Total synthesis of (+)-sieboldine a: evolution of a pinacol-terminated cyclization strategy.

ABSTRACT: This article describes synthetic studies that culminated in the first total synthesis of the Lycopodium alkaloid sieboldine A. During this study, a number of pinacol-terminated cationic cyclizations were examined to form the cis-hydrindanone core of sieboldine A. Of these, a mild Au(I)-promoted 1,6-enyne cyclization that was terminated by a semipinacol rearrangement proved to be most efficient. Fashioning the unprecedented N-hydroxyazacyclononane ring embedded within the bicyclo[5.2.1]decane-N,O-acetal moiety of sieboldine A was a formidable challenge. Ultimately, the enantioselective total synthesis of (+)-sieboldine A was completed by forming this ring in good yield by cyclization of a protected-hydroxylamine thioglycoside precursor.

Total Synthesis of Potent Antitumor Macrolide, (-)-Zampanolide: An Oxidative Intramolecular Cyclization-Based Strategy.

Project description:A detailed account of the enantioselective total synthesis of (-)-zampanolide, a macrolide marine natural product with high anti-cancer activity is described. For synthesis of the 4-methylene tetrahydropyran unit of (-)-zampanolide, initially, we relied upon an oxidative C-H activation of an alkenyl ether and intramolecular cyclization to provide the substituted tetrahydropyran ring. However, this strategy was unsuccessful. Subsequently, we found that a cinnamyl ether is critical for the successful oxidative intramolecular cyclization reaction. The synthesis also features a cross metathesis reaction to construct a tri-substituted olefin, a ring-closing metathesis to form a highly functionalized macrolactone and a chiral phosphoric acid promoted N-acyl aminal formation to furnish (-)-zampanolide stereoselectively and in good yield. The synthetic (-)-zampanolide had effects on cultured cells and on tubulin assembly consistent with properties reported for the natural product.

Evolution of a Strategy for the Total Synthesis of (+)-Cornexistin.

Project description:Herein is given a full account of the evolution of the first total synthesis of (+)-cornexistin. Initial efforts were based on masking the reactive maleic anhydride moiety as a 3,4-substituted furan and on forming the nine-membered carbocycle in an intramolecular Conia-ene or Nozaki-Hiyama-Kishi (NHK) reaction. Those strategies suffered from low yields and were jeopardized by a late-stage installation of the Z-alkene, as well as the stereocenters along the eastern periphery. These issues were addressed by employing a chiral-pool strategy that involved construction of the crucial stereocenters at C2, C3 and C8 at an early stage with installation of the maleic anhydride as late as possible. The successful approach featured an intermolecular NHK coupling to install the Z-alkene, a syn-Evans-aldol reaction to forge the stereocenters along the eastern periphery, an intramolecular allylic alkylation to close the nine-membered carbocycle, and a challenging stepwise hydrolysis of a β-keto nitrile to furnish the maleic anhydride.

Evolution of a Strategy for the Enantioselective Total Synthesis of (+)-Psiguadial B.

Project description:(+)-Psiguadial B is a diformyl phloroglucinol meroterpenoid that exhibits antiproliferative activity against the HepG2 human hepatoma cancer cell line. This full account details the evolution of a strategy that culminated in the first enantioselective total synthesis of (+)-psiguadial B. A key feature of the synthesis is the construction of the trans-cyclobutane motif by a Wolff rearrangement with in situ catalytic, asymmetric trapping of the ketene. An investigation of the substrate scope of this method to prepare enantioenriched 8-aminoquinolinamides is disclosed. Three routes toward (+)-psiguadial B were evaluated that featured the following key steps: (1) an ortho-quinone methide hetero-Diels-Alder cycloaddition to prepare the chroman framework, (2) a Prins cyclization to form the bridging bicyclo[4.3.1]decane system, and (3) a modified Norrish-Yang cyclization to generate the chroman. Ultimately, the successful strategy employed a ring-closing metathesis to form the seven-membered ring and an intramolecular O-arylation reaction to complete the polycyclic framework of the natural product.

Total synthesis of (±)-rocaglamide via oxidation-initiated Nazarov cyclization.

Project description:This article describes the evolution of a Nazarov cyclization-based synthetic strategy targeting the anticancer, antiinflammatory, and insecticidal natural product (±)-rocaglamide. Initial pursuit of a polarized heteroaromatic Nazarov cyclization to construct the congested cyclopentane core revealed an unanticipated electronic bias in the pentadienyl cation. This reactivity was harnessed in a successful second-generation approach using an oxidation-initiated Nazarov cyclization of a heteroaryl alkoxyallene. Full details of these two approaches are given, as well as the characterization of undesired reaction pathways available to the Nazarov cyclization product. A sequence of experiments that led to an understanding of the unexpected reactivity of this key intermediate is described, which culminated in the successful total synthesis of (+)-rocaglamide.

Evolution of a strategy for total synthesis of the marine fungal alkaloid (+/-)-communesin F.

Project description:A new synthetic strategy for construction of the heptacyclic marine fungal alkaloid (+/-)-communesin F has been devised. Key reactions include an intramolecular Heck cyclization of a tetrasubstituted alkene to generate a tetracyclic enamide bearing one of the quaternary carbon centers (C7) of the alkaloid, an intramolecular reductive cyclization of an N-Boc aniline onto the oxindole moiety to form a pentacyclic framework containing the southern aminal, a stereoselective N-Boc-lactam enolate C-allylation to introduce the second quaternary carbon center (C8), and an azide reduction/N-Boc-lactam-opening cascade leading to the northern aminal.

Total synthesis of viridicatumtoxin B and analogues thereof: strategy evolution, structural revision, and biological evaluation.

Project description:The details of the total synthesis of viridicatumtoxin B (1) are described. Initial synthetic strategies toward this intriguing tetracycline antibiotic resulted in the development of key alkylation and Lewis acid-mediated spirocyclization reactions to form the hindered EF spirojunction, as well as Michael-Dieckmann reactions to set the A and C rings. The use of an aromatic A-ring substrate, however, was found to be unsuitable for the introduction of the requisite hydroxyl groups at carbons 4a and 12a. Applying these previous tactics, we developed stepwise approaches to oxidize carbons 12a and 4a based on enol- and enolate-based oxidations, respectively, the latter of which was accomplished after systematic investigations that revealed critical reactivity patterns. The herein described synthetic strategy resulted in the total synthesis of viridicatumtoxin B (1), which, in turn, formed the basis for the revision of its originally assigned structure. The developed chemistry facilitated the synthesis of a series of viridicatumtoxin analogues, which were evaluated against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains, including drug-resistant pathogens, revealing the first structure-activity relationships within this structural type.

Formal synthesis of (-)-agelastatin A: an iron(II)-mediated cyclization strategy.

Project description:An iron(II)-mediated aminohalogenation of a cyclopentenyl N-tosyloxycarbamate provided new access to the key intermediate for the synthesis of (-)-agelastatin A (AA, 1), a potent antiproliferative alkaloid. The present synthetic endeavour offered an insight into the mechanism underlying the iron(II)-mediated aminohalogenation of N-tosyloxycarbamate, in which the radical properties of the N-iron intermediates in the redox states were operative.
