The synthesis of several A and AE ring analogues of the alkaloid methyllycaconitine is reported. The key 2-(2″-methylsuccinimido)benzoate ester pharmacophore is introduced using an efficient two step procedure. Esterification of the alcohol precursors with N-(trifluoroacetyl)anthranilic acid under Steglich conditions followed by sodium borohydride mediated cleavage of the trifluoroacetyl group affords the anthranilate esters. Subsequent fusion with methylsuccinic anhydride affords the N-substituted anthranilate derivatives containing the key pharmacophore present in a range of commonly occurring Delphinium and Aconitum alkaloids.
A high yielding synthesis of anthranilate esters from sterically hindered alcohols

A high yielding and operationally simple synthesis of anthranilate esters derived from primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols is reported. Esterification of the alcohol with N-(trifluoroacetyl)anthranilic acid under Steglich conditions, followed by sodium borohydride mediated cleavage of the trifluoroacetyl group affords the anthranilate ester. This new method has application in the synthesis of the ester sidechains of the commonly occurring Delphinium and Aconitum alkaloids and their analogues.
