Enantioselective Synthesis of 5-LO Inhibitor Hydroxyureas. Tandem Nucleophilic Addition−Intramolecular Cyclization of Chiral Nitrones
摘要:
An enantioselective synthesis of chiral hydroxyurea based 5-lipoxygenase inhibitors is reported via a five-step sequence in about 39% overall yield. The synthesis is based on a novel tandem nucleophilic addition-intramolecular cyclization reaction in which a chiral nitrone functions as the electrophilic acceptor species. A mannose-based chiral auxiliary controls the diastereoselectivity of the reaction in an 8:1 ratio. After the auxiliary removal and appropriate functionalization, a single recrystallization afforded the target structures in > 99% ee.

synthesis of a 5-LO inhibiting chiral hydroxyurea is described based on the nucleophilicaddition of dimethylsulfoxonium ylide to a nitrone bearing a mannose-derived chiral auxiliary. The dihydrobenzofuran skeleton is then constructed by a spontaneous cyclization of the initial adduct, thus completing a tandemnucleophilic addition-cyclization protocol.
