N-Allyl-N-homoallylamines were converted in one step into cyclic enamides via a ruthenium-catalyzed assisted tandem catalytic ring-closing metathesis-isomerization sequence.

By conducting the CM in the presence of phenol, the catalyst loading and the reaction time required for quantiative conversion can be reduced, and isomerization can be suppressed. On the other hand, consecutive isomerization can be deliberately promoted by evaporating excess methyl acrylate after completing cross metathesis and by adding a base or silane as chemical triggers.}, language = {en} }
