RESUMO
As demonstrated with the ß-(2-furyl)-substituted analogue 1b, ß-aryl-α-nitro-α,ß-enals (1) behave as heterodienes against enamines and enol ethers using their enal unit (e.g., 1b â 12). α-Nitro-α,ß-enals can act as well as highly reactive dienophiles to render adducts endowed with nitrogenated quaternary centers (e.g., 1b â 15a). A hetero-Diels-Alder (HDA)/Diels-Alder (DA) sequence from 1b also proved feasible on serial treatment with ethyl vinyl ether and Danishefsky's diene (1b â 14).
RESUMO
A fully stereocontrolled 1,3-diol orthoesterification and a water-promoted intramolecular Henry addition, combined with the previously reported formal (3 + 3) annulation of α-nitro-α,ß-enals and 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxan-5-one, provided for a short convergent pathway to the dioxaadamantane core of (±)-tetrodotoxin.

2-Methoxymethylpyrrolidine best performed, among several other proline derivatives, to control the enantioselective [3+3] annulation of ß-(hetero)aryl-α-nitro-α,ß-enals with commercial 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxan-5-one, a procedure that renders highly oxygenated nitrocyclohexanes endowed with five new stereocenters. Use of this reaction allowed the development of a total synthesis of the antitumoral natural product (+)-pancratistatin; it also converted our previous racemic route to tetrodotoxin into an enantioselective one.
