We previously reported an iterative synthesis of unsymmetrical 2,5-disubstituted pyrrolidines from pyrrolidine by two rounds of redox-triggered α-C-H functionalization. Although this approach can be used to introduce substituents at the 2- and 5-positions, it is lengthy because the redox auxiliary must be removed and then reinstalled. Therefore, we sought to develop a method to oxidize 2-functionalized pyrrolidine to cyclic N,O-acetal which could then react with a nucleophile for introduction of the 5-substituent. In this work, we found that molecular iodine can mediate the preferential oxidation of secondary over tertiary α-C-H bonds of α-substituted pyrrolidines to form cyclic N,O-acetals, improving the step economy of our previously reported method. With this strategy, (±)-preussin and its C(3) epimer were synthesized from (±)-pyrrolidin-3-ol.
Alkoxyallene-based syntheses of preussin and its analogs and their cytotoxicity

Short syntheses of oxa-preussin, racemic preussin and (-)-preussin are reported. Starting from a racemic 3-nonyl-substituted methoxyallene derivative, its lithiation and addition to phenylethanal provided the corresponding allenyl alcohol that was converted into two diastereomeric dihydrofuran derivatives by silver nitrate-catalyzed 5-endo-trig cyclization. The acid hydrolysis of the enol ether moiety gave heterocyclic ketones and subsequent highly stereoselective reductions with l-selectride furnished 2-benzyl-5-nonylfuran-3-ol derivatives in good overall yield. The major all-cis-diastereomer has the skeleton and relative configuration of preussin and is hence called oxa-preussin. An analogous sequence with the same allene, but an N-sulfonyl imine as the electrophile, finally led to racemic preussin. The stereoselectivities of the individual steps are discussed in detail. With an enantiopure 2-benzyl-5-nonylpyrrolidin-3-one intermediate the preparation of (-)-preussin with an enantiomeric ratio of >95:5 could be accomplished in a few steps. The sign of the optical rotation of this product finally proved the absolute configurations of its precursors and demonstrated that our chiral auxiliary-based route led to the antipode of the natural product. The cytotoxicity of several of the prepared heterocycles against MCF-7 tumor cells was investigated and five compounds, including racemic and enantiopure (-)-preussin, were identified as highly cytotoxic with IC50 values in the range of 3-6 μM.

A novel and efficient synthesis of (+)-preussin (7) starting from N-butoxycarbonyl-L-phenylalaninal (1) is described. This natural product was synthesized under mild conditions and with good overall yield.

A diastereoselective approach to trans-4-hydroxy-5-substituted 2-pyrrolidinones 1 (P1 = TBS, P2 = H) has been developed through a stereoselective tandem Barbier process of (R,SRS)-8 with alkyl and aryl bromide. The stereochemistry at the C-5 stereogenic center of the trans-4-hydroxy-5-substituted 2-pyrrolidinones was solely controlled by α-alkoxy substitution. This effective approach was successfully used to prepare a variety of substituted (3R,4S)-statines 2. In addition, two bioactive natural products of (+)-preussin 4 and hapalosin 5 were effectively synthesized through this stereoselective tandem Barbier process.

Intramolecular iridium-catalyzed allylic aminations of homochiral (E)-6-N-nosylaminohept-2-en-1-yl methyl carbonates were investigated. The relative position of the 2,5-substituents of the resulting pyrrolidines was found to be controlled by using both enantiomers (4 and 5) of the appropriate chiral ligand, demonstrating a simple and highly stereodivergent synthetic protocol. Selected trans- and cis-2,5-disubstituted 3-hydroxypyrrolidines (2a and 18a) were converted to (+)-bulgecinine (6) and (+)-preussin (7), respectively.

A straightforward and stereoselective synthesis of the alkaloid preussin is described starting from decanal and diethyl 3-diazo-2-oxopropylphosphonate. The key steps are an aza-Michael reaction from an α,β-unsaturated diazoketone followed by a highly stereoselective Cu-catalyzed ylide formation and then a [1,2]-Stevens rearrangement. This strategy is feasible for extension to preussin analogues, demonstrating its utility for the rapid construction of all-cis-substituted pyrrolidines.

An asymmetric method to (S,R)-α-hydroxyl-γ-amino alcohols 12 through a diastereoselective addition of Grignard reagents to β-chiral aldimines 11 is described. Subsequent oxidation/cyclization with Sarett reagent provided a novel approach to lactams 14, a flexible building block whose utility was demonstrated in the divergent synthesis of antifungal agent (-)-preussin 5 and its three analogues 23, 24, 25.

A convergent and stereoselective synthesis of 2,5-disubstituted 3-hydroxypyrrolidines has been developed that involves reductive annulation of β-iminochlorohydrins, which are readily available from β- ketochlorohydrins, and provides rapid access to a variety of 2,5-syn-pyrrolidines. Application of this process to the concise (three-step) synthesis of the fungal metabolite (+)-preussin and analogues of this substance is reported.

(Chemical Equation Presented) Pyrrolidine enones, derived from 3-oxo pyrrolidine 2-phosphonates and a HWE reaction with aldehydes, on Luche reduction give pyrrolidine allylic alcohols. The alcohols on hydrogenation (Pd/H 2) give cis-2,5-disubstituted pyrrolidines and on treatment with TFA-NaBH3CN undergo a hydroxy directed reduction to trans-2,5-disubstituted pyrrolidines.
