Article Abstract

The efficient synthesis of pyranones is presented by a three-component cascade reaction from readily available acrylic acids, ethyl glyoxylate, and -toluenesulfonamide under ruthenium catalysis. For the first time, the nucleophilic addition of the vinylic C-H bond of acrylic acids across aldehyde is achieved, and the intramolecular cyclization as well as subsequent second insertion to aldehyde form the substituted butenolides. The elimination of sulfonamides occurs at higher temperature to give the pyranones.

An designed benzodioxin fused analogue of a des-(1-hydroxyethyl)-lincomycin analogue was synthesized in a asymmetric fashion from an achiral acylfuran, a 4-(-Pr)--methyl-proline, and catechol. The synthesis of the 6-amino-galactose portion of the lincomycin analogue necessitated the development of a novel stereospecific tandem Pd-glycosylation/1,4-addition reaction between catechol and an -Cbz-protected 6-amino-pyranone with a Pd-π-allyl leaving group at the -1 position. The desired -stereochemistry was installed by a subsequent stereoselective ketone reduction, alcohol elimination, and diastereoselective dihydroxylation of the -3/4 alkene.

A simple and efficient synthesis of functionalized alkylidenephthalides, butenolides, pyranones, and isocoumarins was achieved using I-PPh-EtN reagent combination. The products obtained through this method act as versatile components in organic synthesis, enabling further modifications of functional groups. This method exhibits a wide substrate scope, employs straightforward and cost-effective reagents, eliminates the need for acidic, carbodiimide or other coupling agents, and operates at ambient temperature.

Pogostemon cablin is a well-known Lamiaceae plant and widely utilized in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) for its neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory, and anxiolytic properties. In this study, 16 known compounds (1-15 and 17) and one semi-synthesized new compound, 5-hydroxy-3-isoprenyloxy-7,3',4'-trimethoxyflavone (16), including flavonoids, pyranones, sesquiterpenes, and benzenoids, were obtained and characterized from aerial parts of P. cablin and investigated for their anti-inflammatory properties through the MAPK and NF-κB signaling pathways in LPS-induced RAW264.
