Total synthesis of ent-calystegine B4 via nitro-Michael/aldol reaction

Abstract: Optically active ent-calystegine B4 was prepared in 13 steps from commercially available chiral L-dimethyl tartrate. The synthesis was achieved by the Michael addition and the aldol reaction of nitromethane to form cycloheptanone in a stereoselective manner. Reduction of the nitro group in the presence of Boc(2)O accomplished an efficient conversion to amino cycloheptanone, which readily afforded the desired ent-calystegine B4.

“…To synthesize the reported structure of phomolide H ( 2 ), l ‐dimethyl tartrate ( 11 ) was first protected as the 2,3‐acetonide (Scheme ), both esters were reduced by using LiAlH 4 , and the resulting 1,4‐diol was monosilylated to form its TBS‐ether, which was followed by Swern oxidation to give aldehyde 12 . The protected threose 12 was then subjected to a Wittig reaction employing the pinacol–acetaldehyde phosphonium salt 13 , known as DualPhos, which enabled stereoselective olefination ( E/Z > 5:1) to give the latent alkenal 10 .…”

“…The three-step route proceeded in an overall 37% yield and was reproducible on a multigram scale. Alternatively, compound 9 was accessible starting from l -diethyl tartrate 10 , which was converted into aldehyde 11 following a reported method. Simultaneous removal of the tert -butyldimethylsilyl (TBS) and isopropylidene-protecting groups by treatment with 1.25 M HCl/MeOH led to the formation of methyl threoside 9 in 35% yield over five steps. Such a synthetic sequence can also be easily performed on a large scale.…”

“…A solution of compound 11 (1.0 g, 3.64 mmol) in 1.25 M methanolic HCl (100 mL) was stirred at room temperature for 12 h. The reaction mixture was quenched with solid NaHCO 3 and filtered. The filtrate was evaporated to give a crude residue, which was purified by silica gel chromatography (gradient DCM/MeOH, 25:1, v/v; 20:1, v/v; 15:1, v/v) to afford compound 9 (244 mg, 50%), as a mixture of anomers 9α and 9β .…”

“…Isosorbide (Is, 98+%) was purchased from Alfa Aesar Chemical Co. (Tianjin, China). Dimethyl succinate (DMS, 99%) was purchased from Sinopharm Chemical Reagent Co., Ltd. 2,3- O -Isopropylidene- l -threitol (ITh) was synthesized according to the literature. , The synthetic procedures of ITh and its FT-IR, 1 H NMR, and HR-MS data are provided in SI (Figures S1 and S2). Other solvents (AR grade) were obtained from Kelong Chemical Corporation, and used without further purification.…”
