Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Our research focused on the efficient total synthesis of structurally complex marine macrolide natural products with significant biological activities to investigate and exploit their biological functions. A convergent synthesis of a fully functionalized macrolactone core of goniodomin A, a polyether macrolide that targets actin cytoskeleton, has been accomplished. An efficient, convergent total synthesis of polycavernoside B, a lethal glycosidic macrolide isolated from the red alga, has been achieved for the first time. In addition, efficient synthetic routes to the C1-C13 and C8-C29 fragments of amphidinolide N, an extremely potent cytotoxic macrolide, have been developed in a convergent manner.
