Formal Total Syntheses of the β-Lactam Antibiotics Thienamycin and PS-5

Abstract: Chiral nonracemic acetylenic acids of general structure 11, prepared using the Schreiber modification of the Nicholas reaction, have been converted to β-amino acid derivatives of type 12 by a two-step sequence involving Curtius rearrangement followed by oxidative cleavage of the acetylenic bond. Amino acid derivatives 12 are excellent precursors for β-lactams of the carbapenem class, including the important antibiotics thienamycin (1) and PS-5 (4).

“…In addition, we observed for the first time significant formation of a side product in which the BOC group had been cleaved. Jacobi55 has made note of strong solvent effects for the hydrolysis of similar compounds. When we applied new mixed solvent hydrolysis conditions based on the Jacobi observations (LiOH, H 2 O 2 , THF, DMF, H 2 O) we saw an increase in the yield of carboxylic acid 57 , and a subsequent reduction in the amount of BOC cleavage; however, the overall yield of the reaction was still variable.…”

“…The initial assumption was that alkylation of 65 at the C-11 position would occur from the convex face of the ring, which turned out to be wrong. Methylation of 65 followed by aldol condensation with the four carbon aldehyde 34 gave the wrong stereoisomer and eventually led to isoallocyathin B 2 (72) (Scheme 11). 35 After considerable experimentation, it was discovered that the desired diketone 75 could be prepared by methylation of diketone 74, the product of C-acylation of ketone 65.…”

“…± The cyclohexenes 8 [53] [54] and 9 [55] were prepared by Curtius rearrangement of commercial cyclohex-3-enecarboxylic acid and treatment of the resulting isocyanate with t-BuOH and CuCl [56] or with CF 3 COOH [55]. This onepot procedure yielded 92% of 8 and 84% of 9 3 ) (Scheme 2).…”

“…Curtius rearrangement of the monoacid 10 and treatment of the resulting isocyanate with t-BuOH and CuCl [56] gave the b-amino-acid derivative 11 (90%), which was reduced to the alcohol 12 (74%). Treating the dianion of 12 with 1.0 equiv.…”
