Alkynyliodonium Salts in Organic Synthesis. Development of a Unified Strategy for the Syntheses of (−)-Agelastatin A and (−)-Agelastatin B

The total syntheses of natural agelastatin A and agelastatin B were accomplished via a strategy that utilized an alkynyliodonium salt → alkylidenecarbene → cyclopentene transformation to convert a relatively simple amino alcohol derivative to the functionalized core of the agelastatin system.

Description
Summary:The total syntheses of natural agelastatin A and agelastatin B were accomplished via a strategy that utilized an alkynyliodonium salt → alkylidenecarbene → cyclopentene transformation to convert a relatively simple amino alcohol derivative to the functionalized core of the agelastatin system. Subsequent manipulations delivered debromoagelastatin, which served as a precursor to both agelastatin A and agelastatin B. Alkylidenecarbene insertion chemoselectivity issues were explored en route to the final targets.
