Abstract top

In the title compound, C34H38O6, the methyl groups on each pyran ring exhibit 1,3-cis stereochemistry, established during synthesis by pseudo-axial delivery of hydride during a lactol reduction step. In the crystal structure, the molecule lies on a twofold rotation axis and the torsion angle about the central diaryl bond is 41.3 (1)°. The molecules pack in a herringbone arrangement.

Comment top

Recent synthetic effort has been directed towards enantioselective synthesis of the dimeric pyranonaphthoquinone core of the cardinalins which were isolated from the New Zealand toadstool Dermocybe cardinalis (Gill et al., 1997a, 1997b). We now report the crystal structure of the title compound (Fig. 1). The assignment of absolute stereochemistry is based on the initial use of a chiral pool reagent in the synthetic sequence. Since the stereochemistry at C3 in the pyran rings (C12 in the crystallographic numbering scheme; Fig. 2) is known to be S, the absolute configuration at C1 (C13 in the crystallographic numbering scheme) has therefore been assigned as R. The torsion angle about the diaryl bond is 41.3 (1)°. The molecules pack in a herringbone arrangement (Fig. 3).

Experimental top

To a solution of 1,1'-(6,6'-bis((S)-2-(tert-butyldiphenylsilyloxy)propyl)-5,5',8,8'-tetramethoxy-2,2'-binaphthyl-7,7'-diyl)diethanone (144 mg, 0.14 mmol) in THF (5 ml) was added a 1 M solution of tetra-n-butylammonium fluoride (3.0 ml, 3.0 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred under nitrogen at room temperature for 3 d then concentrated in vacuo. The resulting residue was flushed through a pad of silica (hexanes-ethyl acetate 1:1–1:3). The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo and the resulting oil was dissolved in distilled dichloromethane (5 ml) and cooled to 195.15 K. Trifluoroacetic acid (0.065 ml, 0.86 mmol) was added and the reaction mixture was stirred for 15 min before addition of triethylsilane (0.13 ml, 0.80 mmol). The reaction mixture was then allowed to reach room temperature over 16 h. Water (20 ml) was added and the mixture extracted with ethyl acetate (20 ml × 3). The combined organic extracts were dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered, concentrated in vacuo and the resulting residue was purified by flash chromatography eluting with hexanes-ethyl acetate (7:3) to give the title compound (52 mg, 0.096 mmol, 70%) as a pale yellow solid which was recrystallized from diethyl ether-dichloromethane; m.p. 541.15–542.15 K

Refinement top

H atoms were placed in calculated positions and were refined using a riding model (C–H = 0.93 or 0.97 Å), with U iso(H) = 1.2 or 1.5 times Ueq(C). In the absence of significant anomalous scattering, the absolute configuration could not be determined and Friedel pairs were merged. The configuration was inferred from the known stereochemistry (S) of C12.

Special details top

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
