Abstract
Stereoselective construction of conjugated trienoic acids was achieved through two successive Stille reactions, the first step consisting of the coupling of (E )-1,2-bis(tributylstannyl)ethene and tributylstannyl (Z )- or (E )-3-iodoalk-2-enoates. Two different routes were used for the second step: (1) cross-coupling of the stannyldienoic acid reagents and vinyl iodides, or (2) cross-coupling of vinylstannane reagents and the tributylstannyl 5-iodopenta-2,4-dienoates generated by iododestannylation of stannyldienes. Vinylstannanes synthesized by stannylmetalation of the Negishi dienyne derived from β- or α-ionone and safranal thus provided access to stereodefined retinoic acids. Some retinoid and yne analogues were also prepared by Sonogashira coupling.
Key words
Stille reaction - cross-coupling - tin compounds - trienoic acids - retinoic acids - polyenic acids
