Direct Total Syntheses of Frenolicin B and Kalafungin via Highly Regioselective Diels-Alder Reactions
摘要:
Frenolicin B, an anticoccidial agent, has been synthesized in six steps from ketone 3. Racemic kalafungin, an antifungal agent, has been synthesized in five steps. The key step in both syntheses, a regioselective Diels-Alder reaction, proceeds with complete regiocontrol and in excellent yield. One rationale for the remarkable stereocontrol is that the lactone ring induces ring-puckering in the quinone subunit which, in consort with electrostatic repulsion, contributes to the regioselectivity.
Stereoselective total synthesis of natural product crisamicin A (1) was accomplished for the first time via the Pd/TMTU-catalyzed alkoxycarbonylative annulation to generate a unique cis-pyran-fused lactone, an intermolecular Diels-Alder reaction to construct the pyranonaphthoquinone unit, and a novel Pd-thiourea pincer complex-catalyzed homocoupling of functionalized naphthoquinones.
