Stereoselective
Synthesis of Linustedastat Via Deoxy-Aromatization
Strategy
Abstract An efficient and stereoselective synthesis of Linustedastat (1) is reported, commencing from inexpensive and commercially available sitolactone. The route features a highly chemoselective Grignard addition, followed by sequential double aldol condensations to construct the core steroidal framework. A key step involves a novel deoxy-aromatization of a fluorinated steroid intermediate, setting the stage for a stereoselective hydrogenation and a 1,4-conjugate addition to further elaborate the molecule. This strategically designed sequence delivers the complex and electron-deficient fluorinated steroidal architecture in 16 steps with an 11.0% overall yield.
期刊介绍:
Organic Letters invites original reports of fundamental research in all branches of the theory and practice of organic, physical organic, organometallic,medicinal, and bioorganic chemistry. Organic Letters provides rapid disclosure of the key elements of significant studies that are of interest to a large portion of the organic community. In selecting manuscripts for publication, the Editors place emphasis on the originality, quality and wide interest of the work. Authors should provide enough background information to place the new disclosure in context and to justify the rapid publication format. Back-to-back Letters will be considered. Full details should be reserved for an Article, which should appear in due course.
