Abstract:
The present invention relates to stereochemically defined polypropionates and methods for preparing and using the same. The stereochemically defined polypropionates may be useful in the synthesis of natural products and/or natural product-like libraries.
Abstract:
In general, the invention features compounds useful for the synthesis of analogs of halichondrin B, such as eribulin or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, e.g., eribulin mesylate. Exemplary compounds are of formula (I), (II), or (III):
Abstract:
The invention provides methods for the synthesis of a halichondrin macrolides or analogs thereof through a cyclization reaction strategy. The strategy of the present invention involves subjecting an intermediate to Prins reaction conditions to afford a macrolide. The invention also provides compounds useful as intermediates in the synthesis of a halichondrin macrolides or analogs thereof and methods for preparing the same.
Abstract:
The invention provides methods for the synthesis of eribulin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof (e.g., eribulin mesylate) through a macrocyclization strategy. The macrocyclization strategy of the present invention involves subjecting a non-macrocyclic intermediate to a carbon-carbon bond-forming reaction (e.g., an olefination reaction (e.g., Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons olefination), Dieckmann reaction, catalytic Ring-Closing Olefin Metathesis, or Nozaki-Hiyama-Kishi reaction) to afford a macrocyclic intermediate. The invention also provides compounds useful as intermediates in the synthesis of eribulin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and methods for preparing the same.

The macrocyclization strategy of the present invention involves subjecting a non-macrocyclic intermediate to a carbon-carbon bond-forming reaction (e.g., an olefination reaction (e.g., Homer-Wadsworth-Emmons olefination), Dieckmann reaction, catalytic Ring-Closing Olefin Metathesis, or Nozaki-Hiyama-Kishi reaction) to afford a macrocyclic intermediate. The invention also provides compounds useful as intermediates in the synthesis of eribulin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and methods for preparing the same.
