The first total synthesis of dehydroaltenusin, a natural enzyme inhibitor, is described. The key step involves Suzuki-coupling reaction of an aryl triflate prepared from 2,4,6-trihydroxybenzoic acid with a catechol-derived boronic acid or boronic ester. The synthetic product was evaluated as a potent inhibitor against eukaryotic DNA polymerase a and other DNA polymerases. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Totalsynthesis of alternaria toxins starting from previously synthesized altenuene (3) and isoaltenuene (4) is described. Dihydroaltenuene B (9) was prepared by hydrogenation of 3, and the non-natural epimer 3-epi-dihydroaltenuene A was obtained analogously from 4. Inspection of the spectroscopic data for 9 revealed that the originally proposed structure was in error. A revised structure (11), unambiguously
The X-ray crystal structure of dehydroaltenusin, a specific inhibitor of mammalian DNA polymerase alpha, has previously been reported. We show that dehydroaltenusin exists in an equilibrium mixture of two tautomers possessing gamma-lactone or delta-lactone in polar solvents by NMR experiments. Acetylation of dehydroaltenusin afforded two types of diacetates and two types of monoacetate, possessing gamma-lactone or delta-lactone, respectively. The inhibitory activities of these acetate derivatives against DNA polymerase alpha were all much weaker than that of dehydroaltenusin. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
Synthesis and structure–activity relationships of dehydroaltenusin derivatives as selective DNA polymerase α inhibitors
Herein, we describe the synthesis and structure–activity relationships of dehydroaltenusin derivatives as inhibitors of a mammalian DNApolymerase α. We have newly synthesized nine dehydroaltenusin derivatives modified at the side chains or benzoquinone moiety. We also achieved the first synthesis of desmethylaltenusin and desmethyldehydroaltenusin, metabolites of Alternaria sp. or Talaromyces flavus
