Asymmetric synthesis of (+)-1-deoxynojirimycin and (+)-castanospermine

Asymmetric total syntheses of (+)-1-deoxynojirimycin (1) and (+)-castanospermine (2) are described. Starting from diene 3, the required absolute stereochemistry is introduced by an asymmetric hydroxylation followed by epoxidation. An intramolecular cyclization of amine 17 gives access to the corresponding tetrasubstituted piperidine 18, which is a precursor to compounds 1 and 2. (+)-Deoxynojirimicyn (1) was obtained in 36% yield over 11 steps from diene 3, while (+)-castanospermine (2) was achieved in 13% after 19 steps from the same starting material.

Asymmetric synthesis of oxygen heterocycles via Pd-catalyzed dynamic kinetic asymmetric transformations: application to nucleosides

Racemic butadiene and isoprene monoepoxide react with unsaturated alcohols in the presence of a chiral palladium catalyst and a boron co-catalyst to give 3-alkoxy-4-hydroxy-1-butene and 3-alkoxy-4-hydroxy-3-methyl-1-butene, respectively, with excellent regio- and enantioselectivity in a dynamic kinetic asymmetric transformation whereby both enantiomers of the starting epoxides provide the same enantiomeric product. In the case of 2-phenylbutadiene monoepoxide, easily available from phenacyl chloride and vinylmagnesium bromide, the reaction proceeds by kinetic resolution. A model to rationalize the result is presented. The bis-olefin products are ideal substrates for the Ru catalyzed ring closing metathesis. In this way, five-, six-, and seven-membered oxygen heterocycles are readily available enantiomerically pure. The value of this very simple two step process is demonstrated by the use of the five-membered ring heterocycles to form unnatural and unusual nucleosides that cannot be easily accessed by other means. The sequence involves a Ru catalyzed isomerization of the initial 2,5-dihydrofuran to a 2,3-dihydrofuran followed by a selenium promoted addition of a pyrimidine or purine base. One advantage of this strategy is the easy access to either enantiomeric series, both of which have important biological applications.     

Asymmetric synthesis of antimicrotubule biaryl hybrids of allocolchicine and steganacin

The asymmetric synthesis of novel axially chiral biaryl compounds 5 a-f containing a seven- or eight-membered heterocyclic medium ring is described. These molecules can be considered to be structural hybrids of allocolchicine- and steganacin-type natural products. The synthesis featured an atropo-diastereoselective biaryl Suzuki coupling in which a benzylic stereocenter efficiently transferred its stereochemical information to the biaryl axis. The coupling conditions were optimized, and two biphenylphosphane ligands (DavePhos and S-Phos) were found to give the highest yields and diastereoselectivities. A three-element stereochemical model was proposed to explain the observed diastereoselectivities. In a second key step, the medium ring of the target molecules was formed by a stereoselective S(N)1-type cyclodehydration that probably involved a configurationally stable carbocationic intermediate, as supported by calculations. Alternatively, S(N)2-type cyclizations were employed on the same Suzuki coupling products to give the target molecules in a stereodivergent or stereoconvergent manner. These cyclization methods furnished the target hybrid analogues 5 a-f with ee values above 94 %. All analogues were evaluated as antimicrotubule agents and against a panel of cancer-cell lines using colchicine (1) and N-acetylcolchinol (3) as references. Promising activities were found for R,aR-configured compounds 5 a, b and 5 f; in particular, ethyl analogue 5 b showed a twofold antimicrotubule activity relative to colchicine.

Catalytic Asymmetric Total Synthesis of Leucinostatin A

This review describes our efforts toward achieving catalytic asymmetric total synthesis of leucinostatin A, a compound that interferes with the tumor‐stroma interaction. The synthesis utilizes four catalytic asymmetric reactions, including direct‐type reactions exemplified by high atom‐economy, and three C?C bond forming reactions. Thorough analysis of the NMR data, HPLC profiles, and biologic activity led us to unambiguously revise the absolute configuration regarding the 6‐position of the AHMOD residue side chain from S (reported) to R. Other examples of previously reported important studies on the stereoselective synthesis of HyLeu and AHMOD are also described.
