Bone collagen cross-links: a convergent synthesis of (+)-deoxypyrrololine.
A convergent total synthesis of (+)-deoxypyrrololine (Dpl, 4), a putative cross-link of bone collagen, is described starting from a commercially available L-glutamic acid derivative, (4S)-5-(tert-butoxy)-4-[(tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino]-5- oxopentanoic acid (16). Condensation of aldehyde (S)-(-)-17 with nitro compound (S)-(-)-27, both of which were prepared from a common precursor (S)-16, gave the alpha-hydroxynitro compound 28, which upon acetylation afforded alpha-acetoxynitro compound 14 in good yield. Subsequent condensation and cyclization of alpha-acetoxynitro compound 14 with benzyl isocyanoacetate (15) in the presence of DBU in THF gave the key pyrrole intermediate (S,S)-(-)-12 in 57% yield. N-Alkylation of pyrrole (S,S)-(-)-12 with iodide (S)-(-)-13 using t-BuOK in THF afforded the 2-benzyloxycarbonyl-1,3,4-substituted pyrrole derivative (-)-29 in 42% yield. Removal of the protective groups in (-)-29 followed by hydrogenolysis and decarboxylation afforded the cross-link (+)-Dpl (4) in good overall yield. The synthesis of an analogue (S)-(+)-24 and formation of a novel tetrahydroindole derivative (-)-31 are also described.[1]References
