Diastereoselective total synthesis of (+)-morusimic acid B, an amino acid from Morus alba

Add time:08/18/2019    Source:sciencedirect.com

An efficient, flexible and diastereoselective synthesis of the naturally occurring pyrrolidine amino acid, (+)-morusimic acid B, has been accomplished. Starting from chiral, optically active (+)-(3S)-hydroxy butyric acid methyl ester the key steps of our synthesis are diastereoselective α-alkylation of its dianion to introduce the main part of the side chain, Curtius rearrangement of the hydrazide derivative to a 2-oxazolidinone followed by N→π-cyclization with mercury(II) acetate to generate the cis-2,5-disubstituted pyrrolidine ring. The remote C-3 stereocentre is established after chain elongation with the dianion of methyl acetoacetate and asymmetric hydrogenation of the resulting β-oxoester with Noyori's Ru(II)-(R)-BINAP catalyst.
