- Intermediates in the synthesis of camptothecin and related compounds and synthesis thereof
-
The present invention provides a short, convergent total synthesis of irinotecan and derivative compounds which comprises of a novel 4+1 radical annulation wherein the precursor is reacted with an aryl isonitrile having the formula wherein X is Br or I, and R4is an alkyl group, an allyl group, a propargyl group or a benzyl group, and R16is H, a C1-C6alkoxy group, a group wherein p is an integer between 4 and 12, or a C1-C12acyclic dialkylamino group. The present invention also provides novel chemical intermediates for such 4+1 radical annulations.

- A general synthetic approach to the (20s)-camptothecin family of antitumor agents by a regiocontrolled cascade radical cyclization of aryl isonitriles
-
A general and efficient synthesis of (20S)-camptothecin (1a) is reported. A key common intermediate containing the pyridone and lactone (DE) rings of camptothecin and most derivatives was constructed from 2-trimethylsilyl-6-methoxypyridine by a series of metalation reactions and a Heck cyclization to provide an achiral bicyclic enol ether. Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation followed by lactol oxidation and iododesilylation produced the key intermediate in 94% enantiomeric excess. Alkylation with prop-argyl bromide and a cascade radical reaction with phenyl isonitrile then produced 1a. About 20 other penta-and hexacyclic analogues of camptothecin with differing single or multiple substituents at C7, C9, C10, C11, and/or C12 were made by changing the propargylating agent and the isonitrile. Included among these are several drug candidates and the approved drugs topotecan and irinotecan. The synthesis of the prodrug irinotecan is a direct one that does not pass through the active metabolite. The use of ortho-trimethylsilyl-substituted isonitriles allows the regioselective synthesis of camptothecin analogues in cases where isomeric mixtures are formed from the parent isonitriles. The synthesis of the derivatives relies on the broad scope and functional group tolerance of the key cascade radical reaction.
