Abstract: | A highly stereocontrolled total synthesis of the 18-membered macrolide (+)-concanamycin F, a potent inhibitor of vacuolar ATPases, is described that proceeds in 5.8% yield over 26 steps. The three key fragments, C1-C13 vinyl iodide, C14-C22 vinyl stannane and C23-C28 aldehyde, were efficiently constructed using asymmetric boron-mediated aldol reactions of appropriate chiral ketone building blocks. The nature of the silyl protection of the C7/C9 hydroxyls proved to be critical for achieving macrocyclisation, with TES ethers being superior to a cyclic silylene derivative. Following a Liebeskind-Stille cross-coupling reaction between the C1-C13 vinyl iodide and C14-C22 vinyl stannane fragments to assemble the (12E,14E)-diene, a modified Yamaguchi macrolactonisation delivered the requisite 18-membered macrocyclic core. This advanced intermediate was also obtained by an alternative sequence using an esterification step to connect the C1-C13 and C14-C22 fragments followed by a Pd-catalysed intramolecular Stille reaction to install the (12E,14E)-diene. Conversion of the resulting macrocyclic intermediate into a methyl ketone then enabled a highly diastereoselective Mukaiyama aldol coupling of the derived silyl enol ether with the C13-C28 aldehyde fragment to install the fully elaborated side chain, whereby subsequent global deprotection of the resulting β-hydroxyketone under suitable conditions (TASF followed by p-TsOH) afforded (+)-concanamycin F. |
