Phenolic oxidative coupling : an approach to the synthesis of pretazettine

Creator:: Chong, Wesley Kwan Mung
Abstract:: Various hypervalent iodine compounds were evaluated as reagents for intramolecular phenolic oxidative coupling. It was found that phenyliodine(III) bis(trifluoroacetate) was effective for the coupling of the monophenolic substrate 13a to 14a under neutral conditions. Vanadium oxytrifluoride and hypervalent iodine compounds were compared as oxidants for the conversion of 32 to...

Chiral synthesis of alcohols via asymmetric epoxidation

Creator:: Engebrecht, Jeffrey Ronald
Abstract:: Enantioselective epoxidation of crotyl alcohol, followed by a cuprate mediated methylation, gave a 1:1 mixture of (2S) -3- methyl -1,2- butanediol and (2R,3S)-2-methy1-1,3- butanediol. The latter was separated as its 2,4,6-trimethylbenzenesulfonate derivative and converted via the iodide to the corresponding phosphonium salt. The separated butanediol derivatives were independently transformed to...

Studies on the synthesis of the "northern" and "southern" segments of boromycin and aplasmomycin

Creator:: Kang, Myung Chol
Abstract:: The stereocontrolled synthesis of the southern lactone 17 of boromycin and of the northern segments of both boromycin and aplasmomycin are described. The syntheses begin with enantioselective epoxidation of 3-buten-2-ol (42) to provide the optically active 2(S),3(R) epoxy alcohol 43. The absolute configuration was confirmed by preparing 43 from (-)-2,3-dihydroxybutyric...

Chiral synthesis of monic acid C

Creator:: Theramongkol, Parinya
Abstract:: Bromoalkoxylation of dihydropyran with bromine and 1-borneol, followed by dehydrobromination and epoxidation, afforded trans-2-1- bornyloxy-3,4-epoxytetrahydropyran as a major product. This was treated with sodium phenylselenide to give a 1:1 mixture of (2R,3R,4R)- 2-1-bornyloxy-3-hydroxy-4-phenylselenotetrahydropyran and its (2S,3S, 4S) diastereomer. Elimination of the selenoxide, derived from oxidation of the former with hydrogen...

Synthetic transformations of shikimic acid

Creator:: White, Edward D., III
Abstract:: Four strategies which involve synthetic elaboration of the shikimate nucleus are discussed. Methyl shikimate was differentially protected as the 3,4-0-cyclopentylidene ketal and as the 5- 0- tert- butyldiphenylsilyl ether. The methyl ester was then reduced with diisobutylaluminum hydride and the resulting allylic alcohol was oxidized to aldehyde 47 with pyridinium...

Approaches to the synthesis of the macrolactone pyrrolizidine alkaloids (-)-integerrimine and (+)-usaramine

Creator:: Jayasinghe, Lalith Ratnasiri
Abstract:: A formal total synthesis of the macrolactone pyrolizidine alkaloid (-)-integerrimine (2), from R-(+)-citronellal (93) is described. Aldehyde 93 was converted to exo methylene derivative 94 which was reduced to allylic alcohol 95. The epoxides 96 and 98, obtained in a ratio of 3:1 respectively by Sharp less epoxidation of 95...

Synthesis of two subunits of avermectin B1a

Creator:: Dantanarayana, Anura Pathmasiri
Abstract:: Avermectins are a group of potent anthelmintic agents produced by Streptomyces avermitilis. They are active at extremely low dosages and are now in commercial use. In this study, the synthesis of two segments of avermectin B[subscript 1a] are described. The synthesis of the hexahydrobenzofuran subunit (segment A) began with the...

Approaches toward synthesis of the mycosporins

Creator:: Cammack, Janice H.
Abstract:: The mycosporins, formerly called P310's are secondary metabolites of fungi closely associated with fungal reproductive processes that require light. The structurally related iminomycosporins are found in marine plants and animals and may also have functions related to light. In this study, approaches toward the asymmetric synthesis of the mycosporins are...

Approaches to the total synthesis of verrucarol

Creator:: Hill, David E. (David Edwin) 1954-
Abstract:: Verrucarol is the sesquiterpene portion of a number of macrocyclic di- and triesters of potential medicinal importance. In this study, a novel approach to the synthesis of this fungal metabolite is presented. An A-B-C route was investigated in which C-3 and C-4 of the C-ring were emplaced using a [2+2]...

Absolute stereochemistry and total synthesis of botryococcene

Creator:: Reddy, Guvvala Nagabhushana
Abstract:: Studies were carried out to determine the absolute stereochemistry of botryococcene (1). The natural product was degraded to two sets of 'y- and 8- valerolactones. All enantiomeric variations of these lactones were synthesized in optically pure form starting from (S)- and (R)-methyloxiranes. 1H NMR correlation of natural and synthetic materials...

Creator:: Pallenberg, Alexander J.
Abstract:: Part I. The total synthesis of (+)-leptosphaerin (2), a metabolite of the marine Ascomycete Leptosphaeria Oraemaris (Linder) was achieved, unambiguously establishing both the relative and absolute stereochemistry of this natural product. This synthesis also resolved the long-standing question of which of the isomeric structures 1 or 2 correctly represents the...
