Synthesis of Neurotrophic Seco-prezizaane Sesquiterpenes (1R,10S)-2-Oxo-3,4-dehydroneomajucin, (2S)-Hydroxy-3,4-dehydroneomajucin, and (-)-Jiadifenin.

ABSTRACT: An asymmetric approach to the synthesis of neurotrophic seco-prezizaane sesquiterpenes is described that is based on the strategic application of a hydroxyl-directed metallacycle-mediated [2 + 2 + 2] annulation and an intramolecular radical cyclization cascade. Targets prepared are among the most potent members of the natural product class and include (1R,10S)-2-oxo-3,4-dehydroneomajucin, (2S)-hydroxy-3,4-dehydroneomajucin, and (-)-jiadifenin. In addition to representing the first application of the alkoxide-directed metallacycle-mediated hydrindane-forming annulation reaction in natural product synthesis and the first total synthesis of (2S)-hydroxy-3,4-dehydroneomajucin, these pursuits have resulted in the elucidation of a complex radical cascade process for installation of the C5 quaternary center common to the natural product class.

Organometallic enantiomeric scaffolding. A molybdenum-mediated intramolecular nucleophilic ketalization-demetalation cascade. Total synthesis of (+)-(1R,2S,5S,7R)-2-hydroxy-exo-brevicomin.

Project description:TpMo(CO)(2)(5-oxo-eta(3)-pyranyl) scaffolds bearing an internal alkoxide undergo a novel intramolecular nucleophilic ketalization reaction. The anionic intermediate is easily demetalated, rapidly providing the 6,8-dioxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-3-en-2-one framework in moderate to good yields with high enantiopurity. An enantiocontrolled total synthesis of (+)-(1R,2S,5S,7R)-2-hydroxy-exo-brevicomin was accomplished utilizing the reaction sequence.

(2S,3R,4R,5R)-3,4-Dihydr-oxy-5-(hydroxy-meth-yl)pyrrolidine-2-carboxylic acid [(2S,3R,4R,5R)-3,4-dihydr-oxy-5-(hydroxy-meth-yl)proline].

Project description:The crystal structure of the title compound, C(6)H(11)NO(5), establishes the relative configuration at the four stereogenic centres; the absolute configuration is determined by the use of d-glucuronolactone as the starting material for the synthesis. Mol-ecules are linked by inter-molecular O-H?O and N-H?O hydrogen bonds into a three-dimensional network, with each mol-ecule acting as a donor and acceptor for five hydrogen bonds.

3-Cyano-11-oxo-3,4-seco-12a-aza-C-homoolean-4(23)-en-28-oic acid methyl ester.

Project description:The title compound, C(31)H(48)N(2)O(3), is a Beckmann rearrangement product. The isopropenyl and meth-oxy-carbonyl groups have ?-orientations, whereas the 2-cyano-ethyl group has an ?-orientation. In the triterpenoid skeleton, the seven-membered lactam ring, as well as the three six-membered carbocyclic rings, have chair conformations. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked via nonclassical C-H?O hydrogen bonds into layers parallel to the ab plane.

Illicium sesquiterpenes: divergent synthetic strategy and neurotrophic activity studies.

Project description:Majucin-type sesquiterpenes from Illicium sp., such as jiadifenolide (2), jiadifenin (3), and (1R,10S)-2-oxo-3,4-dehydroxyneomajucin (4, ODNM), possess a complex caged chemical architecture and remarkable neurotrophic activities. As such, they represent attractive small-molecule leads against various neurodegenerative diseases. We present an efficient, enantioselective, and unified synthesis of 2, 3, and 4 and designed analogues that diverge from tetracyclic key intermediate 7. The synthesis of 7 is highlighted by the use of an enantioselective Robinson annulation reaction (construction of the AB rings), a Pd-mediated carbomethoxylation reaction (construction of the C ring), and a one-pot oxidative reaction cascade (construction of the D ring). Evaluation of the neurotrophic activity of these compounds led to the identification of several highly potent small molecules that significantly enhanced the activity of nerve growth factor (NGF) in PC-12 cells. Moreover, efforts to define the common pharmacophoric motif suggest that substitution at the C-10 center significantly affects bioactivity, while the hemiketal moiety of 2 and 3 and the C-1 substitution might not be critical to the neurotrophic activity.

(1R,2S)-Methyl 1-(4-chloro-phen-yl)-3-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetra-hydro-cyclo-penta-[b]indole-2-carboxyl-ate 0.2-hydrate.

Project description:The title compound, C(19)H(14)ClNO(3)·0.2H(2)O, crystallizes with five mol-ecules and a disordered water mol-ecule in the asymmetric unit. Four of the five mol-ecules form hydrogen-bonded dimers via N-H?O hydrogen bonds towards another symmetry-independent mol-ecule, whereas the fifth mol-ecule forms a hydrogen-bonded dimer with its symmetry equivalent, also via N-H?O hydrogen bonds. The dihedral angle between the planes of the fused benzene ring and the five-membered ring to which it is attached is 79.45?(13), 49.00?(15), 72.49?(16), 81.91?(18) and 76.38?(16)° for the five mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit.

Synthesis of N-Fmoc-(2S,3S,4R)-3,4-dimethylglutamine: An application of lanthanide-catalyzed transamidation.

Project description:N-Fmoc-(2S,3S,4R)-3,4-dimethylglutamine (6) was synthesized from tert-butyl N-Boc-(2S,3S,4R)-dimethylpyroglutamate (13). This synthesis involved selective deprotection of a Boc group from a lactam nitrogen in the presence of a tert-butyl ester, Fmoc protection of the lactam, and a lanthanide-catalyzed transamidation reaction of the Fmoc-protected lactam, using ammonia and dimethylaluminum chloride. The scope of Lewis acid-catalyzed transamidation of acylated lactams was explored through the variation of lanthanide, lactam, acyl group, amine, and aluminum reagent. The reactivity of various metal triflates was found to vary in the following qualitative order: Yb approximately Sc > Er approximately Eu approximately Sm > Ce approximately Ag(I) > Cu(II) approximately Zn. Intriguingly, catalysis was only observed when ammonia was the nitrogen nucleophile; addition of other amidoaluminum complexes to acyl lactams was found to be insensitive to the addition of lanthanides.

(1R*,2S*)-2-Nitro-1-(4-nitro-phen-yl)propanol.

Project description:The title compound, C(9)H(10)N(2)O(5), presents a racemic mixture of two enanti-omeric diastereomers. In the crystal, mol-ecules assemble into zigzag chains parallel to the b axis [C(6) motif] due to the formation of elongated O-H⋯O(N) hydrogen bonds. Of inter-est is the fact that only the aliphatic nitro group is involved in hydrogen bonding and it adopts a gauche conformation with respect to the OH group.

Steviamine, a new class of indolizidine alkaloid [(1R,2S,3R,5R,8aR)-3-hydroxy-meth-yl-5-methyl-octa-hydro-indolizine-1,2-diol hydro-bromide].

Project description:X-ray crystallographic analysis of the title hydro-bromide salt, C(10)H(20)N(+)·Br(-), of (1R,2S,3R,5R,8aR)-3-hydroxy-meth-yl-5-methyl-octa-hydro-indolizine-1,2-diol defines the absolute and relative stereochemistry at the five chiral centres in steviamine, a new class of polyhydroxy-lated indolizidine alkaloid isolated from Stevia rebaudiana (Asteraceae) leaves. In the crystal structure, mol-ecules are linked by inter-molecular O-H?Br and N-H?Br hydrogen bonds, forming double chains around the twofold screw axes along the b-axis direction. Intra-molecular O-H?O inter-actions occur.
