The first enantioselective synthesis of (-)-conolutinine was achieved in 10 steps. The synthesis featured a catalytic asymmetric bromocyclization of tryptamine to forge the tricycle intermediate. Hydration of an alkene catalyzed by Co(acac)2 was also employed as a key step to diastereoselectively introduce the tertiary alcohol moiety. The absolute configuration of (-)-conolutinine was established to be (2S,5aS,8aS,13aR) based on this asymmetric total synthesis.
首次实现了(-)-康洛丁宁的对映选择性全合成,共 10 步。该合成以催化不对称溴环化反应构建三环中间体为特色,采用 Co(acac)2 催化的烯烃水合反应作为关键步骤,立体选择性地引入叔醇部分。基于该不对称全合成,(-)-康洛丁宁的绝对构型确定为(2S,5aS,8aS,13aR)。
