Efficient Synthesis of 3-Aminocyclobut-2-en-1-ones: Squaramide Surrogates as Potent VLA-4 Antagonists
摘要:
[GRAPHICS]A novel series of uniquely functionalized 3-aminocyclobut-2-en-1-ones has been prepared by facile condensation of a variety of cyclobuta-1,3-diones with a phenylalanine-derived primary amine. These systems subsequently lend themselves to substitution at C-2 by reaction with a variety of electrophilic reagents including N-halosuccinimides, sulfenyl chlorides, and Eschenmoser's salt. Compounds from this novel series are potent antagonists of VLA-4.

A novel strategy for the synthesis of Aspidosperma alkaloids has been achieved via a photoredox-initiated [2+2]/retro-Mannich reaction of tryptamine-substituted enaminones as a key step. The developed chemistry has been applied to the construction of the core tetracycle of Aspidosperma alkaloids (±)-aspidospermidine and (±)-limaspermidine.
