Synthetic studies on the novel fungicidal oligopeptides, echinocandins (1b and 1c), are described.The constituent amino acids 5-8 were synthesized in a stereocontrolled manner from the chiral starting materials, 5a, 6a and 7a, respectively.The coupling of these amino acids was characterized by the use of unprotected amino acid as the C-terminal and 2-pyridyl thiol ester as the N-terminal, and the coupling was performed in the presence of 1-(trimethylsilyl)imidazole (TMSIm) or a catalytic amount of tert-amine to give C-terminal free dipeptides, 14 and 16a, respectively, which were converted to the pentapeptide 17a, a common intermediate for the synthesis of 1b and 1c.The synthesis of 1c was achieved by the cyclization of the hexapeptide 24b.
AN EFFICIENT ROUTE TO 1,3-AMINO HYDROXYL SYSTEM VIA ELECTROPHILIC LACTONIZATION OF 2-AMINO-4-PENTENOIC ACID DERIVATIVES. STEREOSELECTIVE SYNTHESIS OF (-)-BULGECININE

Several γ-hydroxy-α-amino acid systems were prepared stereoselectively from 2-amino-4-pentenoic acid derivatives using electrophilic lactonization.This strategy was applied to the synthesis of a highly functionalized proline analogue, (-)-bulgecinine (4).
