Book excerpt: Marine natural products are becoming widely recognised as novel sources of drug leads. Their structural complexity has attracted synthetic chemists to explore new synthetic strategies and reagents. More recently, biosynthetic considerations of natural product has led to the proposal of biogenetic precursors that may lead to a biomimetic synthesis of a particular family of compounds. If successful, biomimetic syntheses may lead to the synthesis of multiple compounds in a family of natural products from simple precursors in a short, stepwise fashion. Thiaplidiaquinone A (2.1) and B (2.2) were synthesised in a 5-step biomimetic reaction sequence where the dimeric core was constructed by allowing a simple benzoquinone to dimerise and cyclise in the presence of base. The installation of the dioxothiazine ring system allowed for the synthesis of the two natural products alongside their corresponding dioxothiazine regioisomers 2.58 and 2.59. Cytotoxicity bioassays revealed that the position of the geranyl sidechains determined the mode of cell death (necrosis versus apoptosis) whereas the dioxothiazine ring regulated the potency of the compounds. The synthesised regioisomers were found to be more potent than their natural product counterparts with one, 2.58, exhibiting sub-panel selectivity towards melanoma cancer cell lines and was selected for acute toxicity testing by the NCI. A biomimetic synthesis of pyridoacridine alkaloids amphimedine (3.3), deoxyamphimedine (3.16) and demethyldeoxyamphimedine (3.11) from the structurally simpler styelsamine D (3.13) was developed. Addition of formaldehyde to the proposed biosynthetic precursor, styelsamine D, gave the two natural products 3.11 and 3.16 in a one pot synthesis where subsequent oxidation of 3.16 gave amphimedine. It was found that pre-functionalisation of the dopamine precursor to styelsamine D allowed for the synthesis of N-ethyl analogues of amphimedine and deoxyamphimedine as well as an N-benzyl analogue of deoxyamphimedine. Biomimetic considerations of the neoamphimedine, arnoamine and alpkinidine scaffold were also investigated and the results highlighted herein. Biological evaluation of the amphimedine, deoxyamphimedine and demethyldeoxyamphimedine at the NCI identified deoxyamphimedine as a strong cytotoxic agent, exhibiting sub-panel selectivity towards central nervous system cancer cell lines.

This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The work described in this PhD dissertation is dedicated to the total synthesis of intriguing natural product structures. Two distinct families of natural substances of marine origin have been targeted in this work: the halichonadins and the araiosamines.- With the halichonadins, we plunge into the marine terpene chemistry. Isolated from sponges of the genus Halichondria, two structures have particularly drawn our attention: halichonadins K and L. Indeed, besides two subunits of terpene origin (namely halichonadin C, a natural isonitrile) with an eudesmane skeleton, a central core of peptidic origin is also original (especially a carboxylic acid disubstituted piperidine ring). A part of the work is dedicated to understanding how, in nature, isonitrile natural products may be formed and may react. The experimental part is organized according to the two following topics:1- Devise an efficient and straightforward total synthesis of halichonadin C. A strategy starting from santonin has been studied and developed. The presence of an isopropyl pending group has attracted many synthetic problems. Anyhow, an advanced intermediate comprising the whole skeleton and the crucial nitrogen atom of the target has been reached and provides good hopes for the access to halichonadin C.2- Conceiving a strategy of the stereocontroled access to the central piperidine ring of halichonadins K and L. Several strategies have been evaluated including the recourse to double Michael additions and reactions inspired by Robinson's tropinone synthesis. The peptidic central core is now accessible in a limited number of steps.Most of the pieces of the puzzle are in our hands at the end of this PhD to secure a rapid access to the complex targets that constitutes halichonadins K and L.- The chapter dedicated to araiosamines (A-D, isolated from sponges of the genus Clathria) is exploratory and allows to propose promising strategies for a bio-inspired synthesis that constitutes true challenges for the organic chemists. One of the challenges to take up is to prepare highly reactive indole aldehyde units that could be foreseen as chemical equivalents of postulated biosynthetic intermediates. A method to generate in situ such units is studied. The first applications have been directed to the synthesis of “Discodermia pyridiniums” and appear to be promising towards the total synthesis of these molecules.The work conducted during this PhD take place in the framework of the “art of total synthesis”. But, in our strategies, the chemical understanding of biosynthetic pathways is never far away.

This book was released on 2021-11-04 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marine natural products are characterized by high chemical diversity, biochemical specificity, and other molecular properties that make them favorable as lead structures for drug discovery. In this field, one of the main problems is often the reduced natural availability of isolated substances, which can complicate both the structural characterization and possible future developments. For these reasons, the study of bioactive marine metabolites should rely on the development of chemical synthesis and synthetic strategies aimed at the preparation of pure compounds and analogs both for structural confirmation and/or for the large-scale preparation necessary for future applications. Moreover, natural products can be a crucial starting point for the preparation of molecules structurally inspired by the latter, opening the path to new classes of biologically active compounds with pharmacological potential. This book collects original research articles regarding synthetic strategies for secondary marine metabolites and/or analogs that favor applications of these molecules and/or solve structural challenges common in the field of natural substances.
