Tetrahydrolipstatin: Thermal and hydrolytic degradation

, p. 1022 - 1036 (2007/10/02)
The thermal and hydrolytic degradation of tetrahydrolipstatin (THL, 1) was investigated. All main degradation products were isolated, characterized, and synthesized. Labile intermediates unavailable to isolation were detected and identified by GC/MS analysis of their silylated derivatives, and whenever possible, compared with independently prepared reference compounds. The identified degradation products represent at least 97% of the total degradation mixture. Two main reaction pathways are proposed. Pharmacological data are reported for the degradation mixture and the main degradation products.
Synthesis of Tetrahydrolipstatin and Tetrahydroesterastin, Compounds with a β-Lactone Moiety. Stereoselective Hydrogenation of a β-Keto δ-Lactone and Convertion of the δ-Lactone into a β-Lactone

Stereoselective syntheses of tetrahydrolipstatin (1) and tetrahydroesterastin (2) are described.The key intermediate β-ketoδ-lactone 7 is hydrogenated stereoselectively to yield hydroxy δ-lactone 9, which is transformed into hydroxy β-lactone 10.Esterification of 10 with (S)-N-formylleucine under Mitsunobu's conditions yields tetrahydrolipstatin (1).Esterification of 10 with (S)-N-acetylasparagine under the same conditions yields 17 (mixture of two diastereomers), which gives by saponification hydroxy β-lactone 18.Reaction of the latter with the mixed anhydride of (S)-N-Z-asparagine, hydrogenation, and acetylation give tetrahydroesterastin (2).
