Total Synthesis of Euonymine and Euonyminol Octaacetate
JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN CHEMICAL SOCIETY(2021)
摘要
Euonymine (1) and euonyminol octaacetate (2) share the core structure of euonyminol (3), the most hydroxylated member of the dihydro-beta-agarofuran family. In 2, eight of the nine hydroxy groups of 3 are acetylated, and 1 has six acetyl groups and a 14-membered bislactone comprising a pyridine dicarboxylic acid with two methyl groups. The different acylation patterns provide distinct biological activities: 1 and 2 display anti-HIV and P-glycoprotein inhibitory effects, respectively. The 11 contiguous stereocenters and 9 oxygen functionalities of the ABC-ring system of 1 and 2 represent a formidable challenge, which is further heightened by the macrocyclic structure of 1. Here we disclose an efficient synthetic strategy for enantioselective total synthesis of 1 and 2. Starting from (R)-glycerol acetonide, we constructed the Bring by an Et3N-accelerated Diels-Alder reaction, the C-ring by intramolecular iodoetherification, and the A-ring by ring-closing olefin metathesis. The 10 stereocenters were installed through a series of substrate-controlled stereoselective C-C and C-O bond formations by exploiting the three-dimensional structures of judiciously designed substrates. These newly developed reaction sequences led to protected euonyminol 5, which served as a common intermediate for assembling 1 and 2. Global deprotection of 5 and subsequent acetylation produced 2. Alternatively, the discriminative protective groups of 5 allowed for site-selective bisesterification to generate bislactone. Combining [3 + 2]-cycloaddition and reductive desulfurization introduced the last remaining stereocenters of the two methyl groups on the macrocycle. Finally, deprotection and acetylation gave rise to fully synthetic 1 for the first time.
