Perylenequinone natural products: enantioselective synthesis of the oxidized pentacyclic core.

ABSTRACT: An enantioselective approach to the perylenequinone core found in the mold perylenequinone natural products is outlined. Specifically, the first asymmetric syntheses of helical chiral perylenequinones absent any additional stereogenic centers are described. Key elements of the synthetic venture include a catalytic enantioselective biaryl coupling, a PIFA-induced naphthalene hydroxylation, and a palladium-mediated aromatic decarboxylation. Transfer of the binaphthalene axial stereochemistry to the perylenequinone helical stereochemistry proceeded with good fidelity. Furthermore, the resultant perylenequinones were shown to possess sufficient atropisomeric stability to be viable intermediates in the biogenesis of the perylenequinone natural products. This stability supports the use of the helical axis as a stereochemical relay in synthesis of the natural products containing additional stereochemical centers.

Perylenequinone natural products: total synthesis of hypocrellin A.

Project description:An efficient and stereoselective total synthesis of the perylenequinone natural product hypocrellin A (1) is described. The key features include a potentially biomimetic 1,8-diketone aldol cyclization to set the centrochiral C7,C7'-stereochemistry, bis(trifluoroacetoxy)iodobenzene mediated oxygenation, a palladium-catalyzed decarboxylation, and an enantioselective catalytic oxidative 2-naphthol coupling to establish the biaryl axial chirality. The helical stereochemistry is formed from an axial chiral intermediate and is then utilized in a dynamic stereochemical transfer to dictate the stereochemistry of the C7,C7'-seven membered ring formed during the aldol cyclization.

Perylenequinone natural products: evolution of the total synthesis of cercosporin.

Project description:The evolution of the first total synthesis of perylenequinone cercosporin is described. The key features developed during these efforts include a biscuprate epoxide alkylation, installation of the methylidene acetal, palladium-catalyzed O-arylation, and C3,C3'-decarbonylation. Due to the rapid atropisomerization of the helical axis of cercosporin (at 37 degrees C), the sequencing of these transformations was critical. To this end, the developed protocol enabled the formation of a key advanced intermediate on preparative scale absent any atropisomerization. Furthermore, the O-arylation proved to be general, and the strategy was used in an improved synthesis of a helical chiral perylenequinone structure.

Short, Enantioselective Total Synthesis of Highly Oxidized Taxanes.

Project description:In the realm of natural product chemistry, few isolates have risen to the level of fame justifiably accorded to Taxol (1) and its chemical siblings. This report describes the most concise route to date for accessing the highly oxidized members of this family. As representative members of taxanes containing five oxygen atoms, decinnamoyltaxinine?E (2) and taxabaccatin?III (3), have succumbed to enantioselective total synthesis for the first time in only 18 steps from a simple olefin starting material. The strategy holistically mimics nature's approach (two-phase synthesis) and features a carefully choreographed sequence of stereoselective oxidations and a remarkable redox-isomerization to set the key trans-diol present in 2 and 3. This work lays the critical groundwork necessary to access even higher oxidized taxanes such as 1 in a more practical fashion, thus empowering a medicinal chemistry campaign that is not wedded to semi-synthesis.

A General Strategy for the Synthesis of Truxinate Natural Products Enabled by Enantioselective [2+2] Photocycloadditions.

Project description:Pseudodimeric cyclobutanes constitute a large class of natural products that could, in principle, be efficiently synthesized via [2+2] photocycloadditions. However, the difficulty in developing chemo-, regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselective cycloadditions has limited their use in asymmetric syntheses. Herein, we show that chiral acid catalysts promote highly selective visible-light photocycloadditions, the products of which can be quickly transformed into truxinate natural products. This general approach has enabled the synthesis of both dimeric and pseudodimeric cyclobutane natural products with excellent enantioselectivity.

Enantioselective Synthesis of Pyrroloindolines via Noncovalent Stabilization of Indole Radical Cations and Applications to the Synthesis of Alkaloid Natural Products.

Project description:While interest in the synthetic chemistry of radical cations continues to grow, controlling enantioselectivity in the reactions of these intermediates remains a challenge. Based on recent insights into the oxidation of tryptophan in enzymatic systems, we report a photocatalytic method for the generation of indole radical cations as hydrogen-bonded adducts with chiral phosphate anions. These noncovalent open-shell complexes can be intercepted by the stable nitroxyl radical TEMPO· to form alkoxyamine-substituted pyrroloindolines with high levels of enantioselectivity. Further elaboration of these optically enriched adducts can be achieved via a catalytic single-electron oxidation/mesolytic cleavage sequence to furnish transient carbocation intermediates that may be intercepted by a wide range of nucleophiles. Taken together, this two-step sequence provides a simple catalytic method to access a wide range of substituted pyrroloindolines in enantioenriched form via a standard experimental protocol from a common synthetic intermediate. The design, development, mechanistic study, and scope of this process are presented, as are applications of this method to the synthesis of several dimeric pyrroloindoline natural products.

Modular Synthesis of the Pentacyclic Core of Batrachotoxin and Select Batrachotoxin Analogue Designs.

Project description:Pentacyclic analogues of the potent voltage-gated sodium ion channel agonist batrachotoxin can be accessed through an intermediate furan by exploiting Diels-Alder cycloaddition reactions with ring-strained dienophiles. The use of 3-bromofuran as a 1,2-dianion equivalent, the application of carbamate reductive N-alkylation for homomorpholine ring assembly, and the demonstration of CsF as an effective reagent for generating benzyne, cyclohexyne, and related dienophiles underscore this work.

Synthesis of the Cortistatin Pentacyclic Core by Alkoxide-Directed Metallacycle-Mediated Annulative Cross-Coupling.

Project description:The pentacyclic core skeleton of the cortistatins has been prepared in a stereoselective fashion by strategic use of an alkoxide-directed metallacycle-mediated annulative cross-coupling. This metal-centered tandem reaction delivers a polyunsaturated hydrindane and establishes the C13 stereodefined quaternary center with high levels of stereocontrol. Subsequent regio- and stereoselective global hydroboration results in the realization of the DE-trans ring fusion and a tertiary alcohol at C8. Establishment of the ABC-tricyclic subunit was then accomplished through phenolic oxidation/trans-acetalization, chemoselective reduction, regioselective cleavage, and intramolecular alkylation at C5.

Multicomponent Domino Reaction in the Asymmetric Synthesis of Cyclopentan[c]pyran Core of Iridoid Natural Products.

Project description:The asymmetric synthesis of a compound with the cyclopentan[c]pyran core of iridoid natural products in four steps and 40% overall yield is reported. Our methodology includes a one-pot tandem domino reaction which provides a trisubstituted cyclopentane with five new completely determined stereocenters, which were determined through 2D homo and heteronuclear NMR and n.O.e. experiments on different compounds specially designed for this purpose, such as a dioxane obtained from a diol. Due to their pharmaceutical properties, including sedative, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, CNS depressor or anti-conceptive effects, this methodology to produce the abovementioned iridoid derivatives, is an interesting strategy in terms of new drug discovery as well as pharmaceutical development.

Perylenequinone natural products: total syntheses of the diastereomers (+)-phleichrome and (+)-calphostin D by assembly of centrochiral and axial chiral fragments.

Project description:The first total synthesis of (+)-calphostin D and the total synthesis of (+)-phleichrome are outlined. The convergent syntheses utilize an enantiopure biaryl common intermediate, which is formed via an enantioselective catalytic biaryl coupling. The established axial chirality is transferred to the perylenequinone helical stereochemistry with good fidelity. Additionally, efforts focused on the installation of the stereogenic C7,C7'-2-hydroxypropyl groups. Three routes were evaluated to establish the C7,C7'-stereochemistry, in which the successful route involved a double epoxide alkylation with a complex axial chiral biscuprate. This strategy not only allowed the synthesis of the unnatural isomers of calphostin D and phleichrome for assessment in biological systems but also provided valuable information for the syntheses of the more complex cercosporin and hypocrellin A.
