Article Abstract
The regioselective opening of the F ring of 22-oxo-23-spiroketals 7a-d using TiCl in acetic anhydride yielded the novel furostanols 11a-d along with cholestanic derivatives 8a-d with pyranone E ring. The structures of the new derivatives thus obtained were established using one- (DEPT) and two-dimensional H, C NMR experiments (COSY, HSQC, HMBC, NOESY). The 22α-hydroxyl orientation in compounds 11a-d was proposed by comparison of the C chemical shifts with those of other aglycone members of this family, and confirmed by combined NOESY and X-ray diffraction analysis of compound 11a.

TiCl-Mediated Diastereoselective Tandem Reactions of Functionalized Keto Esters and Dihydrofurans: Synthesis of Substituted Tricyclic Hexahydro-2-benzocycloheptafurans.

We report highly diastereoselective TiCl-mediated tandem reactions that provide functionalized tricyclic benzocycloheptafurans in an efficient manner. The reaction of a range of substituted α-keto esters with dihydrofuran or phenyl dihydrofuran in CHCl set up a tandem reaction sequence, providing fused ring heterocycles. The precursor-substituted keto esters were synthesized efficiently by using a two-step sequence.

Density functional theory is employed in understanding the reactivity in the TiCl catalyzed Friedel-Crafts benzylation of benzene with substituted benzyl chlorides in nitromethane solvent. A series of ten substituted (in the aromatic ring) benzyl chlorides are characterized by theoretical reactivity indices. The theoretical parameters are juxtaposed to experimental relative rates of benzylation.

Article Synopsis
- The study outlines the synthesis and properties of a Ti(II)/Ti(III) inverted sandwich compound, beginning with a titanium(IV) precursor and its reduction through sodium metal to form a titanium(III) species.
- Further reduction using lithium cyclopentyl leads to the formation of the mixed-valence Ti(II)/Ti(III) compound, confirmed by X-ray and EPR characterization.
- The compound demonstrates effective catalytic activity for the cyclotrimerization of alkynes, utilizing a mechanism where two alkynes couple before a cycloaddition occurs, resulting in 1,3,5-substituted arenes.

This study presents a total synthesis and revision of the stereochemical configuration of the conformationally flexible natural product benzo[]isochromene stereodiad alongside its diastereomeric counterparts. The highlights of the synthesis are the TiCl-mediated diastereoselective aldol reaction, Pd-catalyzed lactonization, and Schmidt glycosidation. Our efforts using total synthesis disclosed herein proved that a previously assigned structure required revision.

Although the C-H functionalization of -heterocycles is, in fact, an easy chemical transformation, the C-H functionalization is, on the contrary, a quite difficult chemical process. Here, we present a two-step protocol that allows the ready conversion of pyrrolidines, piperidines, and an azepane into their corresponding 3--alkenyl lactams via the transient formation of 3-alkoxyamino lactams followed by a Wittig-like C(sp)-O bond olefination with stabilized ylides from phosphonium salts mediated by -BuOK. Additionally, as a proof of the synthetic effectiveness of this novel methodology, the first synthesis of the natural product callylactam A was achieved through a TiCl-catalyzed double bond isomerization of a 3--alkenyl 2-piperidone to its isomer.
