"Endo" and "exo" bicyclo[4.2.0]-octadiene isomers from the electrocyclization of fully substituted tetraene models for SNF 4435C and D. control of stereochemistry by choice of a functionalized substituent.

[reaction: see text] A tandem electrocyclic closure, perceived as the key step in a biomimetic approach to SNF 4435C and D, was tested with 1,1,8-trisubstituted tetraene substrates. The ratio of endo:exo products could be controlled by the choice of the RZ substituent at C-1. On the basis of these results, a short stereoselective route to an advanced SNF 4435 intermediate was devised.

Kitungolides A, B, and C, new diterpenes from a soft coral of a new genus.

Three novel compounds, designated kitungolides A (1), B (2), and C (3), were isolated from a soft coral of a new genus collected at Kitungamwe, Kenya. The three new compounds are of a unique heterotricyclic skeleton. The structures and relative stereochemistry of the compounds were elucidated by interpretation of MS, COSY, HMQC, HMBC, and NOESY experiments. [structure: see text]

Enantioselective synthesis of 10-epi-anamarine via an iterative dihydroxylation sequence.

[reaction: see text] The enantioselective syntheses of 10-epi-anamarine and 5,10-epi,epi-anamarine have been achieved in 13 to 14 steps. The route relies upon an enantio- and regioselective Sharpless dihydroxylation of either dienoates or trienoates to establish the C-8 to C-11 stereochemistry. A diastereoselective Leighton allylation established the desired C-5 stereochemistry. The route also relies upon a ring-closing metathesis to establish the alpha,beta-unsaturated lactones.

Design, synthesis, and evaluation of carbamate-substituted analogues of (+)-discodermolide.

[Structure: see text] The design, syntheses, and biological evaluation of 22 totally synthetic analogues of the potent microtubule-stabilizing agent (+)-discodermolide (1) have been achieved. Structure-activity relationships of the C(19) carbamate were defined, exploiting two synthetically simplified scaffolds, as well as the parent (+)-discodermolide framework.

Design, synthesis, and evaluation of analogues of (+)-14-normethyldiscodermolide.

[Structure: see text] The design, syntheses, and biological evaluation of nine totally synthetic analogues of the microtubule-stabilizing agent (+)-14-normethyldiscodermolide (2) are reported. Simplification at the C(21)-C(24) terminal diene and at the C(1)-C(5) lactone moieties reveals significant structure-activity relationships.

Ring-closing metathesis approach to dictyostatin.

[reaction: see text] An esterification/ring-closing metathesis approach to dictyostatin and discodermolide is introduced. The approach provides for facile fragment coupling of two main segments of these natural products at the C10-C11 alkene with high to complete Z-selectivity.

Total synthesis of (+)-discodermolide: an improved endgame exploiting a Still-Gennari-type olefination with a C1-C8 beta-ketophosphonate fragment.

[structure: see text] An improved, third-generation, total synthesis of (+)-discodermolide, a potent microtubule-stabilizing anticancer agent of marine sponge origin, is achieved in 11.1% yield over 21 steps. Key steps include a Still-Gennari HWE olefination, performed using NaH as the base, between C1-C8 beta-ketophosphonate 7 and C9-C24 aldehyde 8, introducing the (8Z)-alkene with 10:1 selectivity, and K-Selectride reduction of the derived enone 16, installing the (7S)-configuration.

First asymmetric synthesis of the cyclohexanone subunit of baconipyrones A and B. Revision of its structure.

[reaction: see text] An asymmetric synthesis of the 3,5-dihydroxycyclohexanone subunit of baconipyrones A and B, as well as that of the hydroxydiketone subunit of baconipyrones C and D ((-)-(4S,6S)-4,6-dimethyl-5-hydroxynonan-3,7-dione), is described. Key steps include sulfur dioxide-induced additions of enoxysilanes to 1,3-dioxy-1,3-dienes, followed by retro-ene desulfitations (retro-ene elimination of SO(2)).

Versatile asymmetric synthesis of the kavalactones: first synthesis of (+)-kavain.

[reaction: see text] Three asymmetric pathways to the kavalactones have been developed. The first method is chiral auxiliary-based and utilizes aldol reactions of N-acetyl thiazolidinethiones followed by a malonate displacement/decarboxylation reaction. The second approach uses the asymmetric catalytic Mukaiyama additions of dienolate nucleophile equivalents developed by Carreira and Sato. Finally, tin-substituted intermediates, prepared by either of these routes, can serve as advanced general precursors of kavalactone derivatives via Pd(0)-catalyzed Stille couplings with aryl halides.

Total synthesis of (+)-discodermolide: a highly convergent fourth-generation approach.

[structure: see text] A highly convergent, fourth-generation total synthesis of (+)-discodermolide (1), with a longest linear sequence of 17 steps and an overall yield of 9.0%, has been achieved. Highlighting the strategy is the efficient construction and sequential, bidirectional union of a linchpin comprising the C(9)-C(14) Wittig salt-vinyl iodide (-)-18. Importantly, Wittig salt generation proceeded in excellent yield under ambient pressure.
