[reaction: see text] The first synthesis of the shark repellent pavoninin-4, 3, was achieved in 12 steps with 21% overall yield from diosgenin, 8. Key reactions involve an efficient synthesis of the C-15alpha hydroxyl steroid from a C-16beta hydroxyl steroid by an unexpected 1,2-transposition strategy, a stereospecific glycosylation of a hindered C-15alpha alcohol using glycosyl fluoride as a glycosyl donor and a highly chemoselective acetylation of the C-26 primary alcohol by catalytic transesterification.
[反应:见正文] 鲨鱼驱避剂帕沃宁-4(3)的首次全合成以薯蓣皂苷元为起始原料,经过12步反应完成,总收率为21%。关键反应包括通过意外的1,2-转位策略从C-16β羟基甾体高效合成C-15α羟基甾体,使用氟代糖作为糖基供体对受阻的C-15α醇进行立体选择性糖基化,以及通过催化酯交换对C-26伯醇进行高度化学选择性乙酰化。 8
