Absolute configuration of the solenopsins, venom alkaloids of the fire ants.
摘要:
An effective and practical procedure has been developed that allows the assignment of the absolute configuration of solenopsins from diverse origins using only small amounts of material. The method is based on the transformation of the natural secondary amines into diastereoisomeric amides by reaction with (R)-2-methoxy-2-phenyl-2-(trifluoromethyl)acetic acid chloride (MTPA-Cl), followed by comparison of their chromatographic behaviour with those of standards of established absolute configuration, This procedure has been applied to three samples of ants: Solenopsis geminata workers, S. invicta workers and S. invicta alates. It has been found that the absolute configuration of the trans alkaloids is always (2R,6R) while that of the cis alkaloids is (2R,6S). Moreover, a new synthesis of enantiomerically pure solenopsin A (4) and isosolenopsin A (3) starting from L-alanine is presented.

A protocol for rapid access to the relative and absolute configurations of the solenopsins, the venomalkaloids of fireants (Solenopsis spp.), was developed based on chiral capillary gas chromatography. The synthesis of racemic mixtures of 2-methyl-6-alkylpiperidines and the isolation of natural (2R,6R)- and (2R,6S)-2-methyl-6-undecylpiperidines allowed for the standardization of the chromatographic
Novel heterogeneous catalysts were prepared by impregnation of titania with a solution of cobalt acetate/melamine and subsequent pyrolysis. The resulting materials show an unusual nitrogen‐modified titanium structure through partial implementation of nitrogen into the support. The optimal catalyst displayed good activity and selectivity for challenging pyridinehydrogenation under acid free conditions

Concise and efficient methods for the synthesis of enantiomers of fireantvenomalkaloidssolenopsin and isosolenopsin A, B, and C are described. These syntheses are based on diastereoselective electrophilic substitution of enatiomerically-pure α-lithiated 2-alkylpiperidine.

Dearomatization of <i>N</i>-Phenyl-2,6-dialkylpiperidines: Practical Synthesis of (±)-Solenopsin A and (±)-Dihydropinidine
The fire ant venom alkaloid (′)-solenopsin A was prepared in 4 steps (34%) starting from the N-phenyl-2-undecyl piperidine (1c). The key step in this synthesis involved the dearomatization of the phenyl group of N-phenyl-2-methyl-6-undecyl-piperidine (9c), which was carried out under Birch conditions.
