Enantiospecific total synthesis of N-methylwelwitindolinone D isonitrile.

ABSTRACT: The total synthesis of N-methylwelwitindolinone?D isonitrile (1) has been achieved in 17 steps from a readily available carvone derivative. The route features a double C-H functionalization event involving a keto oxindole substrate to introduce the tetrahydrofuran ring of the natural product.

Total synthesis of N-methylwelwitindolinone D isonitrile.

Project description:Described is a concise total synthesis of N-methylwelwitindolinone D isonitrile, the first in a family of complex bicyclo[4.3.1]decane-containing indole alkaloids to yield to synthesis. The complete carbon core of the natural product was assembled rapidly through a Lewis acid-mediated alkylative coupling followed directly by a palladium-catalyzed enolate arylation reaction. The final ring of the pentacycle was introduced by an indole oxidation/cyclization, and the isonitrile was installed through the rearrangement of an aldehyde to an isothiocyanate followed by desulfurization.

Total synthesis of oxidized welwitindolinones and (-)-N-methylwelwitindolinone C isonitrile.

Project description:We report the total synthesis of (-)-N-methylwelwitindolinone C isonitrile, in addition to the total syntheses of the 3-hydroxylated welwitindolinones. Our routes to these elusive natural products feature the strategic use of a deuterium kinetic isotope effect to improve the efficiency of a late-stage nitrene insertion reaction. We also provide a computational prediction for the stereochemical configuration at C3 of the hydroxylated welwitindolinones, which was confirmed by experimental studies.

A unified route to the welwitindolinone alkaloids: total syntheses of (-)-N-methylwelwitindolinone C isothiocyanate, (-)-N-methylwelwitindolinone C isonitrile, and (-)-3-hydroxy-N-methylwelwitindolinone C isothiocyanate.

Project description:As part of a comprehensive strategy to the welwitindolinone alkaloids possessing a bicyclo[4.3.1]decane core, we report herein concise asymmetric total syntheses of (-)-N-methylwelwitindolinone C isothiocyanate (2a), (-)-N-methylwelwitindolinone C isonitrile (2b), and (-)-3-hydroxy-N-methylwelwitindolinone C isothiocyanate (3a) from a common tetracyclic intermediate. The crucial vinyl chloride moiety was installed through electrophilic chlorination of a hydrazone, but only after adjustment of reactivity to circumvent a facile skeletal rearrangement. Selective desulfurization and oxidation of 2a provided access to 2b and 3a, respectively. Notably, this work provides corrected (1)H and (13)C NMR spectral data for 3a.

Total synthesis of (-)-N-methylwelwitindolinone C isothiocyanate.

Project description:We report the first total synthesis of (-)-N-methylwelwitindolinone C isothiocyanate. Our route features a number of key transformations, including an indolyne cyclization to assemble the [4.3.1]-bicyclic scaffold, as well as a late-stage intramolecular nitrene insertion to functionalize the C11 bridgehead carbon en route to the natural product.

Organocatalytic Enantiospecific Total Synthesis of Butenolides.

Project description:Biologically important, chiral natural products of butenolides, (-)-blastmycinolactol, (+)-blastmycinone, (-)-NFX-2, (+)-antimycinone, lipid metabolites, (+)-ancepsenolide, (+)-homoancepsenolide, mosquito larvicidal butenolide and their analogues were synthesized in very good yields in a sequential one-pot manner by using an organocatalytic reductive coupling and palladium-mediated reductive deoxygenation or organocatalytic reductive coupling and silica-mediated reductive deamination as the key steps.

Total synthesis of cyclosporine: access to N-methylated peptides via isonitrile coupling reactions.

Project description:Recent developments in the use of isonitriles to furnish secondary and tertiary amide bond formations have been applied to a novel total synthesis of the important cyclic polypeptide cyclosporine A. Specifically, the disclosed synthetic route demonstrates the utility of microwave-mediated carboxylic acid isonitrile couplings, thioacid isonitrile couplings at ambient temperature, and isonitrile-mediated couplings of carboxylic acids and thioacids with amines to form challenging amide bonds.

The Efficient and Enantiospecific Total Synthesis of Cyclopenta[b]phenanthrenes Structurally-related to Neurosteroids.

Project description:We report an efficient synthesis of cyclopenta[b]phenanthrenes functionalized at C-3 and C-8 from an optically pure Hajos-Parrish ketone. The key step is a neutral alumina catalyzed Michael addition of a Hajos-Parrish ketone derivative (4) to 1,7-octadien-3-one (2) in 98% yield. This Michael addition product went through Krapcho decarbomethoxylation, aldol condensation, lithium liquid ammonia reduction, Wacker oxidation and acid catalyzed cyclization to form cyclopenta[b]phenanthrene (1a) in 37% overall yield for the 7 steps.

Enantiospecific total synthesis of the hapalindoles, fischerindoles, and welwitindolinones via a redox economic approach.

Project description:Full details are provided for the total synthesis of several members of the hapalindole family of natural products, including hapalindole Q, 12-epi-hapalindole D, 12-epi-fischerindole U, 12-epi-fischerindole G, 12-epi-fischerindole I, and welwitindolinone A. Use of the recently developed direct indole coupling enabled an efficient, practical, scalable, and protecting-group-free synthesis of each of these natural products. The original biosynthetic proposal is reviewed, and a revised biosynthetic hypothesis is suggested, validated by the above syntheses. The syntheses are also characterized by an adherence to the concept of "redox economy". Analogous to "atom economy" or "step economy", "redox economy" minimizes the superfluous redox manipulations within a synthesis; rather, the oxidation state of intermediates linearly and steadily increases throughout the course of the synthesis.
