Total synthesis of apoptolidin A.

ABSTRACT: A highly convergent, enantioselective total synthesis of the potent antitumor agent apoptolidin A has been completed. The key transformations include highly selective glycosylations to attach the C27 disaccharide and the C9 6'-deoxy-l-glucose, a cross-metathesis to incorporate the C1-C10 trienoate unit, and a Yamaguchi macrolactonization to complete the macrocycle. Twelve stereocenters in the polypropionate segments and sugar units were established through diastereoselective chlorotitanium enolate aldol reactions.

Combined chemical and biosynthetic route to access a new apoptolidin congener.

Project description:Glycosylation of a synthetic aglycone using precursor-directed biosynthesis is facilitated by a chemical ketosynthase "knockdown" of the apoptolidin producer Nocardiopsis sp. This synthetic approach facilitated the preparation of an unnatural disaccharide derivative of apoptolidin D that substantially restores cytotoxicity against H292 cells and deconvolutes the role of the decorating sugars in apoptolidin bioactivity.

Correlation of F0F1-ATPase inhibition and antiproliferative activity of apoptolidin analogues.

Project description:[structure: see text] Apoptolidin (1) exhibits potent and highly selective apoptosis inducing activity against sensitive cancer cell lines and is hypothesized to act by inhibition of mitochondrial F(0)F(1)-ATP synthase. A series of apoptolidin derivatives, including a new intermolecular Diels-Alder adduct, were analyzed for antiproliferative activity in E1A-transformed rat fibroblasts. Potent F(0)F(1)-ATPase inhibition was not a sufficient determinant of antiproliferative activity for several analogues, suggesting the existence of a secondary biological target or more complex mode of action for apoptolidin.

Total Synthesis of (+)-Cornexistin.

Project description:Herein, we describe the first total synthesis of (+)-cornexistin as well as its 8-epi-isomer starting from malic acid. The robust and scalable route features a Nozaki-Hiyama-Kishi reaction, an auxiliary-controlled syn-Evans-aldol reaction, and a highly efficient intramolecular alkylation to form the nine-membered carbocycle. The delicate maleic anhydride moiety of the nonadride skeleton was constructed from a ?-keto nitrile. The developed route enabled the synthesis of 165?mg (+)-cornexistin.

Total synthesis of (+)-dactylolide.

Project description:[reaction: see text] The development of an approach leading to the total synthesis of dactylolide is described. The key features of this route include a catalytic asymmetric allylation, a diastereoselective pyran annulation, and a Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons macrocyclization.

Total synthesis of (-)-mucocin.

Project description:[reaction: see text] An enantioselective total synthesis of (-)-mucocin has been completed. A combination of asymmetric glycolate aldol additions and ring closing metathesis reactions were exploited to construct the C18-C34 and C7-C17 fragments. A selective cross-metathesis reaction was employed as the key step to couple two complex fragments.

Total synthesis of brevisamide.

Project description:The second total synthesis of Brevisamide, a marine cyclic ether alkaloid from Karenia brevis, is reported. This streamlined synthesis proceeds in 21 steps, 14 steps longest linear sequence, in 5.2% overall yield and features a key SmI(2) reductive cyclization step to access the tetrasubstituted pyran core.

Total synthesis of (-)-aplaminal.

Project description:The total synthesis and assignment of absolute configuration of (-)-aplaminal ( 1), a cytotoxic metabolite from a sea hare possessing a triazobicyclo[3.2.1]octane skeleton, has been achieved. The synthesis entailed condensation of a monoprotected diamine ( 3) with dimethyl 2-oxomalonate ( 4) to generate the imidazolidine core ( 2). Introduction of the third nitrogen via Mitsunobu activation and azide displacement, followed by reduction and lactam formation (AlMe 3), furnished (-)-aplaminal ( 1). Overall, the synthesis entailed 9 steps and proceeded in 19% overall yield.

Total synthesis of isokidamycin.

Project description:The synthesis of isokidamycin, which represents the first total synthesis of a bis-C-aryl glycoside natural product in the pluramycin family, has been completed. The synthesis features the use of a silicon tether as a disposable regiocontrol element in an intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction between a substituted naphthyne and a glycosyl furan and a subsequent O?C-glycoside rearrangement.

Total synthesis of vinigrol.

Project description:The longstanding challenge posed by the complex diterpene vinigrol has been answered for the first time. The notorious difficulty in synthesizing vinigrol stems from its unprecedented decahydro-1,5-butanonaphthalene ring system, eight contiguous stereocenters, and highly congested functionality. This Communication delineates a stereocontrolled 23-step route to vinigrol that is scalable (>5 g prepared of a late-stage intermediate), minimally reliant on protecting group chemistry, and facilitated by a number of unique and chemoselective transformations.

Total synthesis of brevenal.

Project description:This Article describes the total synthesis of the marine ladder toxin brevenal utilizing a convergent synthetic strategy. Critical to the success of this work was the use of olefinic-ester cyclization reactions and the utilization of glycal epoxides as precursors to C-C and C-H bonds.
