Biomimetic total synthesis of malbrancheamide and malbrancheamide B.

ABSTRACT: The biomimetic total syntheses of both malbrancheamide and malbrancheamide B are reported. The synthesis of the two monochloro species enabled the structure of malbrancheamide B to be unambiguously assigned. The syntheses each feature an intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction of a 5-hydroxypyrazin-2(1H)-one to construct the bicyclo[2.2.2]diazaoctane core, which has also been proposed as the biosynthetic route to these compounds.

Biomimetic Total Synthesis of Enterocin.

Project description:The first chemical total synthesis of the highly oxygenated polyketide enterocin has been accomplished. The key step of the synthesis was a late-stage biomimetic reaction cascade involving two intramolecular aldol reactions in which each step proceeded in 52 % yield (averaged) and which established four of the seven stereogenic centers. The pivotal precursor for the cascade reaction was assembled from three readily available building blocks. A chiral dithioacetal with two stereogenic centers originating from L-arabinose represented the core fragment to both ends of which the other building blocks were attached by aldol reactions. The remaining stereogenic center was installed by Davis oxygenation immediately prior to the key step.

Convergent and Biomimetic Enantioselective Total Synthesis of (-)-Communesin F.

Project description:The first biomimetic enantioselective total synthesis of (-)-communesin F based on a late-stage heterodimerization and aminal exchange is described. Our synthesis features the expedient diazene-directed assembly of two advanced fragments to secure the congested C3a-C3a' linkage in three steps, followed by a highly efficient biogenetically inspired aminal reorganization to access the heptacyclic communesin core in only two additional steps. Enantioselective syntheses of the two fragments were developed, with highlights including the catalytic asymmetric halocyclization and diastereoselective oxyamination reactions of tryptamine derivatives, a stereoselective sulfinimine allylation, and an efficient cyclotryptamine-C3a-sulfamate synthesis by either a new silver-promoted nucleophilic amination or a rhodium-catalyzed C-H amination protocol. The versatile syntheses of the fragments, their stereocontrolled assembly, and the efficient aminal exchange as supported by in situ monitoring experiments, in addition to the final stage N1'-acylation of the communesin core, provide a highly convergent synthesis of (-)-communesin F.

Biomimetic Total Synthesis of (±)-Griffipavixanthone via a Cationic Cycloaddition-Cyclization Cascade.

Project description:We report the concise, biomimetic total synthesis of the dimeric, Diels-Alder natural product griffipavixanthone from a readily accessible prenylated xanthone monomer. The key step utilizes a novel intermolecular [4+2] cycloaddition-cyclization cascade between a vinyl p-quinone methide and an in situ generated isomeric diene promoted by either Lewis or Brønsted acids. Experimental and computational studies of the reaction pathway suggest that a stepwise, cationic Diels-Alder cycloaddition is operative.

A biomimetic strategy to access the silybins: total synthesis of (-)-isosilybin A.

Project description:We report the first asymmetric, total synthesis of (-)-isosilybin A. A late-stage catalytic biomimetic cyclization of a highly functionalized chalcone is employed to form the characteristic benzopyranone ring. A robust and flexible approach to this chalcone provides an entry to the preparation of the entire isomeric family of silybin natural products.

Biomimetic Total Synthesis and Investigation of the Non-Enzymatic Chemistry of Oxazinin A.

Project description:We report the first total synthesis of an antimycobacterial natural product oxazinin A that takes advantage of a multi-component cascade reaction of anthranilic acid and a precursor polyketide containing an aldehyde. The route utilized for the synthesis of the pseudodimeric oxazinin A validates a previously proposed biosynthetic mechanism, invoking a non-enzymatic pathway to the complex molecule. We found a 76 : 10 : 9 : 5 ratio of oxazinin diastereomers from the synthetic cascade, which is an identical match to that found in the fermentation media from the fungus Eurotiomycetes 110162. Further investigation of the non-enzymatic formation of oxazinin A using 1 H-15 N HMBC NMR spectroscopy allowed for a plausible determination of the stepwise mechanism. The developed route is highly amenable for the synthesis of diverse sets of analogs around the oxazinin scaffold to study structure-activity relationships (SAR).

Biomimetic total synthesis of tricycloillicinone and mechanistic studies toward the rearrangement of prenyl phenyl ethers.

Project description:The paper describes a short and biomimetic synthesis of tricycloillicinone, which was found to enhance the action of choline acetyltransferase (ChAT). The synthetic route has two critical reactions: bulky, oxygenophilic methylaluminum bis(4-bromo-2,6-di-tert-butylphenoxide) (MABR) promoted rearrangement of prenyl phenyl ether and photochemical cyclization. Furthermore, experiments were designed to explore the process of MABR promoted rearrangement. It was found that stereochemistry of deuterium labeled prenyl group was only partially scrambled, which suggests that there may be two possible reaction pathways involved in this process. It also suggests that the direct migration of prenyl group to para-position under these conditions is slightly favored over the Claisen-Cope process. The highly efficient synthetic route also provides important new opportunities to explore the biological behavior of tricycloillicinone.

Biomimetic Total Synthesis and the Biological Evaluation of Natural Product (-)-Fargesone A as a Novel FXR Agonist.

Project description:Farnesoid X receptor (FXR), a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily, plays an important role in maintaining or reversing metabolic homeostasis during the development of liver diseases. However, developing FXR modulators to intervene in FXR-related diseases is still an unmet clinical need. Therefore, it is significant to develop novel small-molecule agonists for drug discovery targeting FXR. Through a high-throughput chemical screen and follow-up biological validations, we first identified the natural product Fargesone A (FA) as a potent and selective FXR agonist. The limited, variable supply of FA from natural product isolation, however, has impeded its biological exploration and potential drug development. Accordingly, we have developed a biomimetic and scalable total synthesis of FA in nine steps that provides a solution to the supply of FA. Enabled by chemical synthesis, the in vivo efficacy of FA has been further investigated. The results showed that FA alleviates hepatocyte lipid accumulation and cell death in an FXR-dependent manner. Moreover, treatment of bile duct ligation (BDL)-induced liver disorder with FA ameliorates pathological features in mice. Therefore, our work lays the foundation to develop new small-molecule FXR agonists as a potential therapy for liver diseases.

Total Synthesis of the Galbulimima Alkaloids Himandravine and GB17 Using Biomimetic Diels-Alder Reactions of Double Diene Precursors.

Project description:The enantioselective total syntheses of himandravine and GB17 were completed through a common biomimetic strategy involving Diels-Alder reactions of unusual double diene containing linear precursors. The double diene precursors, containing or lacking a C12 substituent as required to produce GB17 or himandravine, respectively, were found to undergo Diels-Alder reactions to afford mixtures of regioisomeric cycloadducts that map onto the alternative carbocyclic frameworks of both himandravine and GB17. Computational investigations revealed that these Diels-Alder reactions proceed via transition state structures of similar energy that have a high degree of bispericyclic character and that the low levels of regioselectivity observed in the reactions are a consequence of competing orbital interaction and distortion energies. The combined experimental and computational results provide valuable insights into the biosynthesis of the Galbulimima alkaloids.
