Synthesis of Cycloprodigiosin Identifies the Natural Isolate as a Scalemic Mixture
摘要:
The enantiomers of the natural product cycloprodigiosin were prepared using an expedient five-step synthetic sequence that takes advantage of a Schollkopf-Barton-Zard (SBZ) pyrrole annulation with a chiral isocyanoacetate and a nitrocyclohexene derivative. Using chiral HPLC and X-ray crystallographic analyses of the synthetically prepared Material and natural isolate (isolated from the marine bacterium Pseudoalteromonas rubra), naturally occurring cyclo-prodigiosin was determined to be a scalemic mixture occurring in an enantiomeric ratio of 83:17 (R)/(S) at C4'.
Application of In Situ-Generated Rh-Bound Trimethylenemethane Variants to the Synthesis of 3,4-Fused Pyrroles
摘要:
Rh-bound trimethylenemethane variants generated from the interaction of a Rh-carbenoid with an allene have been applied to the synthesis of substituted 3,4-fused pyrroles. The pyrrole products are useful starting points for the syntheses of various dipyrromethene ligands. Furthermore, the methodology has been applied to a synthesis of the natural product cycloprodigiosin, which demonstrates antitumor and immunosuppressor activity.
