Abstract
A model for the spiroiminal moiety of marineosins A and B was prepared starting from methylvalerolactone. Addition of vinylmagnesium bromide, protection of the alcohol, and reaction of the vinyl ketone with a protected pyrrole-2-carbonitrile N-oxide gave an isoxazoline. Hydrogenolysis of the N-O bond with Raney nickel gave a keto imine that cyclized to a hemi-iminal. O-Methylation, acid-catalyzed cleavage of the TES group and spiroiminal formation, and deprotection completed a seven-step synthesis.Entities:
