Total Synthesis of Homo- and Heterodimeric Bispyrrolidinoindoline Dioxopiperazine Natural Products.
2021
Total synthesis and structural confirmation of homo- and heterodimeric bispyrrolidinoindoline dioxopiperazine alkaloids isolated from fungi and bacteria, namely, ditryptoleucine A, ditryptoleucine B (11), the N,N'-bis-demethylated analogue (+)-12, (-)-dibrevianamide F (13), (-)-SF-5280-451 (14), tetratryptomycin A (15), (-)-tryprophenaline (17), and (-)-SF-5280-415 (18), has been carried out starting from the corresponding bispyrrolidinoindolines derived from tryptophan. Our efforts to synthesize all possible diastereomers of the natural ditryptoleucine isolates uncovered structural factors that determine the rate and efficiency of dioxopiperazine ring formation, leading in some cases to mixtures of diastereomers by concomitant epimerization, to the formation of their putative monomeric dioxopiperazine dipeptide biogenetic precursors, and to the alternative formation of a dimer with a fused 1,3,5-triazepan-6-one heterocycle.
