Key words
tetrahydrolipstatin - pancreatic lipase inhibitors - epoxide carbonylation - epoxyhomoallylic alcohols
Significance
Tetrahydrolipstatin (Xenical®) is a pancreatic lipase inhibitor that is marketed as a treatment for obesity. The eleven-step small-scale synthesis depicted (31% overall yield) features the regioselective carbonylation of the cis-epoxide I using the bimetallic [Lewis acid]+[Co(CO)4]– catalyst J to give the trans-β-lactone.

Comment
Seven diastereoisomers of tetrahydrolipstatin were also prepared by this epoxide carbonylation route. Attempts to synthesize epoxide I via the direct DCC coupling of N-formyl-l-leucine with G occurred with appreciable amounts of epimerization.
