Total Synthesis of the Diterpenoid Alkaloid Arcutinidine Using a Strategy Inspired by Chemical Network Analysis

Abstract: Arcutinidine and other arcutinidine-type diterpenoid alkaloids feature an intricate polycyclic, bridged framework with unusual connectivity. A chemical network analysis approach to the arcutane skeleton enabled the identification of highly simplifying retrosynthetic disconnections, which indicated that the caged structure could arise from a simpler fused ring system. On this basis, a total synthesis of arcutinidine is reported herein, featuring an unprecedented oxopyrrolium Diels− Alder cycloaddition which fur… Show more

“…The hydration of alkenes in the presence of a transition metal catalyst, oxygen and a reductant has been intensively investigated in the past with the first studies being published already in the 1980s (Scheme 1 a). [2–14] In these cascades, mainly first row transition metals (Fe/Co/Mn) have been applied [15] . Moreover, O 2 is generally used as the C‐radical oxygenation reagent in a reaction that proceeds either near the diffusion limit or diffusion‐controlled and accordingly is difficult to run with high stereoselectivity in non‐rigid systems [16–18] .…”

“…There are three reported syntheses of arcutane alkaloids to date-by the Qin, 32 Sarpong, 33 and Li 34 groups-all of which were published in close succession in 2019. Qin and Sarpong identied similar bond-network disconnections, but with very different outcomes.…”

“…Here, we discuss the Sarpong group's synthesis rst. 33 Similar to Qin's retrosynthetic strategy, the Sarpong synthesis took advantage of the bond-network derived disconnection set 2.2. The synthesis began by bringing together known starting materials 60 and 61 through a Wittig reaction.…”
