Abstract
An increasing appreciation of molecular architecture and design will provide a greater impetus to tackle the exciting and elaborate structural targets that will confront chemistry in the twenty-first Century. It is, therefore, of the upmost importance that methods by which outwardly complex chemical systems can be assembled selectively, rapidly, and efficiently, are devised. Towards this goal, a trebly diastereoselective tandem Diels-Alder reaction sequence has been developed. Subsequently, we have demonstrated how this synthetic methodology can be utilized for the synthesis of novel macropolycyclic molecular structures. In each cycloaddition, the stereoelectronic characteristics, that are inherent in part of the rigid bicyclic frameworks of both bisdienophile and bisdiene building blocks, are used to dictate their respective modes of reaction. The outcome of this substrate-directed approach to organic synthesis allows the rapid and highly-controlled assembly of an increasing range of apparently complex molecular structures. The diastereoselectivities that are witnessed in each cycloaddition are rationalized as involving kinetically-controlled transition-state effects. The rationalization is based upon maximal vicinal staggering and the subsequent minimization of torsional strain within the rigid bicyclic framework in the transition state. In this survey, the application of the repetitive Diels-Alder approach for the synthesis of a wide range of macropolycyclic molecular structures is examined. The potential of these compounds as ideal precursors in the preparation of intriguing hydrocarbons is revealed. The pivotal role played by the sequential use of mild and forcing conditions — most notably the use of thermally- and high pressure-promoted Diels-Alder reactions — to produce oligomeric compounds in a predictable and stepwise manner is documented. Throughout these discussions, special attention has been given to the methods employed for the purification and characterization of this new class of unnatural products.

The conclusions appear to be that: (1) The macropolycyclic precursor of vitamin B12, uroporphyrinogen III, is the thermodynamically-favored product from the self-condensation of porphobilinogen. (2) In the presence of a complexing metal, pyrrocorphin is more stable than the tautomeric porphyrinogen. The pyrrocorphin nucleus can also undergo regioselective C-protonation to generate the corrin chromophore. Thus, the arrangement of the double bonds in the ligand is a self-constituting structural element. (3) The smaller coordination hole of the corrin ligand is suited ideally to cobalt(II). The destabilising ‘ruffling’ of the corrin ligand is not necessary as it is in the case of the porphyrin. (4) The kinetic attatchment of the nucleotide chain to the propionic acid residue on ring D reflects the thermodynamic stability of the pre-reaction complex over the 7 other possible isomers. Aspects of the synthesis of vitamin B12 are recounted in

Highly reactive dienophiles such as benzynes, dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate, and tetracyanoethene constitute the only consistent exceptions to endo-face attack. See, for example (a) Tornare J-M, Vogel P, Pinkerton AA, Schwarzenbach D (1985) Helv Chim Acta 68: 2195

The non-equivalent extension of the π-orbitals has been proposed to govern the exo-face attack observed in these cases. See Burgess EM, Liotta CL (1981) J Org Chem 46: 1703
Perturbations responsible for small ground state distortions can result in much larger energy differences between competing transion states for reactions. See, for example Bürgi H-B, Dunitz JD (1983) Acc Chem Res 16: 153

Predicting stereoselectivities is still a young science. Indeed, there are several different models for deducing the most favorable mode of attack to a trigonal center.

Several classical valence isomers of the bisisobenzofuran 54 can be drawn, however, this classical biradical representation serves to illustrate both the bisdiene and radicalic behaviour demonstrated by this species.
