The total syntheses of the marine-derived lipopeptide natural product fellutamide B and deoxy-fellutamides B, C, and D are reported. These compounds were accessed through a novel solid-phase synthetic strategy using Weinreb amide-derived resin. As part of the synthesis, a new enantioselective route to (3R)-hydroxy lauric acid was developed utilizing a Brown allylation reaction followed by an oxidative cleavage-oxidation sequence as the key steps. The activity of these natural products, and natural product analogues was also assessed against Mycobacterium tuberculosis in vitro.

The enantioface-differentiating hydrogenation of methyl 3-oxoalkanoate (CH3(CH2)nCOCH2COOCH3, n=0, 6, 8, 10, 12) over the (R,R)-tartaric acid-NaBr-modified Raney nickel catalyst ((R,R)-TA-NaBr-MRNi) gave methyl (R)-3-hydroxyalkanoate (CH3(CH2)nCH(OH)CH2COOCH3, n=0, 6, 8, 10, 12) in an average optical yield of 85percent.After the methyl ester had been converted to dicyclohexylammonium salt of 3-hydroxyalkanoic acid, the salt was recrystallized three times from acetonitrile and then treated with acid to give optically pure (R)-3-hydroxyalkanoic acid (CH3(CH2)nCH(OH)CH2COOH, n=0, 6, 8, 10, 12) in a reasonable yield.From the hydrogenation product with (S,S)-TA-NaBr-MRNi, optically pure (S)-3-hydroxyalkanoic acid was obtained by the same process as above.
