Synthesis and determination of the relative structure of akaterpin, a potent inhibitor of PI-PLC
摘要:
We describe the first total synthesis and structural determination of akaterpin, an inhibitor of phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC). The key features of the synthetic strategy include a regio- and stereoselective C-alkylation at the angular C1' position and an exo-selective intermolecular Diels-Alder reaction. The relative stereochemistry was determined by a comparison of the NMR spectra of synthetic akaterpin with those of natural akaterpin. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Determination of the Absolute Structure of (+)-Akaterpin
We describe the total synthesis and structural determination of (+)-akaterpin (1), an inhibitor of phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC). The key features of the synthetic strategy include the resolution of β,γ-unsaturated ketone (±)-2a with chiral sulfoximine 6. The absolute stereochemistry was determined by comparison of the specific optical rotation data of (+)-1 and (−)-1 with that of natural akaterpin.
