Total Syntheses of (−)-Grandinolide and (−)-Sapranthin by the Sharpless Asymmetric Dihydroxylation of Methyltrans-3-Pentenoate: Elucidation of the Stereostructure of (−)-Sapranthin
摘要:
Methyl trans-3-pentenoate (7) was converted into the cis-substituted gamma-lactone 8 in a single step with 78 % ee. The derived enolate dilithio-8 was alkylated trans-selectively with primary iodoalkanes. with 1-iodobutane dilithio-8 afforded, after esterification with isovaleroyl chloride, the epi-blast mycinone 9, Dilithio-8 gave (-)-grandinolide (11) with 1-iodo-19-phenylnonadecane (20), A third trans-selective alkylation of dilithio-8 was undertaken with 16-iodo-1.5-hexadecadiene-7,9-diyne (21). This gave the gamma-lactone 12. which had the published relative configuration of (-)-sapranthin but different spectroscopic data, When the OH group of lactone 8 was inverted (to hydroxylactone 40) and the derived enolate dilithio-40 alkylated with iodide 21, lactone 41 resulted, Its H-1 and C-13 NMR spectra and the sign and value of optical rotation coincide with the data of natural sapranthin, These findings establish that (-)-sapranthin possesses the relative and absolute configuration of stereoformula 41. The synthesis of iodide 21 was performed via the dienoic carboxylic ester trans-23 which stemmed from the Claisen-Ireland rearrangement (27 --> 28/29)/esterification (28/29 --> 26)/Cope rearrangement (26 - 23) sequence shown in Scheme 5.

The naturally occurring butanolides (−)-blastmycinolactol, (+)-blastmycinone, (−)-NFX-2, (+)-antimycinone as well as the four stereoisomers of the butenolide Acaterin were prepared in high enantiomeric purity using hydroxy-vinyl tellurides as starting materials.
