Squalene synthetase inhibitors: synthesis of sulfonium ion mimics of the carbocationic intermediates
摘要:
Synthesis of sulfonium ion mimics 15 and 16 of the carbocationic intermediates 3 and 7, respectively, presumed to be involved in the squalene synthetase catalyzed rearrangement of farnesyl pyrophosphate (1), is reported. Synthesis of 15 involved combination of homogeranyl sulfide with with ethyl alpha-bromoacetate through use of the thallium salt or via the combination of the copper enolate of ethyl acetate and homogeranyl thiosulfonate. Alkylation of the resulting thioester with farnesyl bromide followed by reduction of the ester moiety provided the required alcohol. The sulfur was methylated with iodomethane in a solution of CH3CN and THF to yield 15. Dialkylation of acetylene with farnesyl bromide and homogeranyl thiosulfonate followed by reduction of the triple bond gave vinyl sulfides, which were methylated with iodomethane in the presence of silver perchlorate to give 16.

In this study, we outline a general method for the construction of various (furyl)methyl disulfides from acetyl-masked disulfide nucleophiles and ene-yne-ketones. This protocol is feathered by metal-free, simple experimental conditions, high efficiency, and scalable potential, which make it attractive and practical.

New methodology is presented for the formation of unsymmetrical organotrisulfides in a high yield and purity, relatively free of polysulfide byproducts. The highlight of the method is the low-temperature (-78 degrees C) deprotection of a disulfanyl acetate with sodium methoxide in THF to form a disulfanyl anion, which reacts rapidly in situ with an organothiosulfonate (S-aryl or S-alkyl) within 30 seconds followed by quenching. The discovery of these new reaction conditions together with the relative greenness of the chemistry overall makes for an efficient protocol, from which a range of organotrisulfides covering aliphatic, aromatic, as well as cysteine and sugar groups can be accessed in a high yield and purity.
