Studies toward the enantiospecific total synthesis of rhodexin A via a very hindered inverse electron demand Diels-Alder reaction are described. The C8-diastereomer of the fully elaborated tetracyclic core of rhodexin A, I, was prepared in good yield and excellent selectivity using as the key step the stepwise Diels-Alder reaction of the very hindered dienone II and the silyl enol ether III catalyzed by the very strong Lewis acid, dimethylaluminum triflimide. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, 2-Ethyl-2-methyl-1,3-dioxolane (cas: 126-39-6COA of Formula: C6H12O2).
2-Ethyl-2-methyl-1,3-dioxolane (cas: 126-39-6) belongs to dioxole derivatives. Dioxoles, particularly fluorinated dioxoles, are used as co-monomers to make polymers that find use in forming protective coatings for chemical resistance. Although benzodioxole is not particularly important, many related compounds containing the methylenedioxyphenyl group are bioactive, and thus are found in pesticides and pharmaceuticals.COA of Formula: C6H12O2
