Enantioselective Synthesis of the Tricyclic Core of FR901483 Featuring a Rh-Catalyzed [2+2+2] Cycloaddition.


ABSTRACT: An efficient approach to the tricyclic framework of FR901483 is described. The sequence features a [3, 3]-sigmatropic rearrangement of a cyanate into an isocyanate, followed by its subsequent asymmetric rhodium-catalyzed [2+2+2] cycloaddition with a terminal alkyne for the synthesis of the indolizidine core. The aza-tricyclic core is completed using an intramolecular benzoin reaction to close the last ring of the natural product. Through a model study of the key cycloaddition, we evaluated the impact of different substituents on the tether of the alkenyl isocyanate.
