Abstract: | We have described the synthesis of the two complex units (2R,3R,4S)-dolaproine (Dap) and (3R,4S,5S)-dolaisoleuine (Dil) of dolastatin 10 from natural amino acids. The stereoselective syntheses of N-Boc-Dap (4a) and N-Boc-(2S)-iso-Dap (4b) were performed by employing crotylation of N-Boc-l-prolinal as a key step. Barbier-type allylation of N-Boc-l-isoleucinal provided a mild and convenient approach for the synthesis of N-Boc-Dil (5a) and N-Boc-(3S)-iso-Dil (5b). Ten dolastatin 10 analogues have been designed and synthesized with N-terminal modifications based on the known compound monomethylauristatin F (MMAF, 3). In comparison with MMAF (3), four of the compounds showed enhanced potency against HCT 116 human colon cancer cells in vitro. |
