A switchable radical framework reconstruction approach to structurally unique 13(14 → 8),14(8 → 7)di-steroid swinhoeisterol A was developed. The conversion of an ergostane skeleton proceeded through the intermediacy of a 13(14 → 8)-framework as present in the dankasterone and periconiastone family of natural products and features a β scission of a 14-alkoxy radical with concomitant generation of the C8-C13 bond. From this intermediate, and dependent on the conditions employed, the cascade continues with a Dowd-Beckwith rearrangement and leads to the formation of the 13(14 → 8),14(8 → 7)di-framework of the swinhoeisterol class of natural products. The synthesis of these frameworks then allowed for efficient access to swinhoeisterol A (), dankasterone A (Δ-), dankasterone B (), and periconiastone A ().
开发了一种可切换的自由基框架重构方法,用于结构独特的 13(14→8),14(8→7)二-甾族化合物 swinhoeisterol A。麦角甾烷骨架的转化通过 13(14→8)-框架中间体进行,该中间体存在于 dankasterone 和 periconiastone 天然产物家族中,具有 14-烷氧基自由基的β断裂,同时生成 C8-C13 键。从中介体开始,并取决于所采用的条件,级联反应继续进行 Dowd-Beckwith 重排,导致 swinhoeisterol 类天然产物的 13(14→8),14(8→7)双框架的形成。这些框架的合成然后可以有效地获得 swinhoeisterol A()、dankasterone A(Δ-)、dankasterone B()和 periconiastone A()。
