General Approach for the Synthesis of Sarpagine Indole Alkaloids. Enantiospecific Total Synthesis of (+)-Vellosimine, (+)-Normacusine B, (−)-Alkaloid Q<sub>3</sub>, (−)-Panarine, (+)-<i>N</i><sub>a</sub>-Methylvellosimine, and (+)-<i>N</i><sub>a</sub>-Methyl-16-epipericyclivine
Аннотация
The first total synthesis of (+)-Na-methyl-16-epipericyclivine (9) was completed [from d-(+)-tryptophan methyl ester] in an overall yield of 42% (eight reaction vessels). The optical rotation [[α]D +22.8 (c 0.50, CHCl3)] obtained on this material confirmed that the reported optical rotation [[α]D 0 (c 0.50, CHCl3)]47 was biogenetically unreasonable. The total syntheses of (+)-vellosimine, (+)-normacusine B, (−)-alkaloid Q3, (−)-panarine, and (+)-Na-methylvellosimine are also described. Moreover, a mixed sample (1:1) of synthetic (−)-panarine and natural (−)-panarine yielded only one set of signals in the 13C NMR; this indicated that the two compounds are identical and further confirmed the correct configuration of (+)-vellosimine, (+)-normacusine B, and (−)-alkaloid Q3. In this approach, the key templates, (−)-Na-H,Nb-benzyltetracyclic ketone 15a and (−)-Na-methyl,Nb-benzyltetracyclic ketone 43 were synthesized on multihundred gram scale by the asymmetric Pictet−Spengler reaction and a stereocontrolled Dieckmann cyclization via improved sequences. An intramolecular palladium (enolate-mediated) coupling reaction was employed to introduce the C(19)−C(20) E-ethylidene function in the sarpagine alkaloids for the first time in stereospecific fashion.
