Chemical variation of natural product-like scaffolds: Design and synthesis of spiroketal derivatives
Zinzalla, Giovanna,Milroy, Lech-Gustav,Ley, Steven V.
, p. 1977 - 2002 (2008/02/04)
The design and synthesis of spiroketal structures and their chemical modification, leading to a collection of new small molecules for biological evaluation as orally-bioavailable lead compounds is described. Both [6,5]- and [6,6]-membered ring spiroketal units have been prepared in a stereochemically-varying fashion starting from commercially available (R)- or (S)-glycidol, in ten, eleven and twelve linear steps, in overall yields of 45, 40 and 20%, respectively. Further elaboration according to Lipinski's guidelines has given a collection of structurally-diverse, new spiroketal derivatives in high yields and with high purity.

The work describes the efficient double conjugate addition of ethane and propane dithiols in the presence of sodium methoxide to a wide variety of propargylic carbonyl containing compounds. The products of these reactions are differentiated, 1,3-dicarbony
Synthetic studies on azaspiracid, a novel shellfish poison: Attempts to construct the ABCD ring system
Ishikawa, Yuichi,Nishiyama, Shigeru
, p. 539 - 565 (2007/10/03)
Synthesis of the ABCD ring system of azaspiracid (1) was attempted. Construction of the highly substituted tetrahydrofuran (9) via the Pd(0)-mediated cyclization, followed by spirocyclization afforded trispiro-ring (28), carrying an unnatural ring-junctions. The BCD ring system of I was successfully produced by using the bridge of a sulfur atom between the B and C ring to control the spiroacetal center of the C13 position. The stereostructures were unambiguously determined by the NOE experiments.
