Description:
In this paper, a practical approach for the total synthesis of kipukasin A is presented with 22% overall yield by using tetra- O -acetyl-β-D-ribose as starting material. An improved iodine-promoted acetonide-forming reaction was developed to access 1,2- O -isopropylidene-α-D-ribofuranose. For the first time, ortho- alkynylbenzoate was used as protecting group for the 5-hydoxy group. After subsequent Vorbrüggen glycosylation, the protecting group could be removed smoothly in the presence of 5 mol % Ph 3 PAuOTf in dichloromethane to provide kipukasin A in high yield and regioselectivity.
