What happens when you want one aldehyde to be the electrophile and one aldehyde to be the nucleophile. You have to control this. There are three methods described. No β hydrogen. Make sure that one aldehyde does not have a β hydrogen so it can’t form the enol or enolate. It will have to be the electrophile and so the other species will be the nucleophile.

The enantioselective cyclization of the prochiral cyclic substrates 1 to 7 and 26, can be carried out in the neat using S-proline as catalyst. The substrates 18 to 22 and 27 could not be cyclized with S-proline but could be cyclized with a mixture of S-phenylalanine and d-camphorsulphonic acid. The enantioselective cyclization of prochiral acyclic triones 45 and 47 and also the racemic tricarbonyl compounds 54 to 57 could also be carried out in the neat using S-proline as catalyst. The optically active enediones obtained in the above cyclizations could also be obtained directly from 1,3-diones or 2-hydroxymethylene cycloalkanones in a one-pot reaction with methyl vinyl ketone (MVK) and S-proline in the absence of solvents. 13C NMR studies of the one-pot synthesis of S-11 and S-14 reveal that the annulations involve initial formation of an acid-base complex followed by a Michael reaction and then an enantioselective cyclization. Such enantioselective cyclizations probably occur on the surface of S-proline crystals. Keywords. Enantioselective annulation; cyclization; S-proline; S-phenylalanine; d-camphorsulphonic acid.

Robinson Annulation
Robinson annulation The Robinson annulation is a chemical reaction used in organic Robinson annulation chemistry for ring formation. It was discovered by Robert Robinson Named after Robert Robinson in 1935 as a method to create a six membered ring by forming three new carbon–carbon bonds.[1] The method uses a ketone and a methyl Reaction type Ring forming vinyl ketone to form an α,β-unsaturated ketone in a cyclohexane ring reaction by a Michael addition followed by an aldol condensation. This Identifiers procedure is one of the key methods to form fused ring systems. Organic robinson-annulation Chemistry Portal RSC ontology RXNO:0000380 ID Formation of cyclohexenone and derivatives are important in chemistry for their application to the synthesis of many natural products and other interesting organic compounds such as antibiotics and steroids.[2] Specifically, the synthesis of cortisone is completed through the use of the Robinson annulation.[3] The initial paper on the Robinson annulation was published by William Rapson and Robert Robinson while Rapson studied at Oxford with professor Robinson. Before their work, cyclohexenone syntheses were not derived from the α,β-unsaturated ketone component. Initial approaches coupled the methyl vinyl ketone with a naphthol to give a naphtholoxide, but this procedure was not sufficient to form the desired cyclohexenone. This was attributed to unsuitable conditions of the reaction.[1] Robinson and Rapson found in 1935 that the interaction between cyclohexanone and α,β-unsaturated ketone afforded the

Experiment 19 — Aldol Condensation
Chem 22 Spring 2010 Experiment 19 — Aldol Condensation _____________________________________________________________________________ Pre-lab preparation. (1) Write the mechanism of the base-catalyzed aldol condensation of acetone and a generalized aromatic aldehyde, Ar–CH=O to give the α,β-unsaturated product (i.e. the reaction at the top of the next page, but with a 1:1 ratio of ketone and aldehyde). Remember that dehydration in this case occurs under basic conditions, so it can't start with protonation of the hydroxyl group. Nor can it go via an E2 pathway. (2) Draw the structures of all the possible aldehyde and ketone reactants (not the 25 possible condensation products!). (3) The new CC double bonds of the condensation products are E rather than Z, as shown in the acetone example. Why? (4) What's the purpose of rinsing the crude product with dilute acetic acid, followed by ethanol? (5) What is the procedure for carrying out a single-solvent recrystallization? Write this out in detail. The aldol condensation has historically been one of the favorite tools in the synthetic organic chemist's repertoire because of its versatility in forming new CC bonds. Since its discovery in the 1870s the aldol condensation has been use extensively in the synthesis of natural products and other complex molecules. In a typical base-catalyzed aldol condensation an enolate ion attacks the carbonyl group of an aldehyde or ketone. This carbonyl addition produces a β-hydroxy carbonyl compound. In many cases the initially formed condensation product undergoes an "E1cB" dehydration to produce an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compound as the final product.

The Life and Achievements of Robert Burns Woodward Long Literature Seminar July 13, 2009 Erika A. Crane “The structure known, but not yet accessible by synthesis, is to the chemist what the unclimbed mountain, the uncharted sea, the untilled ﬁeld, the unreached planet, are to other men. The achievement of the objective in itself cannot but thrill all chemists, who even before they know the details of the journey can apprehend from their own experience the joys and elations, the disappointments and false hopes, the obstacles overcome, the frustrations subdued, which they experienced who traversed a road to the goal. The unique challenge which chemical synthesis provides for the creative imagination and the skilled hand ensures that it will endure as long as men write books, paint pictures, and fashion things which are beautiful, or practical, or both.” “Art and Science in the Synthesis of Organic Compounds: Retrospect and Prospect,” in Pointers and Pathways in Research (Bombay:CIBA of India, 1963).

Aldol Condensation
Chemistry 212 Laboratory Dibenzalacetone via Crossed Aldol Condensation Prelab: Calculate the amounts of all chemicals needed in measurable amounts (i.e. grams or milliliters rather than moles.) Introduction: Aldol condensations are important in organic synthesis, providing a good way to form carbon–carbon bonds. The "aldol" (aldehyde + alcohol) product is a structural unit found in many naturally occurring molecules and pharmaceuticals, and is therefore important. In an Aldol condensation an enolate ion reacts with a carbonyl compound to form a β- hydroxyaldehyde or β-hydroxyketone, followed by dehydration to give a conjugated enone. The general equation is shown in Figure 1. O O O R" B: H R R'" R "R R'" loss of H2O H R' R' Figure 1. The equation for the Aldol Condensation. The reaction involves the nucleophilic addition of an enolate to an aldehyde to form a β-hydroxy carbonyl. The β-hydroxy carbonyl is readily dehydrated under mild conditions. The aldol reaction occurs under both acidic and basic conditions as seen in Figure 2.

Biocatalyzed Synthesis of Statins: a Sustainable Strategy for the Preparation of Valuable Drugs

Alcántara 1,* 1 Department of Chemistry in Pharmaceutical Sciences, Faculty of Pharmacy, Complutense University of Madrid, Campus de Moncloa, E-28040 Madrid, Spain; [email protected] 2 Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry, Faculty of Life Sciences, Althanstrasse 14, A-1090 Vienna, Austria; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +34-91-394-1823 Received: 25 February 2019; Accepted: 9 March 2019; Published: 14 March 2019 Abstract: Statins, inhibitors of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase, are the largest selling class of drugs prescribed for the pharmacological treatment of hypercholesterolemia and dyslipidaemia. Statins also possess other therapeutic effects, called pleiotropic, because the blockade of the conversion of HMG-CoA to (R)-mevalonate produces a concomitant inhibition of the biosynthesis of numerous isoprenoid metabolites (e.g., geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate (GGPP) or farnesyl pyrophosphate (FPP)). Thus, the prenylation of several cell signalling proteins (small GTPase family members: Ras, Rac, and Rho) is hampered, so that these molecular switches, controlling multiple pathways and cell functions (maintenance of cell shape, motility, factor secretion, differentiation, and proliferation) are regulated, leading to beneﬁcial effects in cardiovascular health, regulation of the immune system, anti-inﬂammatory and immunosuppressive properties, prevention and treatment of sepsis, treatment of autoimmune diseases, osteoporosis, kidney and neurological disorders, or even in cancer therapy. Thus, there is a growing interest in developing more sustainable protocols for preparation of statins, and the introduction of biocatalyzed steps into the synthetic pathways is highly advantageous—synthetic routes are conducted under mild reaction conditions, at ambient temperature, and can use water as a reaction medium in many cases.
