An asymmetric synthesis of the 1 to 11 and 14 to 18 fragments of the macrocyclic portion of the antibiotic Leucascandrolide A was achieved in 21 total steps from an achiral dienoate. The key 4-hydroxy-2,5-pyran portion of the natural product was established by oxy-Michael cyclization of a 5,7,9,11-tetraol intermediate, which in turn was established by an iterative asymmetric-hydration of dienoates. Alternative strategies for establishing the polyol stereochemistry were explored.
从一种非手性二烯酸酯出发,经21步总反应实现了抗生素白念珠菌素A大环部分1至11片段和14至18片段的不对称合成。天然产物关键的4-羟基-2,5-吡喃部分通过5,7,9,11-四醇中间体的氧-迈克尔环化反应构建而成,而该中间体又通过二烯酸酯的迭代不对称水合反应构建。还探索了构建多元醇立体化学的替代策略。
