Synthesis of S-Containing Derivatives of the Sesquiterpene Lactone Britanin

Abstract: The optimal method for isolating the sesquiterpene lactone britanin from the aerial part of Inula britannica L. (Asteraceae) was developed. Britanin was functionalized by reacting it with methyl mercaptoacetate.Sesquiterpene lactones of Inula britannica L. (Asteraceae) have a variety of structures and pharmacological activities [1-3]. One of the principal lactones of this species is britanin pseudoguaianolide (1), which exhibits antiprotozoic, antibacterial, and antifungal activities [4]. Terpenoids containing… Show more

“…The IR spectrum exhibited absorptions at 3423 (OH), 1762 (C=O, γ-lactone), and 1718 cm −1 (C=O, ester). Compound 13 showed similar 1 H-and 13 C-NMR patterns to those of known britanin (15) [13]. The major difference was that the H-2 signal shifted upfield from δ H = 4.86 in 15 to δ H = 4.03 in 13 and an acetyl group (δ H = 2.04; δ C = 21.2 and δ C = 170.2) in 15 disappeared.…”

“…The trans-attachment of the lactone ring was deduced from the allylic coupling pattern (J = 3.2 Hz) between H-7 and H a/b -13 based on Samekʼs rule [11]. Additionally, the relative configuration of britanlin I (13) was established by a molecular modeling study and a detailed comparison of the coupling pattern of protons with those of britanin (15) [13]. Furthermore, the relative configuration of britanin (15) was confirmed by X-ray single crystal diffraction analyses (l " Fig.…”

“…The structure makes the molecule highly reactive and causes it to undergo various transformations [1][2][3][4]. Several novel organic transformations with alkynes have been explored to build valuable molecular skeletons in recent years [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22]. Among these, difunctionalization of alkynes is an efficient and straightforward strategy for the synthesis of functionalized compounds, which can be transformed into diverse organic skeletons.…”

“…However, 1 and 2 also include a highly reactive electrophilic center as an exomethylene in the lactone ring that is susceptible to attack by nucleophiles. The reaction of 1 with methylmercaptoacetate (S-nucleophile) is known to occur at the lactone ring and to produce addition products at the C-11 and C-13 atoms in a 3:1 ratio [11]. Examples of the addition of N-nucleophiles to britanin isolated from I. caspica are known.…”
