Totarol, a tricyclic diterpene, has been synthesised from zamoranic acid. The key step is the cyclisation of a 13,14-secototarane using SmI 2 .

AbstractÐAlterations of the C-12 and C-13 aromatic ring substituents of totarol (1) aorded the series of derivatives 2À14, and introduction of substituents at C-12 gave exclusively 2aÀ14a. The majority of these analogues were tested in vitro against the following organisms: b-lactamase-positive and high level gentamycin-resistant Enterococcus faecalis, penicillin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), and multiresistant Klebsiella pneumoniae. The results were evaluated in terms of structureÀactivity relationship which reveals that: (a) the phenolic moiety at C-13, in general, is essential for antibacterial activity at <32 mg/mL against Gram-positive species, and (b) derivatization at C-12 has an undesirable eect on the antibacterial activity of this class of compounds, while (c) all compounds tested are ineective against the Gram-negative Klebsiella pneumoniae. #

Compound 2 has been prepared from the 1,6-anhydropyranohexose 3. The key process for elaborating the 1,7-dioxabicyclo[3.2.1]octane core of the zaragozic acids is addition of an organometallic reagent to lactone 6 and treatment of the resulting 1,2,3-trihydroxy-6-oxo ethylene acetal with acid. Use of the cerium(III) reagent of 4-bromo-1-butene in this process provided 7 in excellent yield, unaccompanied by the isomeric 1,6-anhydropyranose isomer. The remaining two carboxy groups of the zaragozic acid core were added by addition of the lithium enolate of 8 to formaldehyde, to obtain 9, and cerium(III)-mediated addition of vinyllithium to ketone 10. The latter addition was shown by 2D 1 H NMR experiments to provide the relative configuration found in the zaragozic acids. Similar stereoselective additions were observed with 2-furyllithium and (5-methyl-2-furyl)lithium, but the resulting adducts are resistant to ozonolysis. The synthesis of 2 completes a total synthesis of zaragozic acid A (squalestatin S1) (1).

We report here on our efforts to develop new strategies for the synthesis of ?-tocopherol, the biologically most significant member of the vitamin E family. This review comprises five new methods to generate the chiral chromane of ?-tocopherol with overall up to 29% yield from commercially available material and up to 94% de.

Decomposition of the complex 4, formed between the α-tocopherol ortho-quinone methide (2) and NMMO, by fast heating from −78 • C to 70 • C in inert solvents produces a novel α-tocopherol dimer with 6H,12H-dibenzo[b,f][1,5]dioxocine structure (5) which-in contrast to the well-known spiro-dimer of α-tocopherol (3)-is symmetrical. This is the first example of a direct reaction of the highly transient zwitterionic, aromatic precursor 2a in the formation of the ortho-quinone methide 2.
Arboranes and fernanes are pentacyclic triterpenes. Isoarborinol, suggested to be a cholesterol surrogate in the membranes of some undefined bacteria (Guy Ourisson), a hybride of migrated hopanes and parkeol, contains five cycles, 9 asymmetric centers (512 possible stereoisomers) hence a feasible total synthesis requires a plan involving a very high degree of stereoselectivity. In contrast to the massive amount of research, which has been directed toward the total synthesis of taxanes and mevinic acids, little attention has been paid to arborane and fernane type pentacyclic triterpenes. The challenge was: could we achieve the synthesis of natural and unnatural analogues of arborane and fernane derivatives using the same ingredients in a common synthetic scheme whith enzyme like selectivities? Plants produce one or more cyclases that convert squalene or its epoxide into a complete series of triterpenoid products in which the molecules posses both an epimeric and antipodal steric arrangement of the ring systems. According to the literature, differences in various biological properties of these migrated hopanes could be related to the stereochemistry of the ring system and of the isopropyl group attached to C-21. Plant extraction from several tropical plants will give the exact molecule but not the nor-14 or nor-21 analogues as there is no way for removing the angular methyl group at C-14 or isopropyl group at C-21, to synthesize molecules for biological tests. We first favored an AB+DE-→ ABCDE approach, anticipating that joining the diene AB 2 and dienophile DE ring 3 precursors should correctly situate the chiral centers at C10 and C17, furthermore ensuring the right orientation. The ester group in 3 should initially serve to activate the dienophile during the [4+2] before its transformation to the C13 angular methyl group. This plan was thwarted by the wrong orientation of the reactants. The carbonyl preferred an exo orientation and led to the unnatural skeleton 7/8, the ester group having served both as a good activating group and as an exclusive control element.
New types of concerted domino acylationcycloalkylation/alkylation-cycloacylation reactions have been described. These processes promoted by methanesulfonic acid-phosphorus pentoxide and concentrated H 2 SO 4 , respectively, provide efficient, elegant, and expeditious routes for biologically active naturally occurring diterpenoids, namely (()-ferruginol (1), (()-nimbidiol (2), (()-nimbiol , (()-totarol (4), and ar-abietatriene (5).
