Highly efficient total synthesis of the marine natural products (+)-avarone, (+)-avarol, (-)-neoavarone, (-)-neoavarol and (+)-aureol

Biologically important and structurally unique marine natural products avarone (1), avarol (2), neoavarone (3), neoavarol (4) and aureol (5), were efficiently synthesized in a unified manner starting from (+)-5-methyl-Wieland- Miescher ketone 10. The synthesis involved the following crucial steps: i) Sequential BF3·Et2O-in-duced rearrangement/ cyclization reaction of 2 and 4 to produce 5 with complete stereoselectivity in high yield (2 → 5 and 4 → 5); ii) strategic salcomine oxidation of the phenolic compounds 6 and 8 to derive the corresponding quinones 1 and 3 (6 → 1 and 8 →3); and iii) Birch reductive alkylation of 10 with bromide 11 to construct the requisite carbon framework 12 (10 + 11 → 12). An in vitro cytotoxicity assay of compounds 1-5 against human histiocytic lymphoma cells U937 determined the order of cytotoxic potency (3 > 1 > 5 > 2 > 4) and some novel aspects of structure-activity relationships.

Highly Improved Synthesis of (+)-Aureol via (-)-Neoavarone and (-)-Neoavarol, by Employing Salcomine Oxidation and Acid-Induced Rearrangement/Cyclization Strategy

A short and efficient synthesis of (+)-aureol (1), a structurally novel and biologicaly important marine natural product, was achieved starting with readily available (+)-Wieland-Miescher ketone analogue 7 via (-)-neoavarone (10) and (-)-neoavarol (11). The method features salcomine oxidation of the phenol derivative 9 to deliver 10 and BF3*OEt2-induced rearrangement/cyclization reaction of 11 to produce 1 as the crucial steps. The improvement biomimetic synthesis required only 9 steps and proceeds in 31 percent overall yield.
