[摘要]:The asymmetric total synthesis of (-)-saframycin A, a natural antitumor product of the tetrahydroisoquinoline antitumor antibiotics family, has been accomplished by employing L-tyrosine as the starting chiral building block in 24 steps for the longest linear sequence in an overall yield of 9.7%. The key steps in the synthesis involve stereoselective intermolecular and intramolecular Pictet-Spengler reactions, which induced the correct stereochemistry at C-1 and C-11, respectively. The selective protection-deprotection protocol of an amino group in the two-step transformation from intermediate 10 to 12 and a hydroxyl group in the first two steps resulted in both high selectivity and efficiency of the synthetic route. |
