The Wieland-Miescher ketone is an organic chemical compound . There is a bicyclic Di ketone , which in addition to a double bond is saturated is.

The Wieland-Miescher ketone is named after its discoverers Peter Wieland and Karl Miescher , who developed it at Ciba-Geigy . The actual Wieland-Miescher ketone is obtained racemically by a Robinson annulation , but the enantiomerically pure preparation is of pharmaceutical interest .

presentation

The Wieland-Miescher ketone was first produced by a Robinson annulation . The second step of the Robinson annulation ( aldol reaction ) was carried out organocatalytically via the Eder-Sauer-Wiechert-Hajos-Parrish reaction . Enantiomerically pure ( S ) -proline was used as the organocatalyst, whereby the product could be obtained with high enantioselectivity .

Synthesis of the Wieland-Miescher ketone

The synthesis can also be carried out as a one-pot reaction . The aldol intermediate was only isolated by Hajos and Parrish and described in their patent.

use

The Wieland-Miescher ketone is of synthetic interest for the pharmaceutical industry. It serves as the starting compound for the total synthesis of steroids .
