12-step program: The combined use of cinchona alkaloid based amine and chiral phosphoric acid enabled the asymmetric alkylation reaction of 3-hydroxyoxindoles with aldehydes to give 3,3'-disubstituted oxindoles in excellent enantioselectivities, which allows for the enantioselective total synthesis of (+)-gliocladin C in 12 steps from 3-hydroxyoxindole with 19 % overall yield (see scheme; PMB = para-methoxybenzyl).
12 步程序:利用金鸡纳生物碱衍生的胺和手性磷酸,实现了 3-羟基吲哚与醛的不对称烷基化反应,以优异的对映选择性得到 3,3'-二取代的吲哚啉,从 3-羟基吲哚啉以 19%的总收率(见方案;PMB=对甲氧基苄基)经过 12 步可以对 (+)-gliocladin C 进行对映选择性全合成。
