Formal total synthesis of amphidinolide E
A formal total synthesis of the cytotoxic macrolide amphidinolide E is reported. The strategic steps are three Julia-Kocienski reactions (J-K), for the formation of the C5-C6, C9-C10, and C17-C18 double bonds, a Suzuki-Molander C21-C22 bond formation reaction, and a Kita-Trost macrolactonization.

| Summary: | A formal total synthesis of the cytotoxic macrolide amphidinolide E is reported. The strategic steps are three Julia-Kocienski reactions (J-K), for the formation of the C5-C6, C9-C10, and C17-C18 double bonds, a Suzuki-Molander C21-C22 bond formation reaction, and a Kita-Trost macrolactonization. The 'instability' of the two dienic systems and of the stereocenter at C2 (allylic methine, alpha to the carboxy group) and the protecting groups at C17-OH and C18-OH have posed difficult challenges. Each Julia-Kocienski olefination has been systematically optimized to provide the highest possible E/Z ratios. |
