Divergent total syntheses of the hetero-oligomeric iridoid
glycosides
mainly found in Dipsacus asper were achieved. Thus,
loganin (1), which is important as a monomer unit, was
efficiently synthesized by stereoselective reductive cyclization using
secologanin (2) as a substrate. Sequential condensation
reactions of derivatives of 1 and 2 as monomer
units led to the first enantioselective total syntheses of the heterooligomers
cantleyoside, (E)-aldosecologanin, dipsaperine, (3R, 5S)-5-carboxyvincosidic acid 22-loganin
ester, and dipsanoside A.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
