Abstract

Condensation of (±)-5-allyl-2,3,5-trichloro-4,4-dimethoxy-2-cyclopentenone with phenylethynylmagnesium bromide in THF gave (±)-5α-allyl-2,3,5β-trichloro-4,4-dimethoxy-1α-phenylethynyl-2-cyclopenten-1β-ol which chemoselectively reacted with ozone at the terminal double bond, affording (±)-2,3,5β-trichloro-5α-formylmethyl-4,4-dimethoxy-1α-phenylethynyl-2-cyclopenten-1β-ol. Oxidation of the latter with H2CrO4 yielded a mixture of the expected product, (±)-5α-carboxymethyl-2,3,5β-trichloro-4,4-dimethoxy-1α-phenylethynyl-2-cyclopenten-1β-ol, and anomalous profound oxidation product, (±)-2,3,5β-trichloro-5α-carboxymethyl-4,4-dimethoxy-1α-(2-oxo-2-phenylacetyl)-2-cyclopenten-1β-ol. Attempts to remove protective methoxy groups in these compounds under standard conditions were unsuccessful.
