Total Synthesis of Kingianin A

Abstract: A 12-step synthesis of kingianin A, an inhibitor of the antiapoptotic protein Bcl-xL, is based on a radical cation Diels Alder reaction (RCDA). This approach is thought to be biomimetic. The use of a tether in the key RCDA step controls the regiochemistry of the cycloaddition, leading to the desired core structure and a separable diastereomer.

“…Both (AE)kingianin A (1), a homochiral dimer, and (AE)-kingianin D (14), a heterochiral dimer, are the result of endo-selective formal Diels-Alder reactions occurring at the convex faces of both diene and dienophile. [36,37] Our results, in conjunction with previous biomimetic syntheses, [3,[10][11][12][13][14] demonstrate that (E,Z,Z,E)-tetraenes, and not their all-(Z) congeners, [32] are the likely biosynthetic precursors to bicyclo[4.2.0]octadiene natural products. The natural product (AE)-kingianin F (15) was similarly obtained by dimerization of the other bicyclo[4.2.0]octadiene diastereomer 12, followed by double oxidation and diamide formation.…”

“…Instead, we propose that nature uses a SET-mediated cycloaddition analogous to the approach described herein. [36,37] Our results, in conjunction with previous biomimetic syntheses, [3,[10][11][12][13][14] demonstrate that (E,Z,Z,E)-tetraenes, and not their all-(Z) congeners, [32] are the likely biosynthetic precursors to bicyclo[4.2.0]octadiene natural products.

“…The compounds 141 and 142 were isolated in (13 %) and (16 %) as the major reaction products, respectively. The incidence of compound 141 [55] was momentous and through junction with the work of Parker, 138 provides an efficient synthesis of kingianin A 133. The construction of compound 142 can be clarified by anodic oxidation reaction with subsequent intramolecular etherification from the diastereoisomer 140, in which the nearby proximity of the endo-alcohol functionality and the cyclohexadiene core is enough ready to permit nucleophilic attack on the activated diene (Scheme 34).…”
