13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectral and conformational analysis of naturally occurring tetrahydrofuran lignans

Abstract: The 13C nmr spectra of the naturally occurring stereoisomers of the tetrahydrofuran lignans were recorded and the signals assigned. Based on these assignments, on the observed sensitivity of the benzylic carbon shifts to the orientation of the aryl groups, and on the comparison with previously reported 1H nmr data, the most probable conformations for the mentioned stereoisomers are suggested.

“…17,23) These chemical shifts are characteristic of a tetrahydrofuran ring with a cis-configuration of one aryl and methyl substituent as well as a trans-configuration of the other aryl and methyl group, whereas the two methyl groups are trans-oriented to each other. 24,25) Due to the asymmetric stereochemistry of the tetrahydrofuran substituents it had to be determined which of the two aryl substituents showed a cis orientation to the neighboring methyl group. This was deduced from the correlations of HMBC and NOESY spectra (Fig.…”

“…9 In most instances only relative configurations have been determined and further studies have relied on spectroscopic and correlation data to assign absolute configurations. [3][4][5][6][7]10 Efforts in enantioselective synthesis of these lignans have been sparse. 11 Often, racemic (or meso) mixtures resulting from oxidative coupling of diaryl 1,4-ketones have been obtained, 12 and separated by chiral HPLC.…”

“…[224,226] Four natural stereoisomers of tetrahydrofuran lignans (structures II to V) have been reported so far from plants (Figure 105). [227] Since the experimental analysis data were in agreement with the literature data, form IV was proposed as the relative configuration of the isolated ganschisandrine (122).…”
