Stereoselective total synthesis of ieodomycin C

摘要

A concise stereoselective synthesis of the marine natural product ieodomycin C (3) has been achieved from commercially available pyridinium-1-sulfonate (8) in eight linear steps and 14% overall yield. The key synthetic steps included a B-alkyl Suzukie-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction and an Evanse-Nagao acetate aldol reaction. The same synthetic sequence was used for preparing the enantiomer of ieodomycin C (3). Our efforts confirmed the structure of the antibacterial natural product 3.
