Research Abstract

The purpose of this research was to contribute to the progress of modern fine organic synthetic chemistry as a basis of the creation of new medicines throrgh the development of a new methodology for selective and efficient syntheses of very complex molecules such as macroide, polyether antilbiotics and marine polyether-macrolides. During the past three years research the following three results were mainly obtained.
1. Synthsis of macrolides : A new stereoselective syntheses of erythromolide A,the most important aglycon, was completed via an extremely efficient macrolactionization with the aid of MM2-CONFLEX3 calculation and NMR analysis of seco-acid derivatives. The representative aglycons in carbomycin series such as carbonolide A,leuconolides, and maridonolides were also synthesized completely stereoselectively from carbonolide B through conformational control of 16-membered macro-rings. Computer-aided conformational analysis and structural design of key intermediates for the stereoselective synthesis of tedanolide, an anti-tumor marine macrolide, were successfully applied, and an 18-membered lactone was synthesized highly efficiently.
2. Synthesis of polyethers : Highly stereoselective syntheses of complex isolasalocid A,lasalocid A,salinomycin, and lysocellin by a common methodology using a new method for the construction of substituted tetrahydofuran and tetrahydropyran rings and MPM type protective groups were completed.
3. Synthesis of polyether-macrolides : Four fragments (I : C1-C15, II : C16-C26, III : C27-C36, IV : C37-C54) of halichondrin B were stereoselectively synthesized, and couplings among the fragments were completed to give C1-C36 and C16-C54 intermediates. In order to complete the total synthesis of halichondrin B final couplings are now in progress.
