DIASTEREOSELECTIVE SYNTHESIS OF N-BENZOYL MYCALAMINE, THE FULLY ELABORATED TRIOXADECALIN NUCLEUS OF MYCALAMIDE-A - CONTROL OF THE KEY N-ACYL AMINAL STEREOCENTER VIA CARBAMATE ACYLATION
Tg. Marron et Wr. Roush, DIASTEREOSELECTIVE SYNTHESIS OF N-BENZOYL MYCALAMINE, THE FULLY ELABORATED TRIOXADECALIN NUCLEUS OF MYCALAMIDE-A - CONTROL OF THE KEY N-ACYL AMINAL STEREOCENTER VIA CARBAMATE ACYLATION, Tetrahedron letters, 36(10), 1995, pp. 1581-1584
A highly diastereoselective synthesis of N-benzoyl mycalamine (8), cor
responding to the C(10)-C(18) amine fragment of mycalamide A, is descr
ibed. The synthesis features a highly stereoselective acylation of car
bamate 7 that permits the stereochemistry of the key C(10)-N-acyl amin
al center to be controlled.
