Published: April 2020

Pyranone natural products have attracted great attention in recent years from chemists and biologists due to their fascinating stereoisomeric structural features and impressive bioactivities. A large number of stereoselective total syntheses of these compounds have been described in the literature. The natural pyranones with long side chains have recently received significant importance in the synthetic field. In the present article, we aim to review the modern progress of the stereoselective total syntheses of these natural pyranones containing long-chain substituents.

Synthesis of the tetrasaccharide repeating unit of the O-polysaccharide from Halomonas fontilapidosi KR26 was accomplished through a convergent [2 + 2]-block strategy using rationally protected monosaccharide synthons derived from commercially available sugars. The target tetrasaccharide was synthesized in the form of its 2-azidoethyl glycoside to ensure further conjugation with specific aglycons without hampering the reducing end stereochemistry. Use of only acyl/aryl protecting groups was targeted to keep the terminal azido-group intact for the utilization of "Click chemistry" for further conjugations.

Total Synthesis and Anti-Inflammatory Activity of Tectoridin and Related Isoflavone Glucosides.

Anti-infective Agent Creation Engineering Research Centre of Sichuan Province, School of Pharmacy, Chengdu University, Chengdu 610106, China.

The first total syntheses of four isoflavone glucosides, tectoridin (), tectoridin A (), tectorigenin 7--β-d-glucopyranosyl-12--β-d-glucopyranoside (), and isotectroigenin 7--β-d-glucopyranoside (), have been accomplished. Key steps in our synthetic approach include a regioselective halogenation reaction, followed by methanolysis to introduce the -OCH group into isoflavone frameworks and a PTC-promoted stereoselective glycosidation to establish glycosidic bonds. The synthesized isoflavone glucosides (-) and their corresponding aglycones ( and ) were evaluated for anti-inflammatory activity against nitric oxide (NO), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and interleukin-1 β (IL-1β) in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced RAW264.

Mycolactone is a complex macrolide toxin produced by , the causative agent of Buruli ulcer. The aim of this paper is to review the chemistry, biosynthetic, and synthetic pathways of mycolactone A/B to help develop an understanding of the mode of action of these polyketides as well as their therapeutic potential. The synthetic work has largely been driven by the desire to afford researchers enough (≥100 mg) of the pure toxins for systematic biological studies toward understanding their very high biological activities.

Cysteine chemoproteomic screening platforms are widely utilized for chemical probe and drug discovery campaigns. Chemoproteomic compound screens, which use a mass spectrometry-based proteomic readout, can interrogate the structure activity relationship (SAR) for thousands of proteins in parallel across the proteome. The versatility of chemoproteomic screens has been demonstrated across electrophilic, nucleophilic, and reversible classes of molecules.

We report a stereo-differentiating dynamic kinetic asymmetric Rh(I)-catalyzed Pauson-Khand reaction, which provides access to an array of thapsigargin stereoisomers. Using catalyst-control, a consistent stereochemical outcome is achieved at C2─for both matched and mismatched cases─regardless of the allene-yne C8 stereochemistry. The stereochemical configuration for all stereoisomers was assigned by comparing experimental vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) and C NMR to DFT-computed spectra.
