Highly convergent total synthesis of (+)-lithospermic acid via a late-stage intermolecular C-H olefination.

ABSTRACT: The total synthesis of (+)-lithospermic acid is reported, which exploits two successive C-H activation reactions as key steps. Rh-catalyzed carbene C-H insertion reaction utilizing Davies's catalyst was used to forge dihydrobenzofuran core, and a late-stage intermolecular C-H olefination coupled the olefin unit with the dihydrobenzofuran core to construct the molecule in a highly convergent manner.

Highly convergent total synthesis of (+)-acutiphycin.

Project description:An enantioselective, convergent, total synthesis of (+)-acutiphycin (18 steps, longest linear sequence from commercial materials) features the first application of an alkynyl ether as a macrolactone precursor in total synthesis, as well as the first example of an intermolecular, SmI2-mediated, Reformatsky fragment coupling reaction. The high convergence, efficiency, and modular nature of this synthesis make it amenable to the synthesis of structurally related compounds.

A Highly Convergent Total Synthesis of Leustroducsin B.

Project description:Leustroducsin B exhibits a large variety of biological activities and unique structural features. An efficient and highly convergent total synthesis of Leustroducsin B was achieved in 17 longest linear and 39 total steps by disconnecting the molecule into three fragments having similar levels of complexity. These pieces were connected via a highly efficient chelate-controlled addition of a vinyl zincate to an α-hydroxy ketone and a silicon-mediated cross-coupling. The stereochemistry of the central and western fragments was set catalytically in high yields and excellent de by a zinc-ProPhenol-catalyzed aldol reaction and a palladium-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation.

Total Synthesis of (-)-Salinosporamide?A via a Late Stage C-H Insertion.

Project description:The synthesis of (-)-salinosporamide?A, a proteasome inhibitor, is described. The synthesis highlights the assembly of a densely decorated pyrrolidinone core via an aza-Payne/hydroamination sequence. Central to the success of the synthesis is a late-stage C-H insertion reaction to functionalize a sterically encumbered secondary carbon. The latter functionalization leads to an enabling transformation where most of the prototypical strategies failed.

Total syntheses of (-)-kopsifoline D and (-)-deoxoapodine: divergent total synthesis via late-stage key strategic bond formation.

Project description:Divergent total syntheses of (-)-kopsifoline D and (-)-deoxoapodine are detailed from a common pentacyclic intermediate 15, enlisting the late-stage formation of two different key strategic bonds (C21-C3 and C21-O-C6) unique to their hexacyclic ring systems that are complementary to its prior use in the total syntheses of kopsinine (C21-C2 bond formation) and (+)-fendleridine (C21-O-C19 bond formation). The combined efforts represent the total syntheses of members of four classes of natural products from a common intermediate functionalized for late-stage formation of four different key strategic bonds uniquely embedded in each natural product core structure. Key to the first reported total synthesis of a kopsifoline that is detailed herein was the development of a transannular enamide alkylation for late-stage formation of the C21-C3 bond with direct introduction of the reactive indolenine C2 oxidation state from a penultimate C21 functionalized Aspidosperma-like pentacyclic intermediate. Central to the assemblage of the underlying Apidosperma skeleton is a powerful intramolecular [4 + 2]/[3 + 2] cycloaddition cascade of a 1,3,4-oxadiazole that provided the functionalized pentacyclic ring system 15 in a single step in which the C3 methyl ester found in the natural products served as a key 1,3,4-oxadiazole substituent, activating it for participation in the initiating Diels-Alder reaction and stabilizing the intermediate 1,3-dipole.

Total synthesis of pumiliotoxins 209F and 251D via late-stage, nickel-catalyzed epoxide-alkyne reductive cyclization.

Project description:Pumiliotoxins 209F and 251D were synthesized using highly selective nickel-catalyzed epoxide-alkyne reductive cyclizations as the final step. The exocyclic (Z)-alkene found in the majority of the pumiliotoxins was formed stereospecifically and regioselectively, without the use of a directing group on the alkyne, and the epoxide underwent ring opening exclusively at the less hindered carbon to provide the requisite tertiary alcohol. The epoxides were prepared using diastereoselective addition of a sulfoxonium anion to a proline-derived methyl ketone.

Highly chemoselective synthesis of hindered amides via cobalt-catalyzed intermolecular oxidative hydroamidation.

Project description:α-Tertiary amides are of great importance for medicinal chemistry. However, they are often challenging to access through conventional methods due to reactivity and chemoselectivity issues. Here, we report a single-step approach towards such amides via cobalt-catalyzed intermolecular oxidative hydroamidation of unactivated alkenes, using nitriles of either solvent- or reagent-quantities. This protocol is selective for terminal alkenes over groups that rapidly react under known carbocation amidation conditions such as tertiary alcohols, electron-rich alkenes, ketals, weak C-H bonds, and carboxylic acids. Straightforward access to a diverse array of hindered amides is demonstrated, including a rapid synthesis of an aminoadamantane-derived pharmaceutical intermediate.

Total synthesis of biseokeaniamides A-C and late-stage electrochemically-enabled peptide analogue synthesis.

Project description:The first total synthesis of cytotoxic cyanobacterial peptide natural products biseokeaniamides A-C is reported employing a robust solid-phase approach to peptide backbone construction followed by coupling of a key thiazole building block. To rapidly access natural product analogues, we have optimized an operationally simple electrochemical oxidative decarboxylation-nucleophilic addition pathway which exploits the reactivity of native C-terminal peptide carboxylates and abrogates the need for building block syntheses. Electrochemically-generated N,O-acetal intermediates are engaged with electron-rich aromatics and organometallic reagents to forge modified amino acids and peptides. The value of this late-stage modification method is highlighted by the expedient and divergent production of bioactive peptide analogues, including compounds which exhibit enhanced cytotoxicity relative to the biseokeaniamide natural products.

Enantioselective Total Synthesis of Nigelladine A via Late-Stage C-H Oxidation Enabled by an Engineered P450 Enzyme.

Project description:An enantioselective total synthesis of the norditerpenoid alkaloid nigelladine A is described. Strategically, the synthesis relies on a late-stage C-H oxidation of an advanced intermediate. While traditional chemical methods failed to deliver the desired outcome, an engineered cytochrome P450 enzyme was employed to effect a chemo- and regioselective allylic C-H oxidation in the presence of four oxidizable positions. The enzyme variant was readily identified from a focused library of three enzymes, allowing for completion of the synthesis without the need for extensive screening.

A convergent total synthesis of ouabagenin.

Project description:A convergent total synthesis of ouabagenin, an aglycon of cardenolide glycoside ouabain, was achieved by assembly of the AB-ring, D-ring and butenolide moieties. The multiply oxygenated cis-decalin structure of the AB-ring was constructed from (R)-perillaldehyde through the Diels-Alder reaction and sequential oxidations. The intermolecular acetal formation of the AB-ring and D-ring fragments, and combination of the intramolecular radical and aldol reactions, assembled the requisite steroidal skeleton in a stereoselective fashion. Finally, stereoselective installation of the C17-butenolide via the Stille coupling and hydrogenation led to ouabagenin.

Total Synthesis and Late-Stage C-H Oxidations of ent-Trachylobane Natural Products.

Project description:Herein, we present our studies to construct seven ent-trachylobane diterpenoids by employing a bioinspired two-phase synthetic strategy. The first phase provided enantioselective and scalable access to five ent-trachylobanes, of which methyl ent-trachyloban-19-oate was produced on a 300 mg scale. During the second phase, chemical C-H oxidation methods were employed to enable selective conversion to two naturally occurring higher functionalized ent-trachylobanes. The formation of regioisomeric analogs, which are currently inaccessible via enzymatic methods, reveals the potential as well as limitations of established chemical C-H oxidation protocols for complex molecule synthesis.
