The total synthesis of (-)-colombiasin A (2) and (-)-elisapterosin B (3) has been achieved. The key step is a C-H functionalization process, the combined C-H activation/Cope rearrangement, between methyl (E)-2-diazo-3-pentenoate and 1-methyl-1,2-dihydronaphthalenes. When the reaction is catalyzed by dirhodium tetrakis((R)-(N-dodecylbenzenesulfonyl)prolinate), Rh(2)(R-DOSP)(4), an enantiomer differentiation step occurs where one enantiomer of the dihydronaphthalene undergoes the combined C-H activation/Cope rearrangement while the other undergoes cyclopropanation. This sequence controls the three key stereocenters in the natural products such that the remainder of the synthesis is feasible using standard chemistry.
(-)-哥伦比亚菌素A(2)和(-)-埃利沙萜素B(3)的全合成已经实现。关键步骤是一个C-H官能化过程,即(E)-2-重氮-3-戊烯酸甲酯与1-甲基-1,2-二氢萘之间的C-H活化/Cope重排反应。当反应由四[(R)-(N-十二烷基苯磺酰基)脯氨酸根]二铑(Rh(2)(R-DOSP)(4))催化时,会发生对映体分化步骤,其中二氢萘的一种对映体进行C-H活化/Cope重排反应,而另一种对映体发生环丙烷化反应。该序列控制了天然产物中的三个关键立体中心,使得使用标准化学方法进行其余的合成成为可能。
