The first total synthesis of enisorine D, a natural product isolated from the marine sponge Iotrochota cf. iota, is described in 64% overall yield. The target molecule, which is an inhibitor of T3SS-dependent Yope secretion of Y. pseudotuberculosis, is achieved in seven linear steps from tyramine via simple and effective transformations that include bromination, acylation, alkylation, azidation, reduction and routine acid–amine coupling. A total of sixteen analogues are prepared by coupling with eight different cinnamic acids, two bromopyrrole carboxylic acids, five phenyl carboxylic acids and picolinic acid.

Pateamine A

A convergent synthesis of the unique thiazole-containing polyene bis-lactone pateamine A (1) isolated from the marine sponge Mycale sp is described. The synthesis features the ubiquitous Stille sp2–sp2 coupling reaction to elaborate the E,Z-diene macrolide core 23 and the all-E polyenamine side chain in the natural product. It also highlights the scope for enantiopure sulfinimine intermediates in the synthesis of chiral β-amino ester moieties in complex structures.Key words: pateamine A, immunosuppressive agent from marine sponge Mycale sp, total synthesis, novel 19-membered bis-lactone, thiazole metabolite, polyenamine, Stille reaction, sulfinimines, chiral β-amino esters.

Structural Diversification

Natural product total synthesis is in essence target-oriented in that a set of organic transformations are orchestrated into a workable process, leading ultimately to the target molecule with a predefined architecture. For a bioactive lead, proof of synthetic viability is merely the beginning. Ensuing effort repurposes the initial synthesis for structural diversification in order to probe structure-activity relationship (SAR). Yet accessibility is not equal to flexibility; moving from convergency to divergency, it is not always feasible to explore the chemical space around a particular substructure of interest simply by tweaking an established route. In this situation, the motif-oriented strategy becomes a superior choice, which gives priority to synthetic flexibility at the concerned site such that a route is adopted only if it is capable of implementing diversification therein. This strategy was recently devised by Fürstner et al., enabling them to achieve total synthesis of both natural and non-natural nannocystins varied at an otherwise challenging position. The present review examines seven distinctive nannocystin total syntheses reported thus far and showcases the merits of conventional (target-oriented) as well as motif-oriented strategies, concluding that these two approaches complement each other and are both indispensable for natural product based drug discovery.

The field of natural product total synthesis has reached the point where synthetic efficiency has become more important than merely defining a viable (yet less ideal) route to the target molecule. Several synthesis of different types of natural products are compared using color-coded flow charts.

<div>An efficient and practical method for the synthesis of (9R,14R,17R)-FE399, a novel antitumor bicyclic depsipeptide, was developed. A 2-methyl-6-nitrobenzoic anhydride (MNBA)-mediated dehydration condensation reaction was effectively employed for the formation of the 16-membered macrocyclic depsipeptide moiety of FE399. FE399 was found to exist as an inseparable equilibrium mixture of conformational isomers; the mixture was quantitatively transformed into the corresponding S-benzyl product and isolated as a single isomer. Thus, we could confirm that the molecular structure of FE399 obtained by this method is identical to that of the natural product.</div>

We report an efficient ten-step synthesis of antiviral natural product cavinafungin B in 37% overall yield. By leveraging a one-pot chemoenzymatic synthesis of (2S,4R)-4-methylproline and oxazolidine-tethered (Rink-Boc-ATG-resin) SPPS methodology, the assembly of our molecular target could be conducted in an efficient manner.This general strategy could prove amenable to the construction of other natural and unnatural linear lipopeptides. The value of incorporating biocatalytic steps in complex molecule synthesis is highlighted by this work.

<div> <p>The total synthesis of principinol D, a rearranged kaurane diterpenoid, is reported. This grayanane natural product is constructed via a convergent fragment coupling approach, wherein the central 7-membered ring is synthesized at a late stage. The bicyclo[3.2.1]octane fragment is accessed by a Ni-catalyzed α-vinylation reaction. Strategic reductions include a diastereoselective SmI<sub>2</sub>-mediated ketone reduction with PhSH and a new protocol for selective ester reduction in the presence of ketones. The convergent strategy reported herein may be an entry point to the larger class of kaurane diterpenoids.</p> </div>
