Formation of substituted tetrahydropyrans through oxetane ring opening: Application to the synthesis of C1-C17 fragment of salinomycin

The stereoselective synthesis of C1-C17 fragment of salinomycin is achieved. The strategy employs a desymmetrization approach and utilizes an intramolecular oxetane opening reaction with O-nucleophile to result in the tetrahydropyran skeleton as the key s

Absolute stereochemistry of TT-1 (rasfonin), an α-pyrone-containing natural product from a fungus, Trichurus terrophilus

The absolute stereochemistry of TT-1 (1=rasfonin), an α -pyrone-containing natural product from a Fungi Imperfecti, Trichurus terrophilus, was determined as 5R,6R,7S,9R, and 6′S on the basis of synthesis of diastereomers of two fragments of 1 in optically

Synthetic routes to the stereoisomers of 2,4-dimethylpentane-1,5-diol derivatives

Five different routes to every stereoisomer of non-symmetric derivatives of 2,4-dimethylpentanedioic acid and/or of O-monoprotected 2,4-dimethylpentane- 1,5-diols, which are common building blocks for the total synthesis of many polypropionates, have been investigated. Alkylation of the lithium enolate of N-propanoylpseudoephedrine turned out to be the most appropriate method, in connection with the synthesis of fragment C1-C5 of amphidinolide K.

Total Synthesis of Myxovirescins, 2. Assembly of the "Northwestern" Part

The part of the target molecules myxovirescins A and M containing the atoms C(15)-C(28) is described in this paper (for retrosynthetic analysis see Scheme 1).There are three stereogenic centers which are incorporated by using (S)-2-hydroxymethyl-butanoic acid and the appropriate enantiopure diastereoisomeric 2,4-dimethyl-glutaric acids as building blocks (Schemes 2-4).These are joined by the achiral unit 4-oxo-hex-5-enoic acid.The key steps of the assembly are a cuprate Michael addition (Scheme 5) and a nucleophilic addition of a Li derivative to an aldehyde (Scheme 6).In both cases the organometallic reagents are generated by I/Li exchange using two equiv. of tBuLi.The chiral building blocks are prepared by yeast reduction of ethyl 2-formyl-butanoate and by resolution of the 2,4-dimethyl-pentanedioic acid monomethyl ester with phenethylamine; both enantiomers derived from the meso-2,4-dimethyl-glutaric acid are converted to the same aldehyde (5a; "meso-trick", Schemes 3 and 4).The "northwestern" parts for the final synthesis are actually hydroxy sulfones (2 in Scheme 6), the termini of which are ready for Julia coupling and oxidation to a carboxylic acid group.The preparation of the intermediates on gram scales is described and all new compounds are fully characterized by their physical properties, by spectroscopy (IR, 1H- and 13C-NMR spectra) and by elemental analysis. - Key Words: Myxovirescins / Myxococcus virescens / Antibiotics / Macrolides / Lactones / Lactams / Iodine-lithium exchange / Michael additions
