We report herein the scalable total synthesis of the secondary metabolite, mycocyclosin, initially isolated from Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Mycocylosin bears a highly strained 3,3′-dityrosine biaryl system which arises biosynthetically from an intramolec

An efficient four-step synthetic strategy for cis-2,5-disubstituted chiral piperazines derived from amino-acid-based aziridines is described. The key steps in this strategy are the highly regioselective boron trifluoride diethyl etherate (BF3·OEt2)-mediated ring-opening of less-reactive N-Ts chiral aziridines by α-amino acid methyl ester hydrochloride followed by Mitsunobu cyclization. This protocol has been used in an attempt to construct the piperazine core framework of natural product (+)-piperazinomycin.

Organic Chemistry of L-Tyrosine. 1. General Synthesis of Chiral Piperazines from Amino Acids

A new method for the conversion of optically active diketopiperazines (cyclo-dipeptides) into optically pure piperazines is described.Due to poor solubility of certain cyclo-dityrosine derivatives, the usual method using lithium aluminum hydride reaction was problematic, giving racemization under forcing conditions.However, the use of borane/tetrahydrofuran for this diketopiperazine to piperazine reduction proceeded well, affording high yields of optically pure materials.In this manner several mixed cyclo-dityrosine derivatives 9a-d were transformed into the piperazines 10a-d, potentially useful intermediates for the synthesis of the antibiotic alkaloids, piperazinomycin (1) and herquline (2).Finally, the naturally occuring alkaloid isolated from Zanthoxylum arborescens, 7b was prepared by this route.
