Asymmetric Total Synthesis of (−)-Erogorgiaene and Its C-11 Epimer and Investigation of Their Antimycobacterial Activity

A short, nine‐step, highly enantioselective synthesis of (−)‐erogorgiaene and its C‐11 epimer is reported. The key stereochemistry controlling steps involve catalytic asymmetric crotylation, anionic oxy‐Cope rearrangement and cationic cyclisation. (−)‐Erogorgiaene exhibited promising antitubercular...

Zusammenfassung:A short, nine‐step, highly enantioselective synthesis of (−)‐erogorgiaene and its C‐11 epimer is reported. The key stereochemistry controlling steps involve catalytic asymmetric crotylation, anionic oxy‐Cope rearrangement and cationic cyclisation. (−)‐Erogorgiaene exhibited promising antitubercular activity against multidrug‐resistant strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Up to the nines: A short, nine‐step, highly enantioselective synthesis of (−)‐erogorgiaene and its C‐11 epimer is reported (see scheme). The key stereochemistry controlling steps involve catalytic asymmetric crotylation, anionic oxy‐Cope rearrangement and cationic cyclisation. (−)‐Erogorgiaene exhibited promising antitubercular activity against multidrug‐resistant strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
