An efficient formation of spiroisoxazoline ring system by intramolecular oxidativecyclisation of o-phenolic oxime-esters and oxime-amides using phenyliodonium diacetate (PIDA) is described. The intramolecular oxidativecyclisation of various o-phenolic oxime-acid derivatives in acetonitrile at 0 °C proceeded smoothly to afford spiroisoxazolines in good yields.

Cytoplasmic dynein plays important roles in membrane transport, mitosis, and other cellular processes. A few small-molecule inhibitors of cytoplasmic dynein have been identified. We report here the first synthesis of purealin, a natural product isolated from the sea sponge Psammaplysilla purea, which is known to inhibit axonemal dynein. Also described are the first syntheses, by modular amide coupling reactions, of the natural product purealidin A (a component of purealin) and a small library of analogues. The library was examined for inhibition of cytoplasmic dynein heavy chain and cell growth. The compounds showed effective antiproliferative activity against a mouse leukemia cell line but selective activities against human carcinoma cell lines. Purealin and some of the analogues inhibited the microtubule-stimulated ATPase activity of recombinant cytoplasmic dynein heavy chain motor domain. The inhibitory effect of purealin was concentration dependent and uncompetitive, supporting the hypothesis that it does not compete with the binding of ATP.

The first total syntheses of (+)- and (−)-subereamollines A and B are reported. The enantiomeric forms of the natural products were obtained by preparative chiral HPLC separation of the corresponding racemates.

(±)-aerophobin-1 have been successfully synthesized using phenolic oxidation of the methyl pyruvate oxime derivative with thallium(III) trifluoroacetate as a key step. The stereostructure of aerophobin-2 has been also established by comparison of the 1H NMR spectrum with those of relatedcompounds.
