Promothiocin A 1, isolated from Streptomyces sp. SF2741, is a member of the thiopeptide family of antibiotics. These antibiotics, which inhibit protein synthesis in bacteria and induce the expression of various genes (of unknown function), are characterised by their complex structure in which an array of heterocyclic rings is incorporated into a macrocyclic peptide framework. Despite the fascinating biological activity of the thiopeptide antibiotics, very little synthetic work has been carried out to date, although the synthesis of the pyridine fragments of the micrococcins, sulfomycin and nosiheptide has been addressed recently, as has the construction of some related pyridines. In continuation of our interest in the synthesis of heterocyclic natural products, we now report the synthesis of the oxazole-thiazole-pyridine 2, which contains the required functionality for elaboration into promothiocin A 1.
从链霉菌SF2741中分离得到的普罗莫西辛A 1,属于硫肽类抗生素家族。这类抗生素通过抑制细菌蛋白质合成并诱导多种未知功能基因的表达,其特点在于复杂的结构中,一系列杂环结构被整合到一个大环肽骨架中。尽管硫肽类抗生素具有引人注目的生物活性,但迄今为止,关于其合成的工作非常有限。虽然最近已解决微球菌素、硫霉素和诺西肽的吡啶片段的合成问题,以及一些相关吡啶结构的构建,但整体合成进展仍显不足。继我们对杂环天然产物合成的兴趣之后,我们现在报道了含有呋喃-噻唑-吡啶结构的化合物2的合成,该结构含有进一步合成普罗莫西辛A 1所需的功能基团。
