Chemistry of secologanin. Part 5. Graphical analysis of the acidic deglycosylation of vincoside derivatives
摘要:
Acidic hydrolysis and cyclization were studied in vincoside glycosides ('natural' series) and their dihydro derivatives ('dihydro' series) in which either one or both N atoms were free or blocked by an alkyl group. For interpretation of the results, a graph was constructed in which 25 points (actually circles) represent a maximum of 81 aglycone types and 40 arrows indicate 131 possible cyclizations. The reaction matrix of the graph was under thermodynamic control and in most cases afforded the thermodynamically most stable product aglycones. In addition to the deglycosylation, two types of cyclization were observed. In azacyclizations, the preferred nucleophilic site is N-4 over N-1, and the preferred electrophilic site is C-22 in the glycosides, C-21 over C-19 and C-17 in aglycones. In oxacyclizations, the preferred nucleophilic site is O-17 over C-18 and C-21, and the preferred electrophilic site is C-19 over C-21 and C-17 in the 'natural' series, C-21 over C-17 in the 'dihydro' series. In one case, the kinetically favoured aglycone types which had been generated in the reaction mixture were trapped in a subsequent reaction (outside the graph) before thermodynamic equilibrium was attained. With the help of graphical analysis it was possible to justify the formation of the most favourable and actually isolated products and pathways out of a large number of possibilities.

The indole alkaloids 19-epiajmalicine (11), 3-iso-19-epiajmalicine(10), and their oxindole derivatives, formosanine (13) and isoformosanine (14) have been synthesised from a vincoside derivative in a biogenetically patterned reaction sequence.
