Abstract

The total syntheses of sparsomycin (l), a naturally occurring antibiotic and antitumor substance, and its three stereomers 65-67 are described for the first time. In a convergent approach, the carboxylic acid 2 and the amine 3 were synthesized followed by amide formation (Scheme I). The acid 2 was prepared (23% yield) from 6-methyluracil (12) by coupling the aldehyde 19 with the phosphorane 20 (Scheme 111). The synthesis of the ...
