Mechanistic aspects of the lycopodine Michael-Claisen domino cyclization.

Wilhelm A Eger1, Ernst Anders, Craig M Williams.   

Abstract

The Michael-Claisen domino (MCD) cyclization used in the lycopodine synthesis by Stork, was evaluated mechanistically using DFT calculations. Calculations suggest that a dianion is not formed, which conforms to classical dianion formation normally requiring strong kinetic bases. Instead ethoxide in ethanol produces a monoanionic species driving the MCD cyclization. This endeavor has opened up potential to expand the scope of this unique reaction and provide educational clarity.
