Enantioselective synthesis of oseltamivir phosphate

The key steps in the enantioselective synthesis of Tamiflu include an asymmetric Diels-Alder reaction, Mitsunobu inversion using Fukuyama modified Weinreb reagent, carbamate directed epoxidation. Epoxide opening with trimethylsilyl azide furnished a 3:1 mixture of regioisomers that converged to afford the same aziridine. Attempted preparation of the unsaturated ester regioselectively using 2-iodoxybenzoic acid (IBX) following Nicolaou's protocol failed. The unsaturated ester was prepared by phenylselenylation followed by selenoxide elimination.

A novel synthetic route towards oseltamivir, an influenza neuraminidase inhibitor, has been achieved employing a cationic iron carbonyl complex, providing an alternate pathway with the potential to access diverse analogues. The Royal Society of Chemistry.
