Aplyronine A, a Potent Antitumor Substance of Marine Origin, Aplyronines B and C, and Artificial Analogues: Total Synthesis and Structure−Cytotoxicity Relationships
摘要:
The enantioselective total synthesis of aplyronine A (1), a potent antitumor substance of marine origin, was achieved by a convergent-approach Three segments 4, 5, and 6, corresponding to the C5-C11, C21-C27, and C28-C34 portions of aplyronine A (1), were prepared using:the Evans aldol reaction and the Sharpless epoxidation as key steps. The coupling reaction of 4 with iodide 7 followed by julia olefination with sulfone 8 gave the C5-C20 segment 9, while the julia coupling reaction between segments 5 and 6 provided the C21-C34 segment 10. Julia olefination between segments 9 and 10 and the subsequent four-carbon homologation reaction led to seco acid 83, which was converted into aplyronine A (1) by Yamaguchi lactonization followed by the introduction of two amino acids. The use of the [(3,4-dimethoxybenzyl)oxy]methyl group as a protecting group for the hydroxyl at C29 was crucial for this synthesis. The enantioselective synthesis of two natural congeners, aplyronines B (2) acid C (3), was also carried out using the intermediates for the synthesis of 1, which determined the absolute stereostructures of 2 and 3 unambiguously. To study the structure-cytotoxicity relationships of aplyronines, artificial analogues of 1 were synthesized and their cytotoxicities were evaluated: the trimethylserine moiety, two hydroxyl groups, and the side-chain portion in 1 turned out to be important in the potent cytotoxicity shown by 1. Biological studies with aplyronine A (1) showed that 1 inhibited polymerization of G-actin to F-actin and depolymerized F-actin to G-actin.

The first asymmetric synthesis of the polyetherantibiotic lonomycin has been achieved. The skeleton is assembled through the synthesis and union of two subunits comprising the CI-CII and C12-C3o portions of the structure. These fragments were constructed utilizing auxiliary-based asymmetric aldol and acylation reactions to control the absolute stereochemical relationships in the structure. The majority
Enantioselective synthesis of δ-/γ-alkoxy-β-hydroxy-α-alkyl-substituted Weinreb amides via DKR–ATH: application to the synthesis of advanced intermediate of (−)-brevisamide
A method of preparing stereodefined δ-/γ-alkoxy-β-hydroxy-α-alkyl-substituted Weinreb amides containing two successive hydroxyl-alkyl stereocenters has been developed. Further, this strategy coupled with organo-catalyzed asymmetric epoxidation culminates in the synthesis of a critical intermediate of (â)-brevisamide and its diastereomers.

of ad-erythro-β-methylaspartic acid analog was achieved in six steps from commercially available material. Evans' aldol reactions were utilized followed by Weinreb amide formation and Mitsunobu inversion to achieve the necessary stereochemistry of the aminoacid target. The technique was applied to the synthesis of an aspartic acid analog as well as a diaminobutyric acid analog.

The proposed structure of lasonolide A was synthesized employing radical cyclization reactions of beta-alkoxyacrylates for preparation of the tetrahydropyranyl units A and B, but the spectroscopic data did not match those of the natural product. Both enantiomers of a revised structure featuring 17E,25Z double bonds were synthesized, and the (-)-isomer was found to be the biologically active enantiomer.
