Synthesis and Absolute Configuration of Zonarol. A Fungitoxic Hydroquinone from the Brown Seaweed Dictyoptfris Zonarioides(1)
摘要:
AbstractA total synthesis of both the enantiomers of zonarol 1 was accomplished. Measurements of the ORD‐CD spectra of two bicyclic intermediates coupled with direct comparison of the natural and synthetic zonarol 1 established the absolute configuration of the naturally occurring (+)‐zonarol 1 as 1R, 4aR, 8aR.

Stereoselective syntheses of (−)-ambrox 2 and (+)-zonarol 3 were achieved based on the enzymatic syntheses of (8aS)- and (8aR)-decalin-type 1,3-diols 1, respectively. Non-racemic intermediates such as (8aS)-1 and (8aR)-1 were obtained based on the enantioselective hydrolyses of the phenolic acetal derivative (±)-7 by acylase I.
The synthesis of the marine natural products zonarone and isozonarone was achieved via (+)-albicanic acid, a sesquiterpene of the drimane type. Coupling of the appropiate drimane-synthon with lithiated hydroquinone ethers led to sesquiterpene arenes, which were further modified to the target molecules. Stereoselective epoxidation followed by regioselective opening of the oxirane ring yielded yahazunol. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
