Biomimetic Total Syntheses of (-)-Leucoridines?A and C through the Dimerization of (-)-Dihydrovalparicine.

ABSTRACT: Concise biomimetic syntheses of the Strychnos-Strychnos-type bis-indole alkaloids (-)-leucoridine?A (1) and C (2) were accomplished through the biomimetic dimerization of (-)-dihydrovalparicine (3). En?route to 3, the known alkaloids (+)-geissoschizoline (8) and (-)-dehydrogeissoschizoline (10) were also prepared. DFT calculations were employed to elucidate the mechanism, which favors a stepwise aza-Michael/spirocyclization sequence over the alternate hetero-Diels-Alder cycloaddition reaction.

Total Syntheses of (-)-Minovincine and (-)-Aspidofractinine through a Sequence of Cascade Reactions.

Project description:We report 8-step syntheses of (-)-minovincine and (-)-aspidofractinine using easily available and inexpensive reagents and catalyst. A key element of the strategy was the utilization of a sequence of cascade reactions to rapidly construct the penta- and hexacyclic frameworks. These cascade transformations included organocatalytic Michael-aldol condensation, a multistep anionic Michael-SN 2 cascade reaction, and Mannich reaction interrupted Fischer indolization. To streamline the synthetic routes, we also investigated the deliberate use of steric effect to secure various chemo- and regioselective transformations.

Meroterpenoid Synthesis via Sequential Polyketide Aromatization and Radical Anion Cascade Triene Cyclization: Biomimetic Total Syntheses of Austalide Natural Products.

Project description:The first total synthesis of five austalide natural products, (±)-17 S-dihydroaustalide K, (±)-austalide K, (±)-13-deacetoxyaustalide I, (±)-austalide P, and (±)-13-deoxyaustalide Q acid, was accomplished via a series of biomimetic transformations. Key steps involved polyketide aromatization of a trans, trans-farnesol-derived ?,?-diketodioxinone into the corresponding ?-resorcylate, followed by titanium(III)-mediated reductive radical cyclization of an epoxide to furnish the drimene core. Subsequent phenylselenonium ion induced diastereoselective cyclization of the drimene completed the essential carbon framework of the austalides to access (±)-17 S-dihydroaustalide K, (±)-austalide K, and (±)-13-deacetoxyaustalide I via sequential oxidations. Furthermore, (±)-13-deacetoxyaustalide I could serve as a common intermediate to be derivatized into other related natural products, (±)-austalide P and (±)-13-deoxyaustalide Q acid, by functionalizing the cyclic lactone moiety.

Total syntheses of (+)- and (-)-peribysin E.

Project description:A convergent, stereocontrolled route to either antipode of the cell adhesion inhibitor, peribysin E, has been achieved from carvone. Highlights of the synthesis include a Diels-Alder reaction to generate a cis-decalin framework, followed by semipinacol-type ring contraction to secure the stereochemistry of the C7 quaternary center. Potential mechanistic pathways for the critical ring contraction were studied through deuterium incorporation studies. In addition, an optimized olefin isomerization/Saegusa oxidation protocol is described for the conversion of [4+2] cycloadducts of 2-(trialkylsilyloxy)-1,3-dienes to 1,6(2H,7H)-naphthalenediones, having stereochemical arrangements not accessible via conventional Robinson annulation protocols. Finally, the ability to independently prepare either enantiomer of peribysin E from the corresponding antipode of carvone led to a reassignment of the absolute configuration of peribysin E.

Enantioselective formal total syntheses of didehydrostemofoline and isodidehydrostemofoline through a catalytic dipolar cycloaddition cascade.

Project description:Sweet to the core: Enantioselective formal total syntheses of the title compounds were accomplished in 24 steps from 2-deoxy-D-ribose. The synthesis features a novel cascade of reactions culminating in an intramolecular dipolar cycloaddition to form the tricyclic core of the stemofoline alkaloids from an acyclic diazo imine intermediate.

Total syntheses of (+/-)-platencin and (-)-platencin.

Project description:The secondary metabolites platensimycin and platencin, isolated from the bacterial strain Streptomyces platensis, represent a novel class of natural products exhibiting unique and potent antibacterial activity. Platencin, though structurally similar to platensimycin, has been found to operate through a slightly different mechanism of action involving the dual inhibition of lipid elongation enzymes FabF and FabH. Both natural products exhibit strong, broad-spectrum, gram-positive antibacterial activity to key antibiotic resistant strains, including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, vancomycin-intermediate S. aureus, and vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium. Described herein are our synthetic efforts toward platencin, culminating in both racemic and asymmetric preparation of the natural product. The syntheses demonstrate the power of the cobalt-catalyzed asymmetric Diels-Alder reaction and the one-pot reductive rearrangement of [3.2.1] bicyclic ketones to [2.2.2] bicyclic olefins.

Total syntheses of kealiinines A-C.

Project description:Short total syntheses of the Leucetta-derived alkaloids, kealiinines A-C, have been accomplished using an intramolecular Friedel-Crafts-dehydration sequence of a bis benzylic diol. The precursor diol was obtained through a series of position-specific Grignard reactions from 1-methyl-4,5-diiodoimidazole. C2-Azidation and hydrogenation of the azide then provided the reported structures of kealiinines A-C. While the (1)H NMR data did not completely match for these materials, the HPLC data were consistent with the assigned structure of these alkaloids.

Total and Formal Syntheses of Fostriecin.

Project description:Two formal syntheses and one total synthesis of fostriecin (1) have been achieved, as well as, the synthesis of its related congener dihydro-dephospho-fostriecin. All the routes use the Sharpless dihydroxylation to set the absolute stereochemistry at C-8/9 positions and a Leighton allylation to set the C-5 position of the natural product. In the formal syntheses a Noyori transfer hydrogenation of an ynone was used to set the C-11 position while the total synthesis employed a combination of asymmetric dihydroxylation and Pd-π-allyl reduction to set the C-11 position. Finally in the total synthesis, a trans-hydroboration of the C-12/13 alkyne was used in combination with a Suzuki cross coupling to establish the Z,Z,E-triene of fostriecin (1).

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.

Total Syntheses of the Reported Structures of Curcusones?I and J through Tandem Gold Catalysis.

Project description:Total syntheses of the reported structures of the rhamnofolane diterpene natural products curcusones?I and J in racemic form were achieved. The synthetic strategy features a novel tandem gold-catalyzed furan formation and furan-allene [4+3] cycloaddition to build the 5,7-fused ring system with an oxa-bridge in one step, and a stereoselective exo-Diels-Alder reaction to form the 6-membered ring. The newly developed tandem gold catalysis is quite general and can be scaled up. Our syntheses suggest that structural revisions of curcusones?I and J are needed.
