Abstract
12-Carboxamido- and 12-carboxyl-11-spirostenes were synthesized from the corresponding 12-iodo-11-ene derivative in palladium-catalyzed carbonylation reactions under mild reaction conditions. The synthesis of the iodo-alkene substrate is based on the transformation of the 12-keto derivative (hecogenin) to hydrazone, which was treated with iodine in the presence of a base (1,1,3,3-tetramethyl guanidine). While various 12-carboxamides were synthesized in moderate to high yields by using simple alkyl/arylamines or amino acid methylesters as N-nucleophiles, low yields can be achieved with alcohols as O-nucleophiles. The homogeneous carbonylation reactions tolerate the 3-hydroxy substituent and the spiroacetal moiety.
