The kalimantacins make up a family of hybrid polyketide-nonribosomal peptide-derived natural products that display potent and selective antibiotic activity against multidrug resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus. Herein, we report the first total synthesis of kalimantacin A, in which three fragments are prepared and then united via Sonogashira and amide couplings. The enantioselective synthetic approach is convergent, unlocking routes to further kalimantacins and analogues for structure-activity relationship studies and clinical evaluation.

A synthesis strategy for the production of a key synthetic intermediate of gulmirecin A was described. The key reaction in the preparation of the 12-membered macrolactone is the Ni(0)-mediated reductive cyclization reaction of ynal using an N-heterocyclic carbene ligand and silane reductant. In addition, the α-selective glycosylation reaction of the macrolactone was performed to demonstrate the synthesis of gulmirecin and disciformycin precursors.

A three-component coupling procedure was developed to construct the entire prostaglandin (PG) skeleton under HMPA-free and stoichiometric conditions via a combination of dimethylzinc-aided conjugate addition of an ω-side-chain vinyllithium with (R)-4-hydroxy-2-cyclopentenone and the direct trapping of the resulting enolate with an α-side-chain propargyl triflate. Dimethylzinc effectively regulated both the conjugate addition and alkynylation reactions. Thus, the method afforded protected 5,6-didehydro-PGE2, a common intermediate for the general synthesis of natural PGs and the stable artificial prostacyclin (PGI2) analog isocarbacyclin in 88% yield. The utility of the method was further applied to the syntheses of novel intermediates, which are useful for the straightforward synthesis of 15R-TIC and 15-deoxy-TIC in 79% and 86% yield, respectively.
