Abstract

Arenechromium and cycloheptatrienechromium complexes react with (TMS)ketene acetals to give upon a double nucleophilic addition either diene–lactones or cyclohexenone–lactones. In the first case, the scope of the reaction and the stability of the dienes were examined: they could be easily transformed either in arylpropionic acids or in conjugated ketones and more interestingly, they reacted with oxygen to give new highly active cytotoxic endoperoxide lactones. Unfortunately, in the second case, no further functionalization could be achieved up to now.

Key words: Endoperoxide lactones, cytotoxic activities, γ–lactones, feis(TMS)ketene acetals, tricarbonylchromium complexes, double nucleophilic additions.

 

Resumen

Se describe la reacción entre complejos arentricarbonilcromo y cicloheptatrientricarbonilcromo con acetales de bis(trimetil silil)cetena, la cual mediante una doble adición nucleofílica conduce a la formación tanto de dieno–lactonas como ciclohexenona–lactonas. En el primer caso, se examinó la estabilidad de los dienos: pudiendo éstos transformarse fácilmente en ácidos arilpropiónicos o en cetonas conjugadas y al reaccionar con oxígeno en nuevas endoperoxolactonas con actividad citotóxica importante. Desafortunadamente, en el segundo caso, no pudo realizarse la funcionalización posterior de dichas moléculas.

Palabras clave: Endoperoxolactonas, actividad citotóxica, γ–lactonas, acetales de bis(trimetilsilil)cetena, complejos de tricarbonilcromo, doble adición nucleofílica.
