Total Syntheses of Scabrolide B, Ineleganolide, and Related Norcembranoids.

Concise total syntheses of several 5/7/6 norcembranoids, including ineleganolide, scabrolide B, sinuscalide C, and fragilolide A have been achieved through a fragment coupling/ring closure approach. The central seven-membered ring was forged through sequential Mukaiyama-Michael/aldol reactions using norcarvone and a decorated bicyclic lactone incorporating a latent electrophile. Subsequent manipulations installed the reactive enedione motif and delivered scabrolide B in 11 steps from a chiral pool-derived enone.

Here, a unique carbon acid functionality, namely the bis[(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl]methyl group, was integrated with polymers a simple postpolymerization modification with the outstandingly electrophilic 1,1-bis[(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl]ethylene. The proposed synthesis protocol was verified as an efficient process even for solid-state reactions.

In this paper are presented the results of the preliminary studies conducted on two model substrates that allowed the testing of various strategies and set the proper conditions that thereafter culminated in the synthesis of the C1-C23 chain of enacyloxin-IIa and its congeners. Innovative strategic options were explored on each model allowing the stereochemical control of the following two elements: (a) the 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 chlorinated undecapentaenoic chain, thanks to -selective Kaneda's alkyne allylchlorination and an -selective Pd/Cu allene-alkyne coupling and (b) the unusual - -OH/-Cl/-OCONH 17-19 triad, thanks to a highly diastereoselective Mukaiyama aldol reaction.
