Abstract

The Diels-Alder cyclodimer of 6-vinyl-7-oxabicyclo[2.2. 1]hept-5-en-2-one ((1RS,2SR,3SR,4RS,7RS,11SR, 12RS)-11-vinyl-15,16-dioxapentacyclo[10.2.1.1(4,7).0(2,11).0(3.8)]hexade c-8-ene-6,13-dione: 20) was converted into the corresponding 8,9-endo-epoxide ((1RS,2SR,3RS,4RS,7RS,8RS,9SR,11SR,12RS)-11-vinyl-8,9-epoxy-15, 16-dioxapentacyclo[10.2.1.1(4,7).0(2,11).0(3.8)]hexadecane-6,1 3-dione: 23) by successive chemoselective bromine addition, epoxidation and zinc-induced debromination. Epoxide ring heterolysis of 23 was accompanied by pinacolic rearrangement giving a 5a-vinyl-perhydro-1H-benz[e]inden-3,7-dione-3a-carbaldehyde derivative ((1RS,3RS, 3aSR,5SR,5aRS,6SR,8RS, 8aSR,8bSR)-1,3,3a,4,5,8,8a,8b-octahydro-10,11-dioxo-3a-vinyl-6H-1,3:5a,8 -diethanobenzo[1,2-c,3,4-c']difuran-5,6-diyl dipivalate: 24). Photo-reductive ethereal ring opening of the 7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-one moiety of 24, followed by ozonolysis of the vinyl group provided a trans,transoid,cis-perhydro-1H-benz[e]inden-3,7-dione bearing a free 9-hydroxy group, two masked hydroxy groups at C-1, C-4, a masked carbaldehyde group at C-3a and a free carbaldehyde group at C-5a ((1RS,3SR,3aRS,4SR,5aSR,9RS, 9aSR,9bSR)-5a-formyl- 1,4,5,5a,6,7,8,9,9a,9b-decahydro-9-hydroxy-7, 10-dioxo-3H-1,3-ethanonaphtho[1,2-c]furan-3,3-diyl dipivalate: 5).

Aldehyde

In organic chemistry, an aldehyde (ˈældᵻhaɪd) is an organic compound containing a functional group with the structure . The functional group itself (without the "R" side chain) can be referred to as an aldehyde but can also be classified as a formyl group. Aldehydes are a common motif in many chemicals important in technology and biology. Aldehyde molecules have a central carbon atom that is connected by a double bond to oxygen, a single bond to hydrogen and another single bond to a third substituent, which is carbon or, in the case of formaldehyde, hydrogen.

Expanded genetic code

An expanded genetic code is an artificially modified genetic code in which one or more specific codons have been re-allocated to encode an amino acid that is not among the 22 common naturally-encoded proteinogenic amino acids. The key prerequisites to expand the genetic code are: the non-standard amino acid to encode, an unused codon to adopt, a tRNA that recognises this codon, and a tRNA synthetase that recognises only that tRNA and only the non-standard amino acid.

Polyvinyl chloride

Polyvinyl chloride (alternatively: poly(vinyl chloride), colloquial: polyvinyl, or simply vinyl; abbreviated: PVC) is the world's third-most widely produced synthetic polymer of plastic (after polyethylene and polypropylene). About 40 million tons of PVC are produced each year. PVC comes in rigid (sometimes abbreviated as RPVC) and flexible forms. Rigid PVC is used in construction for pipe, doors and windows. It is also used in making plastic bottles, packaging, and bank or membership cards.
