Synthesis of 2-(12-aryldodecanoyl)cyclohexane-1,3-diones

Аннотация

Synthesis was developed of 2-(10-undecenoyl)cyclohexane-1,3-diones containing in the side chain keto and hydroxy groups and a phenyl substituent. The synthesis is underlain by a nitrile oxide approach. The scheme included isoxazole synthesis for the protection of the β,β′-tricarbonyl fragment, building up of a heterocycle by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of nitrile oxide in situ to the terminal double bond, cycle opening (of isoxazole and isoxazoline), and alkaline hydrolysis.
