Abstract

Synthetic studies toward daphnezomines A and B, members of Daphniphyllum alkaloid group with a rare azaadamantane core structure, are reported. The tricyclic carbon skeleton with two contiguous quaternary carbon centers was synthesized in nine steps from (R)-piperitone. An intramolecular Tsuji–Trost reaction was used as a key reaction for the assembly of the skeleton.

Key words

Daphniphyllum alkaloids - daphnezomines - total synthesis - natural products - Tsuji–Trost reaction

  • 25 Aldehyde 14 K2CO3 (6.3 mg, 0.0458 mmol, 1.5 equiv) and Pd(PPh3)4 (3.5 mg, 0.00305 mmol, 0.1 equiv) were sequentially added to a solution of enol 13 (11.0 mg, 0.0305 mmol, 1.0 equiv) in DMSO (0.3 mL) at 23 °C. The resultant mixture was heated to 60 °C and stirred at 60 °C for 3 h, then cooled to 23 °C. The reaction was quenched with sat. aq NaHCO3 (1 mL), and the mixture was extracted with EtOAc (3 × 3 mL). The combined organic phases were washed with brine (1 mL), dried (MgSO4), filtered, and concentrated. The residue was purified by flash column chromatography [silica gel, EtOAc–PE (1:100 → 1:60)] to give a white solid; yield: 6.2 mg (68%); Rf = 0.75 (silica gel, EtOAc–PE, 1:20); [α]D 11.5 +8.5 (c = 0.5, CHCl3).
