Abstract

Fluorous mixture synthesis was used to prepare a library of 4-alkylidene cyclopentenones starting from a mixture of four α-amino acid derivatives tagged with different fluorous benzyl carbamates (FCBz) of varying fluorine content. The amino acids were converted to the corresponding propargyl esters and then subjected to an ester-enolate Claisen rearrangement to give a mixture of allenic amino esters. The allenes were then split four ways and propargylated with different propargyl bromides to give four mixtures of alkynyl allenes. The 4-alkylidene cyclopentenones were formed by a formal [2+2+1] cycloaddition of the alkynyl allenes using catalytic [Rh(CO)2Cl] 2 under CO atmosphere. Demixing by fluorous preparative HPLC, removal of the fluorous benzyl carbamates, and then exposure to HCl/ether gave the hydrochloride salts of 16 compounds as diastereomeric mixtures in 69-99% purity. Thus, after just 26 chemical steps, a library of 16 cyclopentenones was prepared by using fluorous mixture synthesis. By comparison, the same library would have required 112 steps if each compound were made individually by parallel synthesis.
