The Absolute Configuration of the Spermine Alkaloid Aphelandrine

, p. 1012 - 1016 (1986)
The relative configuration of aphelandrine (1) was established by X-ray structure determination.The absolute configuration of the centers 11 and 18 was determined earlier by chiroptic measurements.Therefore, structure 1 with the configurations 11S, 17S, and 18S represents the absolute configuration of aphelandrine.In the presence of base, 1 was converted to (11S, 17R, 18R)-orantine (2).The 1H-NMR coupling constants between H-C(17) and H-C(18) (part of the dihydrofuran ring) are very much dependent on the substituent pattern of the amino N-atoms N(6) and N(10).

The stereocontrolled total synthesis of (-)-ephedradine A (1) has been accomplished. Construction of optically active dihydrobenzofuran-ring was performed by a novel asymmetric C-H insertion reaction. After an intramolecular ester-amide exchange reaction and a Sharpless asymmetric aminohydroxylation reaction, construction of the complex macrocyclic ring was performed by Ns-strategy and an intramolecular aza-Wittig reaction.

The stereocontrolled total synthesis of (-)-ephedradine A has been accomplished. The synthesis features an asymmetric C-H insertion reaction, an intramolecular ester-amide exchange reaction, and a Sharpless asymmetric aminohydroxylation reaction. Construction of the complex macrocyclic ring was performed by Ns-strategy and an intramolecular aza-Wittig reaction. Copyright
Biomimetic formation of macrocyclic spermine alkaloids

Dihydroxyverbacine (10), a precursor for oxidative phenol coupling, was obtained via (±)-buchnerine (14), whose synthesis is described. The oxidizing system hemin (ferriprotoporphyrin IX chloride)/H2O2 promoted intramolecular coupling of 10 to give the alkaloids aphelandrine (1), orantine (2), and chaenorpine (7). The alkaloids were identified by on-line coupled HPLC and atmospheric-pressure chemical-ionization (APCI) mass spectrometry.
