Abstract

A stereocontrolled total synthesis of burkholdac A was completed, leading to a revision of the reported stereochemistry.

Key words

burkholdac A - total synthesis - antitumor - stereochemical assignment

Synthesis of the Proposed Burkholdac A (1)
Compound 2 (46 mg, 0.04 mmol) was dissolved in MeOH-CH2Cl2 (50 mL, 1:9) and added to a vigorously stirred solution of I2 (126 mg, 0.50 mmol) in MeOH-CH2Cl2 (200 mL, 1:9) at r.t. over 0.5 h. After 10 min, the reaction was quenched by addition of sat. aq solution of Na2S2O3 (20 mL) and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was extracted with EtOAc (3 × 30 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with sat. aq solution of Na2S2O3 (20 mL) and brine (30 mL), dried over anhyd Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was dissolved in pyridine (1 mL), after HF˙py (0.8 mL) was added at 0 ˚C, the reaction mixture was stirred at r.t. for 12 h. All volatiles were removed in vacuo; the residue was diluted with EtOAc (100 mL) and washed with HCl (20 mL, 1.0 M in H2O) and brine (20 mL), dried over anhyd Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by flash chromatography (eluted with EtOAc-hexanes-MeOH = 3:1:0.3) to provide the desired compound 1 (13.4 mg, 63% yield over 2 steps) as a white amorphous solid: [α]D ²0 -166.5 (c 0.35, MeOH). ¹H NMR (400 MHz, CD3CN): δ = 7.71 (d, J = 5.4 Hz, 1 H), 7.09 (d, J = 9.8 Hz, 1 H), 7.02 (br s, 1 H), 5.90 (br s, 1 H), 5.77 (d, J = 15.5 Hz, 1 H), 5.58 (dd, J = 6.1, 2.3 Hz, 1 H), 4.74 (br s, 1 H), 3.97-3.92 (m, 1 H), 3.83 (ddd, J = 10.2, 6.5, 4.0 Hz, 1 H), 3.68 (td, J = 10.3, 3.0 Hz, 1 H), 3.40-3.22 (m, 2 H), 2.73-2.67 (m, 2 H), 2.64-2.56 (m, 3 H), 2.51-2.43 (m, 3 H), 2.40-2.26 (m, 3 H), 2.18-2.08 (m, 2 H), 2.06 (s, 3 H), 0.83 (d, J = 0.8 Hz, 3 H), 0.81 (d, J = 1.0 Hz, 3 H) ppm. ¹³C NMR (100 MHz, CD3CN): δ = 172.4, 171.4, 171.2, 170.8, 131.9, 131.0, 70.0, 69.6, 60.1, 54.9, 54.8, 43.7, 41.2, 41.2, 41.1, 31.4, 29.1, 28.3, 20.8, 15.6, 15.0 ppm. ESI-HRMS m/z calcd for C22H36N3O6S3 + [M + H]+: 534.1761; found: 534.1757.
