This study reveals an alternative sequence for the synthesis of compounds that contain the pyrrolodiketopiperazine structural motif. Starting with a diketopiperazine precursor, a mild aldol condensation precedes pyrrole annulation and bicyclic ring fusion. The derived intermediate aldol condensation products, which bear either a protected carbonyl or a functionalized alkyne, can be cyclized to the pyrrolodiketopiperazine by protic or gold Lewis acid catalysis.
本研究揭示了一种合成含有吡咯并二酮哌嗪结构基序的化合物的替代序列。从二酮哌嗪前体开始,温和的羟醛缩合反应先于吡咯环化和双环融合。衍生的中间羟醛缩合产物,带有受保护的羰基或官能化的炔烃,可以通过质子或金路易斯酸催化环化为吡咯并二酮哌嗪。
