Herein, we report a robust total synthesis of dictyostatin. This polyketide natural product has attracted much attention because of its impressive antiproliferative activity against several human cancer-cell lines. We accomplished its synthesis in a highly convergent manner from three fragments of equal complexity, which were prepared on multigram scale. The southern and northwestern subunits were constructed through application of our o-DPPB-directed hydroformylation and allylic substitution methodology, respectively. These methods generated the C6 and C14 stereocenters of dictyostatin with good diastereoselectivities and simultaneously allowed further elaboration of the fragments by Wittig olefination and Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation, respectively. The compelling performance of the hydroformylation and allylic substitution with regard to practicability, selectivity, and scale underline their value for the construction of propionate motifs.

An efficient, convergent and stereocontrolled synthesis of simplified analogues of the potent antimitotic agent (+)-discodermolide has been achieved and several small libraries have been prepared. In all the libraries, the discodermolide methyl groups at
1,6-asymmetric induction in boron-mediated aldol reactions: application to a practical total synthesis of (+)-discodermolide.
Paterson, Ian,Delgado, Oscar,Florence, Gordon J,Lyothier, Isabelle,Scott, Jeremy P,Sereinig, Natascha
, p. 35 - 38 (2007/10/03)
By relying solely on substrate-based stereocontrol, a practical total synthesis of the microtubule-stabilizing anticancer agent (+)-discodermolide has been realized. This exploits a novel aldol bond construction with 1,6-stereoinduction from the boron eno
