Abstract

A synthesis of the marine natural product ieodomycin D has been achieved in seven steps and 16% overall yield from commercially available pyridinium-1-sulfonate. The key synthetic step was a B-alkyl Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reaction. The enantiomer of ieodomycin D was also prepared using the same synthetic strategy.

Then a freshly prepared solution of methyl (2E,4E)-5-bromopenta-2,4-dienoate (9, 1.10 equiv) in dry DMF (4.5 mL/mmol 10) was added, followed by an aqueous solution of K3PO4 (0.68 mL/mmol 10, 3.0 M). Pd(dppf)Cl2·CH2Cl2 (0.05 equiv) was added against a gentle stream of argon, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 20 h.
