Abstract

The pentacyclic guanidine compounds 4 and 5 were stereoselectively­ synthesized as novel ptilomycalin A and crambescidin analogs. The synthetic method involves successive 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions which effectively access the key intermediates, trans- and cis-2,5-disubstituted pyrrolidine 8 having hydroxyl groups at the β-positions on their side chains. Among the analogs synthesized, 4b and 5b exhibited significant inhibitory activity against Ca2+-ATPase.

Key Words
