Progress toward the total synthesis of frondosin C.

Project description:A straightforward approach toward the total synthesis of frondosin C is described. This strategy involves a key one-pot, microwave-assisted 5-exo cyclization-Claisen rearrangement sequence that was used for the expedient assembly of the frondosic C scaffold. Subsequent manipulation of the tetracyclic core allowed the synthesis of an advanced intermediate bearing the characteristic diene moiety in the B ring. [reaction: see text]

Progress toward the total synthesis of psymberin/irciniastatin A.

Project description:In this paper, we describe our synthesis of four key building blocks for the total synthesis of psymberin (1) and its C4 epimer (2). Despite early difficulties in processing material to the advanced intermediate stage, we have been successful in developing high-yielding syntheses for the pyran core, natural side chain, 4-epi side chain, and aryl fragments of the molecule. Our findings from the optimization process are presented herein.

Studies toward the first stereoselective total synthesis of (±)-quinolizidine 195C and other transformations.

Project description:Starting from a thio-substituted 4-quinolizidinone, a series of C-6 alkylated derivatives with a trans C-6, C-9a relationship was synthesized. Further transformations led to the first stereoselective total synthesis of the structure proposed for (±)-quinolizidine 195C, the major alkaloid isolated from the skin extracts of the Madagascan frog Mantella betsileo. Since the spectral data of the synthetic and natural products differed significantly, the true structure of (±)-quinolizidine 195C remains uncertain.

Stereoselective total synthesis of (-)-cleistenolide.

Project description:A facile stereoselective total synthesis of cleistenolide (1) from the natural chiral template d-arabinose has been achieved in eight steps and 49% overall yield, employing key steps including Wittig olefination, selective 1,3-trans-acetal formation, and modified Yamaguchi esterification.

Progress toward the Total Synthesis of Jogyamycin Using a Tandem Ichikawa/Winstein Rearrangement.

Project description:Jogyamycin is a densely functionalized aminocyclopentitol that displays potent antiprotozoal activity. Herein, we report a route toward this natural product that utilizes an unprecedented transformation involving a tandem Ichikawa-Winstein rearrangement to install the C-1/C-2 diamine core. Attempts to further functionalize the C-3/C-4 alkene en route to jogyamycin are also discussed.

Studies Directed toward the Stereoselective Synthesis of Cytospolide E.

Project description:Our exhaustive effort toward the total synthesis of cytotoxic marine nonanolide cytospolide E has been detailed. To achieve this synthesis, we have explored both the ring-closing metathesis and lactonization-based macrocyclization strategies using a variety of precursors. Unfortunately, none of them provided the desired product. The ring-closing metathesis approach provided mainly the macrocycle with Z-olefin, whereas the macrolactonization strategy culminated in 8-epi-9-epi-cytospolide E following the regioselective formation of a 10-membered macrocycle over a 9-membered macrocycle.

Evolution of a Unified Strategy for Complex Sesterterpenoids: Progress toward Astellatol and the Total Synthesis of (-)-Nitidasin.

Project description:Astellatol and nitidasin belong to a subset of sesterterpenoids that share a sterically encumbered trans-hydrindane motif with an isopropyl substituent. In addition, these natural products feature intriguing polycyclic ring systems, posing significant challenges for chemical synthesis. Herein, the evolution of our stereoselective strategy for isopropyl trans-hydrindane sesterterpenoids is detailed. These endeavors included the synthesis of several building blocks, enabling studies toward all molecules of this terpenoid subclass, and of advanced intermediates of our initial route toward a biomimetic synthesis of astellatol. These findings provided the basis for a second-generation and a third-generation approach toward astellatol that eventually culminated in the enantioselective total synthesis of (-)-nitidasin. In particular, a series of substrate-controlled transformations to install the ten stereogenic centers of the target molecule was orchestrated and the carbocyclic backbone was forged in a convergent fashion. Furthermore, the progress toward the synthesis of astellatol is disclosed and insights into some observed yet unexpected diastereoselectivities by detailed quantum-mechanical calculations are provided.

Progress toward a Convergent, Asymmetric Synthesis of Jervine.

Project description:Progress toward a convergent approach for the enantioselective synthesis of the Veratrum alkaloid jervine is presented. The two requisite fragments were stereoselectively and efficiently fashioned from economical and readily available reagents. Key reactions include (a) a highly diastereoselective Ireland-Claisen rearrangement to establish the necessary cis-relationship between the amine and methyl group on the tetrahydrofuran E-ring; (b) a diastereoselective selenoetherification reaction that enabled the assembly of the D/E oxaspiro[4.5]decene in the needed configuration; and (c) an enzymatic desymmetrization of an abundant achiral diol en route to a key four-carbon building block as a practical alternative to a protected Roche ester reduction.

Progress toward the De Novo Asymmetric Synthesis of Euphanes.

Project description:Progress toward an asymmetric synthesis of euphanes is described. A C14-desmethyl euphane system possessing five differentially substituted and electronically distinct alkenes has been prepared. The route employed is based on sequential metallacycle-mediated annulative cross-coupling, double asymmetric Brønsted acid mediated intramolecular Friedel-Crafts alkylation, and an oxidative rearrangement to establish the requisite C10 quaternary center. These studies have also led to the discovery of a novel euphane-based modulator of the Liver X Receptor.
