✦ Synopsis
Starting from our recently described synthon (+)-24, the enantiomerically pure 3,6:4,5:3',6':4,5'-tetraepoxy-4,5,4,5'-tetrahydro-&,~-carotene (34) and its 15,15'-didehydro analogue 32 were synthesized in eleven and nine steps, respectively (Scheme 4 ) . Chiroptical data show, in contrast to the parent &,&-carotene, a very weak interaction between the chiral centers at C(5), C(5'), C( 6), C ( 6) , and the polyene system. Diisobutylaluminium hydride reduction of 32 lead rather than to the expected 15,15'-didehydro analogue 35 of cycloviolaxanthin (8), to the polyenyne 36 (Scheme 5). We explain this reaction by an oxirane rearrangement leading to a cyclopropyl ether followed by a fragmentation to an aldehyd on the one side and an enol ether on the other (Scheme 6). This complex rearrangement includes a shift of the whole polyenyne chain from C(6), C(6') to C(5), C(5') of the original molecule. I ) Aus der Dissertation [I]; gegenwartige Adresse: F.
