Abstract
A short synthesis of novel prostanoids, 12-epi-carbacyclins 3 and 24, has been accomplished using palladium chemistry as a key step. The silyl enol ether 10a prepared through organopalladium chemistry has been allowed to react with 1-octen-3-one in the presence of Pd(OAc)2 to give compound 12 in a single step. The unusual chemo- and stereoselective reduction of the α,β-unsaturated ketone in 12 has been effected with (S)-BINAL-H. Subsequent desilylation and Wittig reaction have provided the PGI2 analogues 3 and 24.
