Total Synthesis of (+)-Lycoricidine and Conduramine B-1, ent-C-1, C-4, D-1, ent-F-1, and ent-F-4, and Formal Synthesis of (-)-Laminitol: a C2-Symmetric Chiral-Pool-Based Flexible Strategy

Abstract

A facile and diversity-oriented synthetic strategy toward aminocyclitol natural products from inexpensive C2-symmetric l-tartaric acid was developed. The pivotal epoxide was used as a common intermediate to accomplish eight diverse target molecules in six to eleven steps. Various allyl-amine-type conduramines were synthesized in a diastereoselective manner. Heck arylation was explored to construct a phenanthridone ring in a concise synthesis of (+)-lycoricidine. In addition, a highly efficient formal synthesis of (-)-laminitol was developed.
