Asymmetric Total Synthesis of (?)-Dehydrocostus Lactone by Domino Metathesis
An efficient total synthesis of the sesquiterpenoid (?)-dehydrocostus lactone is reported. Our earlier approach by a domino enediyne metathesis was extended by a domino dienyne metathesis strategy to give access to suitably functionalized hydroazulene cores. Highly stereoselective asymmetric anti aldol reactions provided the enantiopure substrates for this key step of our synthesis. Multiple hydroboration/oxidation of the resulting hydroazulenes set up three out of four stereogenic centers in a single step. First, oxidation to give a diketo-γ-lactone enabled an enantioselective formal synthesis of the target guaianolide. Subsequently, the final steps of this approach were improved by using a double carbonyl olefination at the stage of a masked γ-butyrolactone, which completed the synthesis in a much more efficient way.

Enantioselective Total Synthesis of the Guaianolide (-)-Dehydrocostus Lactone by Enediyne Metathesis
The hydroazulene core of the bioactive sesquiterpenoid (-)-dehydrocostus lactone was generated by domino enediyne metathesis. A triple hydroboration/oxidation of the resultant conjugated triene installed three out of four stereogenic centers of the target in a single step. The enantiopure acyclic metathesis substrate was readily available by an asymmetric anti aldol reaction. Masking of the O-lactone as an acetal allowed for an efficient completion of the synthesis through late-stage double carbonyl olefination.

Synthesis of a diastereomer of the marine macrolide lytophilippine A
The synthesis of a diastereomer of lytophilippine A required 22 longest linear steps using known building blocks. Cross-metathesis/asymmetric aldol addition and regioselective esterification/ring-closing metathesis served as efficient combi tools for scaffold construction. Detailed NMR investigations in different solvent (systems) provide evidence for a deep-seated configurational misassignment of the molecule named lytophilippine A.

Boron-mediated aldol reaction of carboxylic esters: Complementary anti- and syn-selective asymmetric aldol reactions
The boron-mediated aldol reaction of carboxylic esters is described in detail. Contrary to the general belief that carboxylic esters are inert under the condition of the boron enolate formation, propionate esters are enolized with certain combinations of a boron triflate and an amine. More importantly, the stereochemical course of the aldol reaction can be controlled by the judicious selection of the enolization reagents. Treatment of propionate esters with c-Hex2BOTf and triethylamine produces anti-aldol products, and that with Bu2BOTf and diisopropylethylamine gives syn-aldol products selectively after reaction with aldehydes. Complementary anti- and syn-selective asymmetric aldol reactions with structurally related, readily available chiral norephedrine-derived propionate esters are developed.

The synthesis and evaluation of a solution phase indexed combinatorial library of non-natural polyenes for reversal of p-glycoprotein mediated multidrug resistance
A combinatorial library of polyenes, based on (-)-stipiamide, has been constructed and evaluated for the discovery of new multidrug resistance reversal agents. A palladium coupling was used to react each individual vinyl iodide with a mixture of the seven acetylenes at near 1:1 stoichiometry. The coupling was also used to react each individual acetylene with the mixture of six vinyl iodides to create 13 pools indexed in two dimensions for a total of 42 compounds. Individual compounds were detected at equimolar concentration. The vinyl iodides, made initially using a crotylborane addition to generate the anti1,2-hydroxylmethyl products, were now made using a more efficient norephedrine propionate boron enolate aldol reaction. The indexed approach, ideally suited for cellular assays that involve membrane-bound targets, allowed for the rapid identification of reversal agents using assays with drug-resistant human breast cancer MCF7-adrR cells. Intersections of potent pools identified new compounds with promising activity. Aryl dimension pools showed R = ph and naphthyl as the most potent. The acetylene dimension had R' = phenylalaninol and alaninol as the most potent. Isolated individual compounds, both active and nonpotent, were assayed to confirm the library results. The most potent new compound was 4ek (R = naphthyl, R' = phenylaninol) at 1.45 μM. Other nonnatural individual naphthyl-amide compounds showed potent MDR reversal including the morpholino-amide 4ej (1.69 μM). Synergistic activities attributed to the two ends of the molecule were also identified. Direct interaction with Pgp was established by ATPase and photoaffinity displacement assays. The results indicate that both ends of the polyene reversal agent are involved in Pgp interaction and can be further modified for increased potency.
