Cytotoxic calanquinone A from Calanthe arisanensis and its first total synthesis.

ABSTRACT: Calanquinone A (1) was isolated from an EtOAc-soluble extract of Calanthe arisanensis through bioassay-guided fractionation. Its structure was identified by spectroscopic methods. Compound 1 showed potent cytotoxicity (EC(50)<0.5microg/mL) against lung (A549), prostate (PC-3 and DU145), colon (HCT-8), breast (MCF7), nasopharyngeal (KB), and vincristine-resistant nasopharyngeal (KB-VIN) cancer cell lines, and interestingly, showed an improved drug resistance profile compared to paclitaxel. The total synthesis of 1 was also achieved and is reported herein.

First total synthesis of protoapigenone and its analogues as potent cytotoxic agents.

Project description:Protoapigenone (1), isolated from Thelypteris torresiana, previously showed significant cytotoxic activity against five human cancer cell lines. In a continued structure-activity relationship study, the first total synthesis and modification of 1 were achieved. All synthesized compounds and related intermediates were evaluated for cytotoxic activity against five human cancer cell lines, HepG2, Hep3B, MDA-MB-231, MCF-7, and A549. Among them, 24 showed 2.2-14.2-fold greater cytotoxicity than 1 and naphthyl A-ring analogues remarkably enhanced the activity.

Cytotoxic phenanthrenequinones and 9,10-dihydrophenanthrenes from Calanthe arisanensis.

Project description:Two new phenanthrenequinones, calanquinones B and C (2 and 3) and four new 9,10-dihydrophenanthrenes, calanhydroquinones A-C (4-6) and calanphenanthrene A (7), along with five known compounds (1 and 8-11), were isolated from an EtOAc-soluble extract of Calanthe arisanensis through bioassay-guided fractionation. Their structures were identified from spectroscopic data, and the compounds were tested for in vitro cytotoxic activity against human lung (A549), prostate (PC-3 and DU145), colon (HCT-8), breast (MCF-7), nasopharyngeal (KB), and vincristine-resistant nasopharyngeal (KBVIN) cancer cell lines. Compound 1 showed the highest potency (EC(50) < 0.5 microg/mL) against all seven cancer cell lines, with the greatest activity against breast cancer MCF-7 cells (EC(50) < 0.02 microg/mL). Generally, except for 7, compounds 2-11 also showed significant cytotoxic activity (EC(50) < 4 microg/mL) against some cell lines (especially PC-3 and MCF-7) in the panel.

First total synthesis of concavine.

Project description:The synthesis of the unusual alkaloid concavine, isolated from Clitocybe concava (Basidiomycetae), has been accomplished. The synthetic route features regio- and stereoselective manipulation of polycyclic imide intermediates via enolate substitution and Grignard addition, along with a key bridge-forming step involving a new method for sulfenylative radical cyclisation. The NMR data for synthetic concavine demonstrate that the original data reported for the natural product refer to the derived acetic acid salt, probably formed as an artefact of isolation or purification.

The first total synthesis of (+/-)-ingenol.

Project description:The first total synthesis of (+/-)-ingenol has been achieved. The key features of the synthesis include the use of a highly diastereoselective Michael reaction to fix the C-11 methyl stereochemistry and the incorporation of the dimethylcyclopropane via diastereoselective carbene addition to the Delta13,14 olefin. The intramolecular dioxenone photoaddition-fragmentation sequence leads to the establishment of the critical C-8/C-10 trans intrabridgehead stereochemistry, a central challenge in the synthesis of ingenanes. The completion of the synthesis proceeds using the C-6alpha hydroxymethyl group as the sole handle for oxidation of seven contiguous carbon centers.

First total synthesis of hoshinoamide A.

Project description:Hoshinoamides A, B and C, linear lipopeptides, were isolated from the marine cyanobacterium Caldora penicillata, with potent antiplasmodial activity against chloroquine-sensitive Plasmodium falciparum. Herein, we describe the first total synthesis of hoshinoamide A by the combination of liquid-phase and solid-phase peptide synthesis. Liquid-phase synthesis is to improve the coupling yield of ʟ-Val3 and N-Me-ᴅ-Phe2. Connecting other amino acids efficiency and convergence is achieved by solid-state synthesis. Our synthetic strategy could synthesize the target peptide in high yield with good purity.

First total synthesis of kipukasin A.

Project description:In this paper, a practical approach for the total synthesis of kipukasin A is presented with 22% overall yield by using tetra-O-acetyl-β-D-ribose as starting material. An improved iodine-promoted acetonide-forming reaction was developed to access 1,2-O-isopropylidene-α-D-ribofuranose. For the first time, ortho-alkynylbenzoate was used as protecting group for the 5-hydoxy group. After subsequent Vorbrüggen glycosylation, the protecting group could be removed smoothly in the presence of 5 mol % Ph3PAuOTf in dichloromethane to provide kipukasin A in high yield and regioselectivity.

First Total Synthesis of Varioxiranol A.

Project description:The paper describes the first total synthesis of natural varioxiranol A by chiral pool approach and confirmation of its absolute configuration by single-crystal X-ray analysis. The target varioxiranol A and its 4-epimer were obtained after 10 steps from single and available chiral source 1,2-O-isopropylidene-d-glyceraldehyde in an overall yield of 10% and 6%, respectively. A synthetic strategy based on the Julia⁻Kocieński coupling reaction between aromatic sulfone and corresponding aldose derivative makes it possible to prepare other interesting polyketide derivatives (varioxiranols B-G, varioxirane, varioxiranediols).

The first total synthesis of sporiolide A.

Project description:The first total synthesis of the natural cytotoxic agent sporiolide A has been accomplished from D-glucal in 16 steps with 6.1% overall yield. Carbohydrates were applied as the chiral templates to manipulate the absolute configuration during the synthesis. Pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC)-promoted transformation of the cyclic enol-ether to lactone, followed by Yamaguchi esterification and intramolecular ring closure metathesis, greatly facilitates synthesis of the target compound.
