Looking To Nature For Inspiration (+)-11,11’-Dideoxyverticillin A • Biomimetic synthesis undertaken by Movassagi group • Biosynthesis needed to be understood • Structure is a dimer and has disulfide linkages Kim, J., Ashenhurst, J., Movassaghi, M., Science, 2009, 238-241

Can We Always Use Biosynthesis As A Starting Point? • Gives a “proven” approach • Johnson’s synthesis to Progesterone • What works for nature may not work for us • Enzymes can do reactions that we can not • Dimerization had to be changed • Source of sulfur had to be changed • Biosynthesis is simply unknown • Can be an arduous process to figure out
What If Biosynthesis Is Not Known? • Similar cores • Clive and his group attempt the synthesis Peng, J., Clive, D., J. Org. Chem., 2009, 74, 513-519

Making The S-S bond • What are our choices? • Acidic, basic, radical or enzymes??
General Approaches To Sulfenylation • Reagent examples: O2, I2, DEAD, SO2Cl2 etc… • Can tolerate many functional groups Witt, D., Synthesis, 2008, 16, 2491-2509
Using 1-Chlorobenzotriazole • SN2 displacement • Works well for unsymmetrical thiols • Long reaction times and generation of unwanted homo dimer (tough to remove) • Avoided by using correct equivalence • One pot Hunter, R.; Caira, M., Stellenboom, N. J. Org. Chem. 2006, 71, 8268
From OrganophosphorusSulfenyl Halides • Starting material is hard to prepare, purify and is prone to fast degradation • Used for unsymmetrical thiols • Extremly specific for thiols • OH, NH2, carboxyl do not need to be protected • Reaction times are rather small Antoniow, S., Witt, D. Synthesis 2007, 363
From Thiosulfates • Used for symmetericalthiols • Used for glycosidation • Practical and useful in kilo scale Davis, B. G.; Ward, S. J.; Rendle, P. M. Chem. Commun., 2001, 189
What Are The Issues? • Sensitive to oxidative or acid conditions • Need basic conditions
From Elemental Sulfur • First proposal was by Schmidt Ohler, E., Poisel, H., Tataruch, F., Schmidt, U., Chem. Ber., 1972,105, 635-641
