Identification, Synthesis, and Conformation of Tri- and Tetrathiacycloalkanes from Marine Bacteria
摘要:
[GRAPHICS]Seven new cyclic natural polysulfides 1-7 were identified in extracts of two bacterial Cytophaga strains (CFB-phylum) isolated from biofilms from the North Sea. Their structures are based on mono- and dimeric-cyclization products of 2-methylpropane-1,2- dithiol 8, which was also present in the extract in trace amounts. The structures were deduced by analysis of their mass spectra and confirmed by synthesis. The H-1 NMR spectra of some these compounds suggested a high flexibility of the trithiepane and tetrathiocane systems. Therefore, their conformation was further analyzed by DFT calculations and dynamic NMR spectroscopy. While thiepane 4 possesses a twist-chair lowest energy conformation, its isomers 2 and 3 adopt a chairlike conformation, as does the tetrathiocane 5. In contrast, tetrathiocane 6 favors again a twisted chair conformation.

In reaction of unsaturated compounds with sulfur dichloride in the presence of dimethyl sulfide radically new induced directions are realized: the reagent is involved as dimer or trimer (formation of di- and trisulfides). Alongside this process a conjugate chlorination occurred with participation of external nucleophiles, dimethyl sulfide and acetonitrile, furnishing sulfonium chlorides and N-substituted acetamides respectively. The relative importance of these alternative reactions depends on solvent, alkene structure, and order of reagents addition.
