Podoscyphic acid 1, a fungal metabolite inhibiting RNA-directed DNA polymerises, was synthesised in four steps starting from dodecanal. The concluding ester hydrolysis of 4 was not feasible with chemical reagents, only enzymatic hydrolysis was mild enough to release the highly reactive natural product in good yields.

Novel hexahydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridines prepared by the addition of ethyl (1-benzylimidazolidin-2-ylidene)acetate (2) to the fungal metabolite podoscyphic acid (1a) and esters of la have been evaluated for their ability to inhibit the inducible TNF-alpha promoter activity in T cells. The methyl ester 3b is the most potent, inhibiting the TNF-alpha driven reporter gene expression in Jurkat T cells with an IC50-value of 2.0 mu g/ml (3.6 mu M). In addition, compound 3b inhibited the inducible TNF-alpha production in the myelomonocytic U937 cells with an IC50-value of 4.6 mu M. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
