Total synthesis of phomactin A.

ABSTRACT: A total synthesis of (+/-)-phomactin A is described to highlight the final completion of a complex natural product target that had commenced with an intramolecular oxa-[3 + 3] annulation strategy in the construction of the ABD-tricycle. These efforts reveal structural intricacies of this ABD-tricycle with an illustrative example being the conformational analysis that was ultimately critical for the C5a-homolgation.

Total synthesis of (±)-phomactin A. Lessons learned from respecting a challenging structural topology.

Project description:Our struggles and ultimate success in achieving a total synthesis of phomactin A are described. Our strategy features an intramolecular oxa-[3 + 3] annulation to construct its unique ABD-tricyclic manifold. Although the synthesis would constitute a distinctly new approach with the 12-membered D-ring of phomactin A being assembled simultaneously with the 1-oxadecalin at an early stage, the ABD-tricycle represents a unique structural topology that would pose a number of unprecedented challenges. One challenge concerned elaborating this tricycle to have oxygenation at the proper carbon atoms. To overcome this, we would utilize a Kornblum-DeLaMare ring-opening of a peroxide bridge as well as a challenging late-stage 1,3-allylic alcohol transposition. Further, the structural intricacies of the ABD-tricycle were uncovered by a conformational analysis that would be critical for the C5a-homologation.

Studies toward the synthesis of phomactin A. An approach to the macrocyclic core.

Project description:An approach to the macrocyclic core of phomactin A is described. Central to this strategy is the use of a cis-fused oxadecalin intermediate, prepared using the dihydropyrone Diels-Alder reaction. The conformational bias inherent to this system is then used to facilitate macrocycle formation via an intramolecular B-alkyl Suzuki coupling.

Cascade cyclizations of acyclic and macrocyclic alkynones: studies toward the synthesis of phomactin A.

Project description:A study of the reactivity and diastereoselectivity of the Lewis acid promoted cascade cyclizations of both acyclic and macrocyclic alkynones is described. In these reactions, a ?-iodoallenolate intermediate is generated via conjugate addition of iodide to an alkynone followed by an intramolecular aldol reaction with a tethered aldehyde to afford a cyclohexenyl alcohol. The Lewis acid magnesium iodide (MgI2) was found to promote irreversible ring closure, while cyclizations using BF3·OEt2 as promoter occurred reversibly. For both acyclic and macrocyclic alkynones, high diastereoselectivity was observed in the intramolecular aldol reaction. The MgI2 protocol for cyclization was applied to the synthesis of advanced intermediates relevant to the synthesis of phomactin natural products, during which a novel transannular cation-olefin cyclization was observed. DFT calculations were conducted to analyze the mechanism of this unusual MgI2-promoted process.

A macrocyclic β-iodoallenolate intermediate is key: synthesis of the ABD core of phomactin A.

Project description:An enantioselective strategy for the synthesis of phomactin natural products is described. The Lewis acid triggered cyclization of a β-iodoallenolate embedded in a 12-membered macrocycle was used to obtain a highly functionalized bicyclo[9.3.1]pentadecane in good yield and high diastereoselectivity. This iodoenone contains the substituents of the AD ring system of the phomactin family of natural products, appropriate for further functionalization. Synthesis of the oxadecalin core of phomactin A from the AD iodoenone intermediate was achieved. In this unusual strategy, rings A and B are both fashioned within a macrocyclic precursor.

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 (-)-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.
