Abstract

Starting from a 19-membered (12E)-cycloalkene prepared by ring-closing metathesis, amphidinolide T1 and T4 were ­efficiently synthesized via a short sequence of selective functionalization. The key steps highlighted stereoselective dihydroxylation of the (E)-C12-C13 double bond and highly regioselective silylation/desilylation of the (12S,13S)-diol. In particular, a significant solvent effect was discovered for suppressing 1,4 O→O silyl migration or disilylation during selective mono-silylation of the (12R,13R)- and (12S,13S)-diols in toluene. In combination with our previous synthesis of amphidinolide T3, the same (12E)-cycloal­kene serves as an advanced common intermediate for concise diverted total synthesis of amphidinolide T family of marine macrolides.

Chem3D models show that the (13R)-OH group in 5 orients opposite to both the (12R)-OH and the (14R)-Me groups while (13S)-OH group in 6 aligns closely with both the (12S)-OH and the (14R)-Me groups. It should be possible for hydrogen bonding or 1,4 O→O silyl migration to take place in 6 but not in 5.
