A copper-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of amino acid-derived amides and (Z)-vinyl iodide was studied to improve a key step in the synthesis of plocabulin, a novel microtubule destabilizer agent of marine origin. The study revealed a profound solvent effect with 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME), which gave consistently high yields across a large variety of the amide and (Z)-vinyl iodide substrates. The protocol was successfully utilized in the preparation of plocabulin and provided a significantly improved yield.

(E)-1-iodo-1-alkenes 4 can be prepared stereoselectively from aldehydes 1 via IH-elimination of 1,1-di-iodoalkanes 3 with DBU. Key words: Vinyl iodide; diiodoalkane; elimination; stereoselectivity.
