Tandem cyclisations involving alpha-ketenyl alkyl radicals. New syntheses of the natural triquinanes pentalenene and modhephene

New synthetic approaches to the angular and propellane sesquiterpene triquinanes (+/-)-pentalenene 2 and (+/-)-modhephene 3, respectively, are described. The syntheses are based on tandem cyclisations involving alpha-ketene alkyl radical intermediates produced from alpha,beta-unsaturated acyl radica...

Zusammenfassung:New synthetic approaches to the angular and propellane sesquiterpene triquinanes (+/-)-pentalenene 2 and (+/-)-modhephene 3, respectively, are described. The syntheses are based on tandem cyclisations involving alpha-ketene alkyl radical intermediates produced from alpha,beta-unsaturated acyl radical species, as highlighted in Schemes 2 and 4.
