A Practical Synthesis of a Hydroxylated Sesquiterpene Coumarin 10’R-Acetoxy-11’-hydroxyumbelliprenin by Regioselective Dihydroxylation
摘要:
A practical synthesis of 10'R-acetoxy-11'-hydroxyumbelliprenin was achieved using regioselective Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation as a key reaction, in which the regioselectivity was achieved by using (DHQD)(2)AQN as a ligand instead of the conventional (DHQD)(2)PHAL. 10'R-Acetoxy-11'-hydroxyumbelliprenin was synthesized by the coupling of a coumarin unit (umbelliferone) and sesquiterpene unit in 11% overall yield through 5 steps.

Two new sesquiterpene coumarins, designated 5'-acetoxy-8'-hydroxyumbelliprenin (1) and 10'R-acetoxy-11'-hydroxyumbelliprenin (2), and a new diterpene, 15-hydroxy-6-en-dehydroabietic acid (3). along with 27 known compounds, were isolated from a CHCl3-soluble extract of Ferula assa-foetida through bioassay-guided fractionation. The structures of the new metabolites 1-3 were identified by spectroscopic data interpretation and by the Mosher ester method. Compounds 4 and 6-13 showed greater potency against influenza A virus (H1N1) (IC50 0.26-0.86 mu g/mL) than amantadine (IC50 0.92 mu g/mL), and 11 exhibited the best potency (IC50 0.51, 2.6, and 3.4 mu g/mL) of these compounds against the HepG2, Hep3B, and MCF-7 cancer cell lines, respectively.
