Total synthesis of (+)-latrunculin A, an ichthyotoxic metabolite of the sponge Latrunculia magnifica and its C-15 epimer
摘要:
Latrunculin A (1), an ichthyotoxic metabolite of the sponge Latrunculia magnifica with potent inhibitory action on microfilament-mediated processes involved in cell division, was synthesized via a convergent approach. Construction of a major segment of the latrunculin backbone was accomplished by means of a three-component coupling of aldehyde 24, beta-keto ester 27, and phosphonium salt 26, which established the conjugated EZ-diene moiety of 31. The thiazolidinone subunit of 1 was elaborated in the form of 39 from L-cysteine and was linked to 35 without nitrogen protection. Final lactonization of 47 was carried out using the Mitsunobu protocol. A parallel sequence employing the epimeric seco acid 48 produced 15-epilatrunculin A.
A Convenient Synthesis of Chiral Oxazolidin-2-Ones and Thiazolidin-2-Ones and an Improved Preparation of Triphosgene
摘要:
Oxazolidin-2-ones and thiazolidin-2-one are conveniently prepared by condensation of L-serine, L-threonine and L-cysteine, respectively with triphosgene. The corresponding methyl esters may be subsequently obtained by quenching the reaction mixture with methanol, without prior need for the isolation of the free acids. An improved procedure for preparation of triphosgene using an internal cooling system is described.

to its fragmentation into fluorophosgene and benzonitrile. The in situ generated fluorophosgene was used for the preparation of carbonates, carbamates, and urea derivatives in moderate to excellent yields via an intramolecular cyclization reaction. Transient spectroscopicinvestigations suggest the formation of a catalyst charge‐transfer complex‐dimer as the catalytic active species. Fluorophosgene
secondary amides and present a simple two-step, metal-free approach to selectively modify a particular secondary amide in molecules containing multiple primary and secondary amides. Density functional theory (DFT) provides insight into the activation of C–N bonds. This study encompasses distinct chemical advances for late-stage modification of peptides thus harnessing the amides for the incorporation
Carbon dioxide can be used as a convenient carbonylating agent in the synthesis of 2-oxazolidinones, 2-oxazinones, and cyclic ureas. The transient carbamate anion generated by treating a primary or secondary amine group in basic media can be activated with phosphorylatingagents such as Diphenylphosphoryl azide (DPPA) and Diphenyl chlorophosphate (DPPCl) but also with other types of electrophiles such

A simplified procedure for the N-acylation of oxazolidin-2-one chiral auxiliaries has been developed. The acylations occur at room temperature in the presence of triethylamine and catalytic quantities of 4-(N,N-dimethylamino)pyridine, thereby eliminating the necessity for a strong base such as butyllithium. Acylations with both symmetrical and mixed anhydrides, as well as acid chlorides, occur with a wide variety of oxazolidinone auxiliaries.
dehydration of primary amides to nitriles efficiently proceeds undermild, aqueous conditions via the use of dichloroacetonitrile as a water acceptor. A key to the design of this transfer dehydration catalysis is the identification of an efficientwater acceptor, dichloroacetonitrile, that preferentially reacts with amides over other polar functional groups with the aid of the Pd catalyst and makes the desired
