graphicStereoselective syntheses of the delta-lactone of (2Z,5S,7R,9S,11S)-tetrahydroxyhexacos-2-enoic acid, the structure reported for passifloricin A, and of its (5R)-epimer are described. The creation of all stereogenic centers relied upon Brown's asymmetric allylation methodology. The lactone ring was created via ring-closing metathesis. The NMR data of both synthetic products, however, were different from those of the natural product. The published structure of passifloricin A is thus erroneous and will require further synthetic work to be unambiguously assigned.

The stereoselective total synthesis of the proposed structures P1 and P2 for passifloricin A was achieved in 12 steps from n-hexadecanal by using enantioselective allyltitanations and a ring closing metathesis reaction as the key steps. Both PI and P2 are different from passifloricin A. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
Antiparasite and antimycobacterial activity of passifloricin analogues
Several structural analogues of the polyketide passifloricin lactone were synthesized using asymmetric stereoselective allylations and ring-closing methateses as key reactions. These compounds were active in vitro against intracellular amastigotes of Leishmania panamensis (strain UA 140), trophozoites of Plasinodium falciparum (strain NF54), and Mycobacterium tuberculosis (strain H(37)Rv). However, in spite of the significative antiparasitic activity of some synthetic analogues a high cytotoxicity was also observed. Based on these results a lactam derivative was also synthesized. This compound maintained a good level of activity with less toxicity. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All fights reserved.
