3-Methyl-2- (2-propeny1) -2-cyclopentenone (Allylrethrone, 1) is an important component of an insecticidal pyrethroid and an intermediate for the synthesis of pyrethrins.
The procedure for the synthesis of (1) from methyl 3-formyl propionate (2) is shown in Scheme-1.
Keto ester (4), prepared from (2) and 2-methyl-2-vinyl-1, 3-dioxolane (3) by radical addition reaction in 76 % yield, was treated with ethylene glycol to give diacetal (5) in 72 % yield. Reduction of (5) with sodium bis (2-methoxyethoxy) aluminium hydride in benzene gave diacetal alcohol (6) in 95 % yield, which was oxidized to diacetal aldehyde (7) with pyridinium chlorochromate in 66 % yield.
Diacetal aldehyde (7) was reacted with the ylid prepared form methyltriphenylphosphonium iodide to give (8) in 91 % yield, which was hydrolyzed with hydrochloric acid to afford diketone (9) in 95 % yield. The base-catalized cyclization of (9) gave (1) in 92 % yield.
