A Concise Route to Branched Erythrono-γ-lactones. Synthesis of the Leaf-Closing Substance Potassium (±)-(2R,3R)-2,3,4-Trihydroxy-2-methylbutanoate
摘要:
A series of 1,2-dioxanes 3 were ring-opened with Co-(SALEN)(2) to furnish lactol regioisomers 4 and 5 (86-99% yield). The lactols were oxidized to gamma-lactones 8 and 9 (72-96% yield) and deprotected to afford the 2-C- and 3-C-alkyl and aryl branched erythrono-gamma-lactones 1, 6, and 7 (65-94% yield), including the natural plant lactone (+/-)-2C-D-methylerythrono-1,4-lactone 1. The latter compound was treated with aqueous potassium hydroxide to afford potassium (+/-)-(2R,3R)-2,3,4-trihydroxy-2-methylbutanoate 2, which is a leaf-closing substance of Leucaena leucocephalam.

An acetonide is the only protecting group used in the synthesis of both the enantiomers of 2,4-di-C-methyl arabinose and 2-deoxy-2,4-di-C-methyl arabinose via the enantiomeric 3-C-methyl-L-erythronolactone [from 2-C-methyl-D-ribono-lactone or D-ribose] and 3-C-methyl-D-erythronolactone [from D-tagatose Or L-ribose]. NMR studies on unprotected C-methyl arabinoses show that methyl branching significantly affects the ratios of pyranose and furanose forms present in aqueous Solution. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd.

The title reagent reacts with γ and δ lactones to provide hydroxy amides which can be easily converted into protected N-acyl indoles. Mild saponification provides indole and the protected hydroxy acid.
