Asymmetric synthesis of four diastereomers of 3-hydroxy-2,4,6-trimethylheptanoic acid: proof of configurational assignment.

ABSTRACT: Four unique diastereomers of 3-hydroxy-2,4,6-trimethylheptanoic acid--(2R,3R,4R), (2S,3R,4R), (2S,3R,4S), and (2R,3R,4S)--the fatty acid component of callipeltin A and D, have been synthesized from commercially available (+)- and (-)-pseudoephedrine propionamide in 6 steps and 59% average overall yield. Comparison of the 1H and 13C NMR and optical rotation data of the resulting isomers with the natural fragment unambiguously verifies the configurational assignment of the natural isomer as (2R,3R,4R).

Divergent Asymmetric Total Synthesis of All Four Pestalotin Diastereomers from (R)-Glycidol.

Project description:All four chiral pestalotin diastereomers were synthesized in a straightforward and divergent manner from common (R)-glycidol. Catalytic asymmetric Mukaiyama aldol reactions of readily-available bis(TMSO)diene (Chan's diene) with (S)-2-benzyloxyhexanal derived from (R)-glycidol produced a syn-aldol adduct with high diastereoselectivity and enantioselectivity using a Ti(iOPr)4/(S)-BINOL/LiCl catalyst. Diastereoselective Mukaiyama aldol reactions mediated by catalytic achiral Lewis acids directly produced not only a (1'S,6S)-pyrone precursor via the syn-aldol adduct using TiCl4, but also (1'S,6R)-pyrone precursor via the antialdol adduct using ZrCl4, in a stereocomplementary manner. A Hetero-Diels-Alder reaction of similarly available mono(TMSO)diene (Brassard's diene) with (S)-2-benzyloxyhexanal produced the (1'S,6S)-pyrone precursor promoted by Eu(fod)3 and the (1'S,6R)-pyrone precursor Et2AlCl. Debenzylation of the (1'S,6S)-precursor and the (1'S,6R)-precursor furnished natural (-)-pestalotin (99% ee, 7 steps) and unnatural (+)-epipestalotin (99% ee, 7 steps), respectively. Mitsunobu inversions of the obtained (-)-pestalotin and (+)-epipestalotin successfully produced the unnatural (+)-pestalotin (99% ee, 9 steps) and (-)-epipestalotin (99% ee, 9 steps), respectively, in a divergent manner. All four of the obtained chiral pestalotin diastereomers possessed high chemical and optical purities (optical rotations, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and HPLC measurements).

Total synthesis and configurational assignment of chondramide A.

Project description:The first total synthesis of the cyclodepsipeptide chondramide A (2 b) is described. This depsipeptide is composed of four subunits, namely L-alanine, N-Me-D-tryptophan, 3-amino-2-methoxy-propionic acid (beta-tyrosine derivative), and a 7-hydroxy-alkenoic acid. While the configuration of the stereogenic centers in the 7-hydroxy-alkenoic acid were known, the configuration of the tyrosine derivative required clarification and turned out to be (2S,3R) or (2L,3L), respectively. The synthesis of the 3-amino-2-methoxy-3-arylpropanoic ester 20 b relied on an asymmetric dihydroxylation yielding diol ent-15 a followed by a regioselective Mitsunobu substitution leading to 3-azido-2-hydroxypropanoate 18 b. We could also show that the ester bond in the seco compound 26 b can be fashioned by a Mitsunobu esterification by using hydroxy ester (7S)-7 and the tripeptide acid 25 b. This synthesis should allow for the preparation of various analogues.

Total synthesis and complete configurational assignment of amphirionin-2.

Project description:Amphirionin-2 is a linear polyketide metabolite that exhibits potent and selective cytotoxic activity against certain human cancer cell lines. We disclose herein the first total synthesis of amphirionin-2 and determination of its absolute configuration. Our synthesis featured an extensive use of cobalt-catalyzed Mukaiyama-type cyclization of γ-hydroxy olefins for stereoselective formation of all the tetrahydrofuran rings found in the natural product, and a late-stage Stille-type coupling for convergent assembly of the entire carbon backbone. Four candidate diastereomers of amphirionin-2 were synthesized in a unified, convergent manner, and their spectroscopic/chromatographic properties were compared with those of the authentic material. The present study culminated in the reassignment of the C5/C7 relative configuration, assignment of the C12/C18 relative configuration, and determination of the absolute configuration of amphirionin-2.

Resolving Inflammation: Synthesis, Configurational Assignment, and Biological Evaluations of RvD1n-3?DPA.

Project description:New drugs that can resolve inflammation without immunosuppressive effects are at the medicinal chemistry frontier. Pro-resolving endogenously formed small molecules, that is, the resolvins, are excellent candidates displaying such bioactions. The first total synthesis of the specialized pro-resolving mediator RvD1n-3?DPA has been achieved using the underutilized sp3 -sp3 Negishi cross coupling reaction and an alkyne hydrosilylation-protodesilylation protocol. Biological evaluations revealed that this novel mediator displays low nanomolar pro-resolving properties and potently activates the human DRV1/GPR32 receptor. As such, this endogenous natural product is a lead compound for the development of novel immunoresolvents.

Microgrewiapine C: Asymmetric Synthesis, Spectroscopic Data, and Configuration Assignment.

Project description:The first asymmetric synthesis of microgrewiapine C, a piperidine alkaloid isolated from Microcos paniculata, is reported. This synthesis prompted correction of the 1H and 13C NMR data for the natural sample of the alkaloid, which was achieved by reanalysis of the original spectra. The corrected data for the natural product were found to be identical to those of the synthetic sample prepared herein, thus confirming the structural and relative configurational assignment of microgrewiapine C. Although comparison of specific rotation values indicates that the (1R,2S,3S,6S) absolute configuration should be assigned to the alkaloid, consideration of potential common biosynthetic origins of microgrewiapine C and congeners suggests that further phytochemical investigations are warranted.

Synthesis of antimicrofilament marine macrolides: synthesis and configurational assignment of a C5-C16 degradation fragment of reidispongiolide A.

Project description:Reidispongiolide A is a representative member of the sphinxolide/reidispongiolide group of cytotoxic 26-membered macrolides of marine origin. By interacting with actin in the cell cytoskeleton, the reidispongiolides and sphinxolides are potent microfilament destabilizing agents that represent a promising mechanism of action for developing novel anticancer drugs. An aldol-based synthesis of a library of diastereomers of C(8)-C(16) and C(5)-C(16) fragments and detailed NMR comparison with a reported degradation fragment enabled a configurational assignment for a major part of the reidispongiolide macrocyclic core, thus setting a solid foundation for ongoing synthetic efforts.

Stereoselective Synthesis, Configurational Assignment and Biological Evaluations of the Lipid Mediator RvD2<sub>n-3 DPA</sub>.

Project description:Herein we report the first total synthesis of RvD2n-3 DPA , an endogenously formed mediator biosynthesized from the omega-3 fatty acid n-3 docosapentaenoic acid. The key steps are the Midland Alpine borane reduction, Sonogashira cross-coupling reactions, and a Z-selective alkyne reduction protocol, yielding RvD2n-3 DPA methyl ester in 13 % yield over 12 steps (longest linear sequence). The physical property data (UV chromophore, chromatography and MS/MS fragmentation) of the synthetic lipid mediator matched those obtained from biologically produced material. Moreover, synthetic RvD2n-3 DPA also carried the potent biological activities of enhancing macrophage uptake of Staphylococcus aureus and zymosan A bioparticles.

Asymmetric Chemoenzymatic One-Pot Synthesis of α-Hydroxy Half-Esters.

Project description:A new chemoenzymatic one-pot strategy has been developed for the synthesis of α-hydroxy half-esters containing consecutive quaternary and tertiary stereocenters using asymmetric cascade catalysis. In this study, an asymmetric Ca2+-catalyzed [2,3]-Wittig rearrangement reaction was proven to be suitable for a combination with porcine liver esterase-mediated hydrolysis resulting in the enhanced enantiomeric purity of the obtained products in a one-pot synthesis compared to the stepwise method.

A photoisomerization-coupled asymmetric Stetter reaction: application to the total synthesis of three diastereomers of (-)-cephalimysin A.

Project description:The total synthesis of 8-epi, 8,9-epi, and 9-epi-(-)-cephalimysin A is described. Our catalytic enantioselective synthesis takes advantage of a novel tandem photoisomerization/Stetter reaction. The approach provides rapid access to the desired spirofuranone lactam core in good yield and excellent enantioselectivity. A late stage oxidation strategy allows for flexible access to three of the four diastereomers of cephalimysin A. Access to the epimers provides further support for the correction of the initially proposed relative stereochemistry of cephalimysin A.

Practical asymmetric synthesis of ?-hydroxy ?-amino acids via complimentary aldol reactions.

Project description:Orthogonally protected chiral ?-hydroxy-?-amino acids can be accessed in >100 g quantities from readily available starting materials and reagents in 3-4 steps. These chiral synthons contain two adjacent stereocenters along with suitably protected functional groups (O-TBS, N-Boc) for downstream reactivity. Implementation of two existing aldol technologies allows rapid access to all possible stereoisomers of 1. The guiding principles during reaction optimization were reaction scalability and operational efficiency. Conversion of the amino acids to a variety of chiral building blocks in 1-2 steps demonstrates their synthetic utility.
