The first asymmetric total synthesis of (+)-migrastatin (1), a macrolide natural product with antimetastatic properties, has been accomplished. Our concise and flexible approach utilized a Lewis acid-catalyzed diene aldehyde condensation (LACDAC) to install the three contiguous stereocenters and the trisubstituted (Z)-alkene of migrastatin (2 + 3 → 21). Construction of the two remaining stereocenters and incorporation of the glutarimide-containing side chain was achieved by an anti-selective aldol addition of propionyl oxazolidinone 28 to angelic aldehyde 27, followed by a Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons (HWE) coupling of 32 with glutarimide aldehyde 5. Finally, the assembly of the macrocycle was realized by a highly (E)-selective ring-closing metathesis (35 → 37). Utilizing the power of diverted total synthesis (DTS), a series of otherwise inaccessible analogues was prepared and evaluated for their potential as tumor cell migration inhibitors in several in vitro assays. These studies revealed a dramatic increase in activity when the natural motif was considerably simplified, presenting macrolactones 45 and 48, as well as macrolactam 55, macroketone 60, and CF3-alcohol 71 as promising anti-metastatic agents.

(3Z,2S)-7,7-Ethylenedioxyhex-3-en-2-yl N-phenylcarbamate 7 gave the allylsilane 8, (2E,4S)-7,7-ethylenedioxy-4-dimethyl(phenyl)silylhept-2-ene, introducing one stereogenic centre carrying a silyl group. Hydroboration-oxidation gave (2S,4S)-7,7-ethylenedioxy-4-dimethyl(phenyl)silylheptan-2-ol 9, controlling a second stereogenic centre. Conjugate addition of the phenyldimethylsilylcuprate reagent to the α,β-unsaturated imide (2′E,6′S,8′R,5S)-1-[8′-benzyloxy-6′- dimethyl(phenyl)silylnon-2′-enoyl]-5-triphenylmethoxymethylpyrrolidin-2- one 11 introduced a third stereogenic centre, and methylation of the ester derived from the product introduced a fourth. Ester hydrolysis and a double silyl-to-hydroxy conversion gave (25,3S,6S,8R)-8-benzyloxy-3)6-dihydroxy-2-methylnonanoic acid 16, from which methyl (+)-nonactate 2 was prepared by differentiating the hydroxy groups with the selective formation of a β-lactone 17 rather than a seven-membered lactone.
Alkylation of lithium dienediolates of butenoic acids. Regioselectivity effects of structure and leaving group of the alkylating agent

Regioselectivity of alkylation of but-2-enoic acids I and 2 by alkyl halides strongly depends on the reactivity of the electrophile. High α selectivity results for saturated alkyl halides, whereas poor α-selectivity is obtained for highly reactive allyl and benzyl halides. For reactive alkylating halides selectivity is partly governed by the ion pairing aggregates of the dienediolates. Lithium bromide and the carboxylate generated in the ongoing reaction cause opposite effects on regioselectivity.

The key chiral synthons, (R)-3-isopropenyl-6-heptenoic acid and (R)-3-isopropenyl-6-heptenal, needed for the synthesis of (3Z,6R)-3-methyl-6-isopropenyl-3,9-decadien-1-yl acetate, a component of the sex pheromone of the California red scale, Aonidiella aurantii, have been prepared by asymmetric synthesis.The chiral acid was synthesized in 86percent ee by an asymmetric 1,4-addition of isopropenylmagnesium bromide to the l-ephedrine amide derived from (E)-2,6-heptadienoic acid, followed by base hydrolysis.Acid hydrolysis gave the chiral 3-(3-buten-1-yl)-4,4-dimethylbutyrolactone.The chiral aldehyde was prepared in greater than 99percent ee by an asymmetric 1,4-addition of isopropenylmagnesium bromide to the imine derived from (S)-(+)-tert-butyl 2-amino-3,3-dimethylbutyrate and (E)-2,6-heptadienal.The 1,4-addition reactions of n-butyllithium or isopropenyllithium to (4S,5S)-(+)-2--4-methoxymethyl-5-phenyl-2-oxazoline gave the addition products, and sequential mild hydrolysis and reduction of these adducts yielded chiral 3-n-butyl-6-hepten-1-ol for the former adduct but a mixture of products was obtained from the latter adduct.
