Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis presents our studies towards the first total synthesis of the novel anti- HIV agent lancifodilactone G, which has a highly unusual aliphatic enol. The first chapter provides a survey of architecturally diverse nortriterpenoids that were isolated from the Schisandraceae family. A proposed biosynthetic pathway for lancifodilactone G and closely related natural products provides a rationale for the formation of the consecutive 7/8/5 fused carbo cycles that are unique to Schisandra nortriterpenoids. Chapter 1 goes on to outline the reported strategies to access the core of lancifodilactone G and concludes with a retrosynthetic analysis proposed by the Evans group, which includes a biosynthetically inspired single-pot polycyclisation reaction. Chapter 2 describes the highly stereocontrolled synthesis of the eastern fragment (F-G rings) using transition metal-mediated Pauson-Khand reaction. This chapter also reviews the metal-mediated diastereoselective Pauson-Khand reaction directed by the stereogenic centre at C2, with the ample illustration to total synthesis. Attempted strategies for the assembly of the bicyclic cyclopentanone motif via a dienyl Pauson-Khand reaction of silicon- and oxygen- tethered diene-enes are presented. The failure of these strategies at different stages of the synthesis resulted in the exploration of a classical Pauson-Khand approach, which successfully furnished the eastern fragment. Finally, a second-generation synthesis is described which provided the fully functionalised eastern fragment with improved efficiency and overall yield. Chapter 3 discusses the successful synthesis of the western fragment (B-C rings) using a diastereoselective [4+3] cycloaddition strategy. Attempted strategies for the synthesis of the key 2,3-disubstituted furan derivative are presented, which was achieved via a hetero Pauson- Khand reaction. This chapter includes a brief account of the classical [4+3] cycloaddition reactions of furans using an in situ generated oxyallyl cation and also employing vinyl carbenoids in the metal-catalysed version. The review also highlights the application of the [4+ 3] cycloaddition reaction in the expeditious assembly of functionalised 7-membered rings that occur in a number of important biologically active natural products. The third chapter goes on to describe the application of these cycloaddition reactions in the synthesis of the fully functionalised western fragment of Lancifodilactone G. Chapter 4 describes a model study aimed at expediting the synthesis of the western fragment using a rhodium-catalysed allylic substitution reaction. A brief mechanistic discussion on unique aspects of the allylic alkylation reaction is illustrated. Chapter 4 concludes by outlining the coupling strategy for eastern and western fragments and the end game studies for the completion of the synthesis of lancifodilactone G.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Lancifodilactone G is a member of a unique set of eight ring systems that expresses anti-HIV, anti-tumor, and anti-hepatitis activities. A pathway has been proposed to synthesize the two halves of this complicated molecule with the hope of joining them to make the natural product. The synthesis of the eastern sector of the molecule has been focused on the formation of a five-membered lactone 8. This will serve as the base of the D and H rings of the system. The rings will be formed by two separate fragments 9 and 11. Completion of the proposed synthesis will also lead to the discovery and characterization of new compounds. Fragment 9 has been nearly accomplished through seven steps of a nine step path, but the yield dropped with the hydrogenolysis to cleave a benzyl protecting group. Fragment 11 has progressed through two steps of a six step synthesis, as it proved difficult to work with the unstable 4-methoxybenzyl chloride to protect an alcohol. Concerning the western sector of the molecule, we have been working on a model study of the deoxygenation of a highly functionalized enone 46. The synthesis of this sector has advanced 22 steps along the pathway, but there is no current documentation on the removal of a carbonyl oxygen that is compatible with the acid sensitive acetal functionality present in our molecule. Completion of the western sector should follow the discovery of a new method. We have currently completed the first three optimized steps of a six step synthesis. The completed three steps have introduced unknown compounds high yields that have enlisted further characterization.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of a Nazarov cyclization for the diastereoselective synthesis of rocaglamide was studied. Chapter 1 discusses the biological activity of the rocaglamide family of natural products and details the previous synthetic work on these compounds. Chapter 2 discusses the approaches taken in the Magnus group for the total synthesis of rocaglamide. Several approaches to the natural product were undertaken. Using a novel acid bromide induced Nazarov cyclization, construction of the C-ring of the natural product was achieved. Attempts to construct the remainder of rocaglamide were ultimately unsuccessful.
