Diastereoselective Rhodium‐Catalyzed [(3+2+2)] Carbocyclization Reactions with Tethered Alkynylidenecyclopropanes: Synthesis of the Tremulane Sesquiterpene Natural Products
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract The development of a diastereoselective intramolecular rhodium‐catalyzed [(3+2+2)] carbocyclization reactions of allyl ester‐tethered alkynylidenecyclopropanes (ACPs) for the construction of the 5,7,5‐tricyclic scaffold of the tremulane sesquiterpene natural products is described. This work illustrates that the stereoelectronic nature of the phosphite ligand is critical for attaining high levels of stereocontrol, which is supported by density functional theory (DFT) studies that indicate the migratory insertion step favors the formation of the cis‐diastereoisomer. Consequently, several strategies were devised to access the thermodynamically more stable trans‐diastereoisomer for the synthesis of the tremulanes; however, the attempts to either switch the sense of stereocontrol in the carbocyclization reaction or epimerize the C7 stereocenter of the cycloadduct provided only modest improvements. Hence, we elected to highlight the synthetic utility of this strategy with the development of concise and highly efficient syntheses of (±)‐epi‐tremulenolide A, (±)‐epi‐tremulenediol A and (±)‐epi‐ceriponol D.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
