Abstract: | [reaction: see text] A strategy for the concise synthesis of trehazolamine, the aminocyclitol core of the potent trehalase inhibitor trehazolin, has been developed. The methodology takes advantage of photocyclization reaction of 1-methoxyethoxymethyl-3-pivaloxymethylpyridinium perchlorate to generate a bicyclic-aziridine intermediate, which is transformed under aziridine ring opening conditions to the key intermediate, 3,5-diacetoxy-3-pivaloxymethyl-4-(N-acetylamino)cyclopentene. In addition, the strategy is used in an enantio-divergent sequence for preparation of the natural (+)-trehazolamine and its unnatural (-)-enantiomer. In this route, the chiral auxiliary containing 1-(tetracetyl-alpha-D-glucosyl)-3-pivaloxymethylpyridinium perchlorate undergoes photocyclization to generate separable, diastereomeric bicyclic-aziridines, which are then independently transformed to enantiomeric 3,5-diacetoxy-3-pivaloxymethyl-4-(N-acetylamino)cyclopentenes. |
