The total synthesis of D-chalcose and its C-3 epimer
نویسندگان
چکیده
We completed a new and efficient synthesis of D-chalcose (I) and the first synthesis of its C-3 epimer (I') in nine steps with overall yields of 23% and 24%, respectively. The key steps in the sequence were the formation of the stereocenter on C3 via Grignard reaction, the introduction of the stereogenic center on C2 by Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation, the protection of the C1 and C2 hydroxy groups with tert-butyldimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate (TBSOTf), and the selective cleavage of the primary OTBS ether using catalytic DL-10-camphorsulfonic acid (CSA) in MeOH.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of 12,13-cyclopropyl and 12,13-cyclobutyl epothilones.
With some members in clinical trials, the epothilones command attention as potential anticancer agents of considerable promise. In addition to several naturally occurring substances, an impressive array of epothilone analogues has been constructed and biologically evaluated. 2] We have previously reported the apartialo construction of two 12,13-cyclopropyl epothilone A analogues. Their structur...
متن کاملTotal Synthesis of GEX1Q1, Assignment of C-5 Stereoconfiguration and Evaluation of Spliceosome Inhibitory Activity
An enantioselective total synthesis of GEX1Q1 has been accomplished in a convergent manner. The C-5 asymmetric center has now been assigned through synthesis. GEX1Q1 displayed slightly better spliceosome inhibitory activity over its C-5 epimer. The salient features of this synthesis include an asymmetric hetero-Diels-Alder reaction to construct the tetrahydropyran ring and a Suzuki cross-coupli...
متن کاملAsymmetric synthesis of Ampelomin A and ent-Epiampelomin A.
We synthesized the naturally occurring carbasugar ampelomin A and its epimer from a common starting material. The enantiomerically pure starting material was obtained by base-catalyzed asymmetric Diels-Alder reaction of 3-hydroxy-2-pyrone and chiral acrylate. The total yield of ampelomin A was 14% in seven synthetic steps. The key step of the synthesis of ampelomin A was inversion of the stereo...
متن کاملCoupling of sterically hindered trisubstituted olefins and benzocyclobutenones by C-C activation: total synthesis and structural revision of cycloinumakiol.
The first total syntheses of the proposed structure of cycloinumakiol (1) and its C5 epimer (18) are achieved in a concise and efficient fashion. Starting from the known 3-hydroxybenzocyclobutenone, 1 and 18 are obtained in nine and five steps with overall yields of 15% and 33%, respectively. The key for the success of this approach is the use of a catalytic C-C activation strategy for construc...
