Synthesis and Structure Revision of Calyxin Natural Products
摘要:
Tandem Prins cyclization and Friedel-Crafts reaction with an electron-rich aromatic ring were used to prepare the core structures of calyxin natural products. The proposed structure of epicalyxin F was prepared and shown to be incorrect. Several calyxin natural products, including calyxin F and L, were synthesized, and the structures were reassigned on the basis of NMR data and synthetic correlations.

We report the synthesis of diinsininone (33), the aglycone of (+/-)-diinsinin (2). Thereby, we complete the first construction of a proamhocyanidin (PA) type-A compound incorporating a [3.3.1]-bicyclic ketal as its characteristic core. Our strategy utilizes a coupling between a benzopyrilium salt and a flavanone that proves applicable to other PA type-A compounds. During this undertaking, treatment of naringenin (9) with 2-iodoxybenzoic acid (IBX) followed by reductive work-up affords eriodictyol (10). This reactivity mirrors that of catechol hydroxylase (F3H) found in the flavonoid pathway. Other interesting transformations include the formation of flavonoids through an ortho-quinone methide (o-QM) cycloaddition-oxidation sequence and regioselective beta-glycosidations of several unprotected flavanones suggesting a likely synthesis of 2 from the aglycone 33.
