A synthesis of the reported antifungal agent (+)-hippolide J is presented. The rapid assembly of the natural product was enabled through implementation of an enantioselective isomerization/[2 + 2]-cycloaddition sequence. Due to the simplicity of the route, >100 mg of the natural product were prepared in a single pass. Anitfungal assays of hippolide J, however, confirmed that it showed no activity against several fungal strains, contrary to the isolation report.
现报道抗真菌剂(+)-hippolide J 的全合成。通过实施对映选择性异构化/[2 + 2]-环加成序列,能够快速组装该天然产物。由于路线简单,一次通过即可制备超过 100 毫克的天然产物。然而,hippolide J 的抗真菌试验证实,与分离报告相反,它对几种真菌菌株均没有活性。
