Synthesis of (±)-γ-Rubromycin via a New Hypoiodite-Catalytic Oxidative Cycloetherification

Abstract: A new synthesis of γ-rubromycin is presented through a new oxidative, bisbenzannulated spiroketalization as a key step which is catalyzed by an in situ generated hypoiodite species, developed previously by our group. This key transformation has high efficiency and convenient conditions. This is a new and efficient catalytic application for organohypoiodine reagents.

“…Attempted synthesis of the mono(benzannulated) spiroacetals 379 using this method failed. [179][180][181] The same research group has recently applied this method to a formal synthesis of γ-rubromycin 58 [188] (Scheme 91). Treatment of phenol 380 with hypoiodite in the presence of TBAF as a fluoride ion source afforded the 5,6-bis(benzannulated) Scheme 89 IHA-based syntheses of cryptoacetalide and danshenspiroketallactone [183,184] Scheme 90 Xue et al's hypoiodite approach toward bis(benzannulated) spiroacetals [187] spiroacetal 381 in high yield.…”

“…Besides the diverse bioactivity, the complex intriguing spiroketal core of rubromycins has attracted the attention of several research groups for chemical synthesis and biosynthesis studies. Several total synthesis strategies have been successfully established for rubromycin compounds, whereas, the biosynthetic conversions of rubromycins still exist a lot uncertainties [11][12][13][14][15]. With the clear recognition of biosynthetic gene clusters of rubromycins, further studies of the individual enzymes are required to determine the exact biosynthetic pathway.…”

“…[14] Thus, the acidcatalyzed spiroketalization is almost completely inhibited in the case of isocoumarin-substituted substrates due to the decreased nucleophilicity of the phenolic oxygen atom. [4,15] The replacement of the isocoumarin fragment by a synthetic equivalent allowed Brimble (2009) [16] and Li (2012) [17] to achieve acid-induced spiroketalizations which led to formal total syntheses of (AE)-g-rubromycin. [18] We here report our route to this natural product, which afforded the target molecule in larger quantities by a convergent approach and highly efficient reaction steps.…”
