Enantioselective Total Synthesis of (+)-6-epi-Mevinolin and Its Analogs. Efficient Construction of the Hexahydronaphthalene Moiety by High Pressure-Promoted Intramolecular Diels−Alder Reaction of (R,2Z,8E,10E)-1-[(tert-Butyldimethylsilyl)oxy]-6-methyl-2,8,10-dodecatrien-4-one
摘要:
3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitors, (+)-6-epi-mevinolin (2a) and (+)-6-epi-4a,5-dihydromevinolin (2b), were prepared by combining two nonracemic units, phosphonate 3 and decalin 4, which were prepared from enantiopure 3-substituted pentanedioic acid monoesters 5a and 5b, respectively. Each acid was synthesized from cyclic anhydrides 7a and 7b by diastereoselective ring opening by means of (S)-benzyl mandelate as a common chiral auxiliary. The construction of decalin moiety 4 was accomplished by asymmetric intramolecular Diels-Alder (IMDA) reaction of nonracemic trienone 6 bearing a methyl group as a chiral controller. The IMDA diastereoselectivity of trienone 6 is discussed in terms of the configuration of(E)- and (Z)-dienophiles which are activated by an endogenous carbonyl group. The IMDA reaction of(R)-(Z)-6 under high pressure is highly selective and gives cis-decalins exclusively with preferential formation of 4 over 16. The inhibitory activity of (+)-6-epi-mevinolin (2a) and several analogs against HMG-CoA reductase was compared with mevinolin (1b). (+)-6-epi-Mevinolin (2a) was shown to be half as potent as mevinolin (1b) while (+)-6-epi-4a,5-dihydromevinolin (2b) was as potent as mevinolin.

A concise totalsynthesis of neopeltolide macrolactone has been accomplished in 14 steps in the longest linear sequence, 15 steps overall from commercially available materials. The present synthesis was highlighted by successful exploitation of ether transfer methodology and a radical cyclization reaction to directly establish the requisite stereochemistry of the tetrahydropyran core.
