Synthesis of ergostane-type brassinosteroids with modifications in ring A
نویسندگان
چکیده
Herein, we present a new strategy for the preparation of a broad range of brassinosteroid biosynthetic precursors/metabolites differing by the ring A fragment. The protocol is based on the use of readily available phytohormones of this class bearing a 2α,3α-diol moiety (epibrassinolide or epicastasterone) as starting materials. The required functionalities (Δ2-, 2α,3α- and 2β,3β-epoxy-, 2α,3β-, 2β,3α-, and 2β,3β-dihydroxy-, 3-keto-, 3α- and 3β-hydroxy-, 2α-hydroxy-3-keto-) were synthesized from 2α,3α-diols in a few simple steps (Corey-Winter reaction, epoxidation, oxidation, hydride reduction, etc.).

The synthesis of cis-N-[a-carbobenzyloxy-b-(p-hydroxyphenyl)ethyl]-3-phthalimido-4-styryl-2-azetidinone is described. We have found that the electron-rich Schiff bases can afford the cis-b-lactam ring even in the presence of the free hydroxyl functions. The mechanisms of cis and trans-b-lactam ring formation are discuss...
