Total synthesis of ( - )-spirangien A, an antimitotic polyketide isolated from the myxobacterium Sorangium Cellulosum
Paterson, Ian,Findlay, Alison D.,Noti, Christian
experimental part, p. 594 - 611 (2010/04/23)
An expedient first total synthesis of (-)-spirangien A, a potent cytotoxic and antifungal polyketide of myxobacterial origin, is described. By using a common 1,3-diol intermediate obtained by an efficient aldol-reduction sequence for installation of the C
A practical synthesis of (+)-discodermolide and analogues: Fragment union by complex aldol reactions
Paterson,Florence,Gerlach,Scott,Sereinig
, p. 9535 - 9544 (2007/10/03)
A practical stereocontrolled synthesis of (+)-discodermolide (1) has been completed in 10.3% overall yield (23 steps longest linear sequence). The absolute stereochemistry of the C1-C6 (7), C9-C16 (8), and Csub
Total synthesis of the antimicrotubule agent (+)-discodermolide using boron-mediated aldol reactions of chiral ketones
Paterson, Ian,Florence, Gordon J.,Gerlach, Kai,Scott, Jeremy P.
, p. 377 - 380 (2007/10/03)
With a similar mechanism of action to taxol, the title compound 1 is a particularly promising candidate for development in cancer chemotherapy. This efficient synthesis, based on stereocontrolled aldol reactions, should help to overcome the scarce natural
