In an effort to find potent antifungal agents, optically active sulfur-containing triazole derivatives, sulfides (3) and sulfonamides (4), were prepared and evaluated for antifungal activity against Candida albicans in vitro and in vivo. The sulfides (3) were prepared by the reaction of (2R, 3R)-2-(2, 4-difluorophenyl)-3-mercapto-1-(1H, 1, 2, 4-triazol-1-yl)-2-butanol (1) with various heteroarylmethyl chlorides in the presence of sodium methoxide. The sulfonamides (4) were synthesized starting from the disulfide (15) in three steps including oxidation of the corresponding sulfenamides (17). Some of the sulfur-containing triazole derivatives (3, 4) showed strong protective effects against candidosis in mice.

Ein Feuerwerk an Schutzgruppenmanipulationen war eine wesentliche Voraussetzung für die Totalsynthese des Makrolidantibiotikums Bafilomycin A1 1. Schlüsselschritte waren die Suzuki-Kreuzkupplung zweier fortgeschrittener, geeignet geschützter Zwischenstufen vor dem Ringschluß zum Makrocyclus sowie eine hochstereoselektive Methylketon-Aldolreaktion.

A careful orchestration of protecting groups is an essential requirement for the total synthesis of the macrolide antibiotic bafilomycin A1 (1). Key steps were the Suzuki cross-coupling reaction of two advanced, suitably protected intermediates prior to closure of the macrocycle, as well as a highly stereoselective methyl ketone aldol reaction.

New optically active antifungal azoles, 1-[(1R,2R)-2-(2,4-difluoro- and 2-fluorophenyl)-2-hydroxy-1-methyl-3-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)propyl ]-3-(4- substituted phenyl)-2(1H,3H)-imidazolones (1,2) and 2-imidazolidinones (3,4), were prepared in a stereocontrolled manner from (1S)-1-[(2R)-2-(2,4- difluoro- and 2-fluorophenyl)-2-oxiranyl]ethanols (15, 16). Compounds 1-4 showed potent antifungal activity against Candida albicans in vitro and in vivo, as well as a broad antifungal spectrum for various fungi in vitro. Furthermore, the imidazolidinones, 3b--e and 4d, e, were found to exert extremely strong growth-inhibitory activity against Aspergillus fumigatus.
