Divergent Asymmetric Total Synthesis of (−)‐Voacafricines A and B
نویسندگان
چکیده
A divergent asymmetric total synthesis of voacafricines and B, hexacyclic monoterpene indole alkaloids, has been accomplished featuring the following key steps: a) a catalyst-controlled Pictet–Spengler reaction 6-methoxytryptamine with chiral α-ketoester affording 1,1-disubstituted tetrahydro-β-carboline in excellent yield diastereoselectivity; b) oxidative cleavage 3,5-disubstituted cyclopentene furnishing dialdehyde intermediate, which was effectively differentiated through spontaneous cyclization neighboring hydroxy secondary amine functions; c) intramolecular nucleophilic addition tertiary amino nitrogen atom to situ generated oxonium species generating stereoselectively an unprecedented 8-alkyl octahydro-2H-5,8-methanofuro[2,3-b]azepin-8-ium motif bearing five contiguous stereocenters. The confirmed absolute configuration these two natural products.

Asymmetric total synthesis of (+)-merobatzelladine B.
Polycyclic guanidine natural products, such as batzelladines A, E, and F, exhibit a rich and diverse array of interesting biological activities (Figure 1). Some polycyclic guanidine alkaloids have been shown to inhibit protein–protein interactions, including the binding of HIV gp120 to CD4 on human T-cells. Furthermore, many polycyclic guanidines display potent antiviral, antimalarial, and immu...
متن کاملAsymmetric Total Synthesis of Ieodomycin B
Ieodomycin B, which shows in vitro antimicrobial activity, was isolated from a marine Bacillus species. A novel asymmetric total synthetic approach to ieodomycin B using commercially available geraniol was achieved. The approach involves the generation of 1,3-trans-dihydroxyl at C-3 and C-5 positions via a Crimmins-modified Evans aldol reaction and a chelation-controlled Mukaiyama aldol reactio...
متن کاملThe first asymmetric total synthesis of (+)-coriandrone A and B.
The first enantioselective total synthesis of (+)-coriandrone A and B, two bioactive natural products, has been achieved in 10 steps and 11 steps starting from commercially available methyl 2-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzoate. Key reactions include a Claison rearrangement, a Shi-type epoxidation-cyclization sequence and ortho-metallation of t-butylbenzamides with (S)-(-)-propylene oxide reaction.
متن کاملDivergent total synthesis of taiwaniaquinones A and F and taiwaniaquinols B and D.
A divergent approach was developed toward the total synthesis of taiwaniaquinoids. An advanced intermediate 5a with trans A/B ring junction was concisely assembled by employing a Bi(OTf)3-catalyzed cationic cyclization and a Wolff-type ring contraction as key steps. This common intermediate was readily converted to racemic taiwaniaquinones A and F and taiwaniaquinols B and D, respectively.
متن کاملAsymmetric total synthesis of (+)-swainsonine.
A concise asymmetric synthesis of (+)-swainsonine (ent-1) is described starting from 2, which was readily prepared from commercially available l-glutamic acid. The method features installation of the indolizidine ring via an intramolecular cyclisation of α-sulfinyl carbanion as a key step. (+)-Swainsonine was obtained in 11.8% overall yield in 10 steps.
