Asymmetric Total Synthesis and Absolute Configuration Determination of (−)-Verrupyrroloindoline
The first asymmetric total synthesis of (−)-verrupyrroloindoline (20% overall yield in 6 steps) is described. The short approach was enabled by Buchwald’s Cu(II)-catalyzed asymmetric conjugate reduction, DMDO-triggered one-pot four-step tandem reaction, and the first amide-selective Ir-catalyzed di...

Zusammenfassung: | The first asymmetric total synthesis of (−)-verrupyrroloindoline (20% overall yield in 6 steps) is described. The short approach was enabled by Buchwald’s Cu(II)-catalyzed asymmetric conjugate reduction, DMDO-triggered one-pot four-step tandem reaction, and the first amide-selective Ir-catalyzed direct reduction of β-carboethoxy tertiary lactam. Along with the total synthesis, the absolute configuration of natural verrupyrroloindoline was determined as 7R,10R,11R. |
