All eight stereoisomers of conidendrin were synthesized from (1 R,2 S,3 S)-1-(4-benzyloxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-3-(4-benzyloxy-3-methoxybenzyl)-2- hydroxymethyl-1,4-butanediol ((+)-4) and its enantiomer with high optical purity. The configurations at 4-positio

The lignan 7′-hydroxymatairesinol (1), extracted from the knotwoods of fir (Abies alba), spruce (Picea abies), and Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii), exhibited unexpected reactivity when esterification reactions were attempted on the hydroxy group at position C-7′. To circumvent the rapid intramolecular cyclization procedure, leading quantitatively to the lignan conidendrin (7), a simple strategy for 7′-esterification of 1 under mild conditions (three steps, up to 80% overall yield) was developed. Compared to hydroxymatairesinol (1) (log K′w = 1.49), the derivatives (2-5) had increased lipophilicity with log K′w > 3.1, as determined by a UHPLC method. Compounds 1-5 exhibited potent antioxidant properties in the same range as the standards ascorbic acid and α-tocopherol (IC50 = 20-25 μM) and higher than that of BHT using a DPPH radical-scavenging assay.

The readily available natural lignan hydroxymatairesinol was transformed into sterically hindered and optically pure diphenyl, di-2-naphthyl, and tetramethyl 1,4-diol derivatives via arylation/alkylation of the aryltetralinbutyrolactone lignan (-)-conidendrin. In addition, the diastereoselective formation of stable hemiketals from the highly substituted butyrolactone was studied in detail. The conformations of the molecules prepared were studied computationally at molecular mechanics (MM), Hartree-Fock (HF)/6-31G*, and (DFT/B3LYP/TZVP) levels including entropy contributions and by NMR-spectroscopy. The conformations adopted showed that these novel chiral 1,4-diols may be suitable as chiral ligands for the development of new chiral transition metal and organo catalysts.
