The invention discloses a stereoselective total synthesis method of (2R, 4 'R, 8' R)-alpha-tocopherol. The method comprises the following steps: performing iodination on trimethylhydroquinone serving as a raw material to generate aromatic halide, and performing Heck reaction and Pd/C hydrogenation on the aromatic halide and diester containing a terminal olefinic bond to form saturated aromatic diester; then diester is selectively hydrolyzed to generate monoester with high optical activity, and a chiral three-dimensional center is constructed; then carrying out methylsulfonyl chlorination and lithium aluminum hydride reduction to form a methyl-containing chiral compound; carrying out oxidation ring closing and hydrogenation reduction to construct a chiral chroman mother nucleus; then carrying out benzyl protection and Wittig reaction, and realizing carbon-carbon bond connection with C15 * fat long-chain phosphine salt; finally, double bonds are reduced to obtain (2R, 4 'R, 8' R)-alpha-tocopherol I. The method has the advantages that the raw materials are easy to obtain, the reaction condition is mild, the operation is simple and convenient, the used lipase has good stability, the catalytic form is green and environment-friendly, and the industrial application value is realized.

The disclosure provides therapeutic compositions (i.e., therapeutic agents) and methods of preventing or treating Friedreich's ataxia in a mammalian subject, reducing risk factors, signs and/or symptoms associated with Friedreich's ataxia (e.g. Complex I deficiency), and/or reducing the likelihood or severity of Friedreich's ataxia. The disclosure further provides novel intermediates for the production of said therapeutic compositions and related reduced versions of said therapeutic compositions, which reduce forms may also be used as therapeutic agents (or prodrugs of the therapeutic agent(s)).

Catalytic enantioselective halocyclization of 2-alkenylphenols and enamides have been achieved through the use of chiral amidophosphate catalysts and halo-Lewis acids. Density functional theory calculations suggested that the Lewis basicity of the catalyst played an important role in the reactivity and enantioselectivity. The resulting chiral halogenated chromans can be transformed to α-Tocopherol, α-Tocotrienol, Daedalin A and Englitazone in short steps. Furthermore, a halogenated product with an unsaturated side chain may provide polycyclic adducts under radical cyclization conditions.

We established a facile access to an unexplored mirror-image library of chiral natural product derivatives using d-protein technology. In this process, two chemical syntheses of mirror-image substances including a target protein and hit compound(s) allow the lead discovery from a virtual mirror-image library without the synthesis of numerous mirror-image compounds.

A simple one-dimensional 13C NMR method is presented to discriminate between stereoisomers of organic compounds with more than one chiral center. By means of this method it is possible to discriminate between all eight stereoisomers of α-tocopherol. To achieve this the chiral solvating agent (S)-(+)-1-(9-anthryl)-2,2,2-trifluoroethanol and the compound of interest were dissolved in high concentrations in chloroform-d, and the nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrum was recorded at a low temperature. The individual stereoisomers of α-tocopherol were assigned by spikes of the reference compounds. The method was also applied to six other representative examples.

α-TEA, RRR-α-tocopherol ether linked acetic acid, exhibits potent anticancer actions in vitro and in vivo; whereas, the parent molecule has no anticancer activity. In this study, we incorporated fluorine at the chroman head and/or ether linkage between the chroman head and phytyl tail of α-TEA as well as RRR-α-tocopherol to synthesize 6 vitamin E derivatives, and evaluated the anticancer actions in vitro for ability to induce cell death by apoptosis of human MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell lines and mouse mammary cancer cell line 66cl-4GFP. All derivatives, with the exception of compound 12, exhibited anticancer properties. The modified α-TEA ether-type phytyl group exhibited the highest pro-apoptotic activity in comparison with α-TEA as well as other vitamin E derivatives.

(S)-(-)-6-Benzyloxy-2,5,7,8-tetramethyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-1-benzopyran-2- ylmethanol, a synthon for the design of natural α-tocopherol, was obtained by kinetically selective acetylation of the corresponding racemic alcohol in the presence of the Amano PS lipase from Burkholderia cepacia in the ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolinium hexafluorophosphate ([bmim]PF6).

(Chemical Equation Presented) The direct approach: The efficient use of substrate control has served as the basis for the enantioselective total synthesis of (R,R,R)-α-tocopherol. A single reagent directing group (ortho-diphenylphosphanyl benzoate, o-DPPB) served to control the stereoselectivity of a rhodium-catalyzed hydroformylation reaction and the directed allylic substitution as the fragment-coupling step (see picture).
