Vitamin-B12-Catalyzed C, C-Bond Formation: Synthesis of Jasmonates via Sequential Radical ReactionThe Cbl-catalyzed electroreduction of 3-(2′-bromo-1′-ethoxyethoxy)cyclopenten (1a) in presence of 1-cyanovinyl-acetate (8) gave, in a sequential radical reaction (5-exo-trig-cyclization of 1a followed by addition to 8), 1-cyano-2-(2′-ethoxy-hexahydro-2′H-cyclopenta[b] furan-4′-yl)ethyl acetate (10a). This intermediate was transformed to methyl jasmonate (7; four steps) and epituberolide (9; three steps) in 20 and 31% yield, respectively, from cyclopent-2-en-l-ol.
