Formal synthesis of (+/-)-platensimycin.

ABSTRACT: [reaction: see text] Reductive alkylation of 5-methoxy-1-tetralone (6) with 2,3-dibromopropene gave an equilibrium mixture of bicyclic diones 7 (51%) and 8 (35%). Radical cyclization of 7 afforded tricyclic dione 5 (84%), which was reduced, cyclized, and dehydrated to give tetracyclic alkene 13 in 63% yield. Allylic oxidation of 13 with SeO2 and activated MnO2 afforded enone 2 in 85% yield, thereby completing a short formal synthesis of (+/-)-platensimycin.

Total synthesis of (-)-platensimycin, a novel antibacterial agent.

Project description:An enantioselective synthesis of platensimycin, a novel antibiotic natural product that inhibits bacterial beta-ketoacyl-(acyl-carrier-protein) synthase (FabF), is described. Our synthetic strategy for the construction of the oxatetracyclic core involved an intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction. Our preliminary studies provided a complex tetracyclic product by first undergoing an interesting 1,5-hydride shift followed by a Diels-Alder reaction. Further optimization of the diene's electronic properties, by incorporation of a methoxy group, led to the oxatetracyclic core of platensimycin. The three required chiral centers, including two all-carbon quaternary chiral centers, were built in the intramolecular Diels-Alder step. The synthesis utilized natural (+)-carvone as the key chiral starting material, which determined the stereochemistry of the final product. The synthesis also featured an efficient Petasis olefination, a hydroboration sequence, a Gais's asymmetric Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons reaction, and a mercury salt catalyzed enol ether isomerization.

In vivo instability of platensimycin and platencin: Synthesis and biological evaluation of urea- and carbamate-platensimycin.

Project description:Platensimycin (PTM) and platencin (PTN), two natural products and promising drug leads that target bacterial and mammalian fatty acid synthases, are known to have unfavorable pharmacokinetic properties. It is not clear, however, what the metabolic fates of PTM and PTN are and no efforts have been reported to address this key roadblock in the development of these compounds as viable drug options. Here we describe the pharmacokinetics of PTM and PTN, and reveal rapid renal clearance as the primary metabolic liability with three additional sites of chemical liability: (i) amide hydrolysis, (ii) glucuronidation, and (iii) oxidation. We determined that hydrolysis is a viable clearance mechanism in vivo and synthesized two PTM analogues to address in vivo hydrolysis. Urea- and carbamate-PTM analogues showed no detectable hydrolysis in vivo, at the expense of antibacterial activity, with no further improvement in systemic exposure. The antibacterial sulfur-containing analogues PTM D1 and PTM ML14 showed significant decreases in renal clearance. These studies set the stage for continued generation of PTM and PTN analogues in an effort to improve their pharmacokinetics while retaining or improving their biological activities.

Total synthesis of platensimycin and related natural products.

Project description:Platensimycin is the flagship member of a new and growing class of antibiotics with promising antibacterial properties against drug-resistant bacteria. The total syntheses of platensimycin and its congeners, platensimycins B(1) and B(3), platensic acid, methyl platensinoate, platensimide A, homoplatensimide A, and homoplatensimide A methyl ester, are described. The convergent strategy developed toward these target molecules involved construction of their cage-like core followed by attachment of the various side chains through amide bond formation. In addition to a racemic synthesis, two asymmetric routes to the core structure are described: one exploiting a rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric cycloisomerization, and another employing a hypervalent iodine-mediated de-aromatizing cyclization of an enantiopure substrate. The final two bonds of the core structure were forged through a samarium diiodide-mediated ketyl radical cyclization and an acid-catalyzed etherification. The rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric reaction involving a terminal acetylene was developed as a general method for the asymmetric cycloisomerization of terminal enynes.

Formal synthesis of (+/-)-roseophilin.

Project description:A formal synthesis of (+/-)-roseophilin is described. Scandium(III)-catalyzed Nazarov cyclization of 2,5-disubstituted N-tosylpyrrole 19 gives a 5,5'-fused ketopyrrole, and ansa-bridge formation via pi-allyl palladium macrocyclization gives 21.

Formal synthesis of (+)-sorangicin A.

Project description:The formal synthesis of (+)-sorangicin A was completed by two independent routes. Both approaches feature a cross metathesis reaction to form the C29-C30 bond to arrive at the bicyclic ether/tetrahydropyran fragment. Formation of the C15-C16 olefin to unite the dihydropyran fragment with the rest of the molecule was achieved by either a cross metathesis reaction or a Julia-Kocienski olefination.

Project description:A ring fragmentation and intramolecular azomethine ylide 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition sequence of reactions was successfully used in the preparation of a known (±)-cycloclavine precursor in good overall yield.

Formal total synthesis of (±)-cortistatin A.

Project description:A second-generation synthesis of the pentacyclic core of the cortistatins, a family of rearranged steroidal alkaloids that have recently attracted much attention, is reported. The improved sequence provides access to significant quantities of this key compound, which enabled a formal total synthesis of (±)-cortistatin A by conversion to the key Nicolaou/Hirama dienone. It is anticipated that this new, robust route to the pentacyclic core will facilitate the total synthesis of a range of natural products in the cortistatin family, as well as the construction of key structural analogs to probe the promising biological activity of these important compounds.

Formal synthesis of 6-deoxyerythronolide B.

Project description:[reaction: see text] The enantioselective synthesis of the carbon skeleton of 6-deoxyerythronolide B has been achieved in 23 linear steps from propionaldehyde. The synthesis relies on an iterative approach employing an asymmetric acyl-thiazolidinethione propionate aldol reaction to establish eight of nine stereogenic centers. The remaining stereogenic center at C6 was set through a Myers alkylation employing a complex alkyl iodide.

Metal-free formal synthesis of phenoxazine.

Project description:A transition metal-free formal synthesis of phenoxazine is presented. The key step of the sequence is a high-yielding O-arylation of a phenol with an unsymmetrical diaryliodonium salt to provide an ortho-disubstituted diaryl ether. This species was cyclized to acetylphenoxazine in moderate yield. The overall yield in the three-step sequence is 72% based on recovered diaryl ether. An interesting, unusually stable iodine(III) intermediate in the O-arylation was observed by NMR and could be converted to the product upon longer reaction time.
