(4E,8E,10E)-9-Methyl-4,8,10-sphingatrienine, a core component of marine sphingolipids, was synthesised for the first time using a copper(I)-mediated 1,2-metallate rearrangement of a lithiated glycal as a key step. It was converted to phalluside-1, a cerebroside isolated from the ascidian Phallusia fumigate. By an analogous route, (4E,8E)-9-methyl-4,8-sphingadiene was synthesised and converted to Sch II, a cerebroside that induces fruiting body formation in the basidiomycete Schizophyllum commune.
(4E,8E,10E)-9-甲基-4,8,10-二十碳三烯碱,一种海洋神经鞘脂类的核心成分,首次通过铜(I)介导的锂化糖醛 1,2-金属重排反应合成,该反应是关键步骤。它被转化为来源于 Phallusia fumigate 的神经节苷脂 1。通过类似的途径,(4E,8E)-9-甲基-4,8-二十碳二烯碱被合成,并转化为 Sch II,一种在担子菌 Schizophyllum commune 中诱导子实体形成的神经节苷脂。
