Construction of the Pentacyclic Core and Formal Total Synthesis of (rac)-Renieramycin?T.

ABSTRACT: A formal total synthesis of the antitumor marine natural product (rac)-renieramycin?T, which possesses a characteristic ecteinascidin-type A?ring in the renieramycin-saframycin core skeleton, was elaborated. The key steps in the synthesis of (rac)-renieramycin?T are a modified Pictet-Spengler cyclization of dialkylated oxomalonate derivatives and decarboxylation via a monocarboxylic acid derivative followed by stereocontrolled protonation of the enol intermediate. A key intermediate in our previous synthesis of renieramycin?T was used, and the formal synthesis was accomplished in 21?steps from a known piperazine-2,5-dione derivative.

Synthetic studies on Et-743. Assembly of the pentacyclic core and a formal total synthesis.

Project description:A formal total synthesis of the potent anticancer agent Et-743 is described. The tetrahydroisoquinoline core is stereoselectively constructed using a novel radical cyclization of a glyoxalimine. Further elaboration of this core rapidly accessed the pentacyclic core of Et-743, but a mixture of regiosisomers was obtained in the key Pictet-Spengler ring closure. A known advanced intermediate in the synthesis of Et-743 was intercepted, constituting a formal synthesis of the molecule.

Formal and total synthesis of (±)-cycloclavine.

Project description:A ring fragmentation and intramolecular azomethine ylide 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition sequence of reactions was successfully used in the preparation of a known (±)-cycloclavine precursor in good overall yield. Results of efforts to incorporate the tetrasubstituted cyclopropane ring present in cycloclavine are also discussed.

Formal total synthesis of (±)-cortistatin A.

Project description:A second-generation synthesis of the pentacyclic core of the cortistatins, a family of rearranged steroidal alkaloids that have recently attracted much attention, is reported. The improved sequence provides access to significant quantities of this key compound, which enabled a formal total synthesis of (±)-cortistatin A by conversion to the key Nicolaou/Hirama dienone. It is anticipated that this new, robust route to the pentacyclic core will facilitate the total synthesis of a range of natural products in the cortistatin family, as well as the construction of key structural analogs to probe the promising biological activity of these important compounds.

Enantioselective formal total synthesis of (+)-aspergillide C.

Project description:An enantioselective formal total synthesis of the cytotoxic macrolide (+)-aspergillide C has been accomplished from (S)-(-)-glyceraldehyde acetonide and the Danishefsky-Kitahara diene. Strategic transformations include a hetero Diels-Alder reaction, Ferrier-type addition, and palladium-catalyzed oxidative lactonization to set key stereocenters within the dihydropyran core, followed by fragment coupling via (E)-selective Julia-Kocienski olefination.

Benzothiazines in synthesis. A formal total synthesis of pseudopteroxazole.

Project description:A formal total synthesis of the antitubercular natural product was accomplished. This work was undertaken to address certain stereochemical problems in our initial synthesis. By using an ester group as a surrogate for a methyl group, we were able to intercept a key intermediate in our first synthesis with better selectivity and greater convergence than had previously been the case.

Perylenequinone natural products: enantioselective synthesis of the oxidized pentacyclic core.

Project description:An enantioselective approach to the perylenequinone core found in the mold perylenequinone natural products is outlined. Specifically, the first asymmetric syntheses of helical chiral perylenequinones absent any additional stereogenic centers are described. Key elements of the synthetic venture include a catalytic enantioselective biaryl coupling, a PIFA-induced naphthalene hydroxylation, and a palladium-mediated aromatic decarboxylation. Transfer of the binaphthalene axial stereochemistry to the perylenequinone helical stereochemistry proceeded with good fidelity. Furthermore, the resultant perylenequinones were shown to possess sufficient atropisomeric stability to be viable intermediates in the biogenesis of the perylenequinone natural products. This stability supports the use of the helical axis as a stereochemical relay in synthesis of the natural products containing additional stereochemical centers.

Total Synthesis of Pentacyclic (-)-Ambiguine P Using Sequential Indole Functionalizations.

Project description:The first synthesis of a pentacyclic ambiguine (ambiguine P) is reported. The synthesis takes advantage of sequential alkylations of an indole core to rapidly construct the pentacyclic framework of the natural product. Key to the success of the synthesis was the use of a Nicholas reaction to alkylate at C2, crafting a fused seven-membered ring that is characteristic of the pentacyclic ambiguines, as well as the use of an amide-directed functionalization at C12 to set a requisite quaternary center. A versatile late-stage intermediate was prepared that may be applicable to the synthesis of the other pentacyclic ambiguines.

Total Synthesis of the Chlorinated Pentacyclic Indole Alkaloid (+)-Ambiguine G.

Project description:Reported herein is the total synthesis of (+)-ambiguine G, the first member of the chlorinated pentacyclic ambiguines to yield to chemical synthesis. The synthesis is accomplished through a convergent strategy that proceeds in 10 steps from (S)-carvone oxide. Pivotal to the concise route is the successful realization of a [4+3] cycloaddition that conjoins two easily synthesized components of the carbon framework of the natural product. Also featured in the synthesis is the efficient, diastereoselective construction of a key vinylated chloro ketone and the unprecedented, one-pot reduction-elimination-oxidation sequence that transforms an enone to an advanced hydroxylated-diene intermediate.
