Abstract
A Regioselective synthesis of (R)‐11‐hydroxyaporphine 2 directly from (R)‐10,11‐dihydroxyaporphine ((R)‐apomorphine, 1) is described for the first time. The isopropylidene ketal ring of 10,11‐(isopropyl‐idenyldioxy)aporphine 5 obtained by the isopropylidenation of apomorphine was regioselectively opened by ten equivalents of trimethylaluminum to give (R)‐10‐hydroxy‐11‐tert‐butyloxyaporphine 6. The free 10‐hydioxyl position of 6 was triflated with N‐pbenyltrifluoromethanesulfonimide and potassium carbonate under reflux to give (R)‐10‐[(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyloxy]‐11‐tert‐butyloxyaporphine 7. The reduced product, 11‐tert‐butyloxyaporphine 8 was prepared from 7 by a palladium‐catalyzed hydrogenolysis. The ether cleavage of (R)‐11‐tert‐butyloxyaporphine with 48% hydrobromic acid afforded the desired (R)‐11‐hydroxyaporphine 2 in good yield.
