An efficient and scalable approach is described for the total synthesis of the marine natural product Et-743 and its derivative lubinectedin, which are valuable antitumor compounds. The method delivers 1.6 % overall yield in 26 total steps from Cbz-protected (S)-tyrosine. It features the use of a common advanced intermediate to create the right and left parts of these compounds, and a light-mediated remote C-H bond activation to assemble a benzo[1,3]dioxole-containing intermediate.
本文描述了一种高效、可扩展的方法,用于全合成海洋天然产物 Et-743 和其衍生物 lubinectedin,它们是有价值的抗肿瘤化合物。该方法从 Cbz 保护的 (S)-酪氨酸以 1.6%的总收率经过 26 步反应得到产物。该方法的特点是使用一个共同的高级中间体来构建这些化合物的左右部分,并通过光介导的远程 C-H 键活化来组装含苯并[1,3]二恶唑的中间体。
