Direct C-2 Arylation of Alkyl 4-Thiazolecarboxylates: New Insights in Synthesis of Heterocyclic Core of Thiopeptide Antibiotics
摘要:
The Pd(0)-catalyzed regioselective C-2 (hetero)arylation of tert-butyl 4-thiazolecarboxylate with a broad (hetero)aryl halide is reported, including the direct coupling of pyridinyl halides. The process has allowed the preparation of valuable 2-pyridynyl-4-thiazolecarboxylates which are components of the complex heterocyclic core of thiopeptides antibiotics. As a first application, a synthesis of a tert-butyl sulfomycinamate thio-analogue from tert-butyl 4-thiazolecarboxylate is here described through a three-step direct pyridinylation, halogenation, and Stille cross-coupling sequence.
The first palladium-catalyzed borylation of 4-bromo-2-ketothiazoles followed by a Suzuki cross-coupling reaction with haloheteroaromatics using Buchwaid's Cy-JohnPhos and XPhos ligands is reported. The methodology has allowed the fast preparation of highly valuable 4-pyridinyl- and 4-thiazolyl-2-ketothiazoles as common subunits of thiopeptide antibiotics. As direct applications, novel concise syntheses of a sulfomycinamate thio-analogue as well as micrococcinate and saramycetate esters are described.
