  1. Diazonamide A: The Long Story of a Misunderstood Molecule Seminar presented by Elisia Villemure February 14, 2008

  2. The Origin of Diazonamide • Isolated from the colonial ascidian Diazona angulata • Collected from the ceilings of caves along the northwest coast of Siquijor Island in the Philippines Fenical, W.; Clardy, J. J. Am. Chem. Soc.1991, 113, 2303

  3. Why Is this Molecule So Interesting? Over the years, many groups focused their efforts towards the synthesis of Diazonamide A. Only K. C. Nicolaou’s and P. G. Harran’s groups had been able to complete the total synthesis of the molecule. • Diazonamide A has a IC50 of 2-5 nM against 4 human cancer cell lines (Diazonamide A is more potent than Diazonamide B) • Molecule is trapped as a single atropisomer because of its rigidity • Macrolactam unit • Macrocyclic Heterocyclic core • Quaternary center at the center of the molecule Initially proposed structure Fenical, W.; Clardy, J. J. Am. Chem. Soc.1991, 113, 2303

  4. Structure Determination of Diazonamide A and B Structures determined by William Fenical (Scripps Institution of Oceanography) And Jon Clardy (Cornell University) in 1991 Diazonamide A Diazonamide B Fenical, W.; Clardy, J. J. Am. Chem. Soc.1991, 113, 2303

  6. Evidence of the Presence of an Hemiacetal in Diazonamide A and B Fenical, W.; Clardy, J. J. Am. Chem. Soc.1991, 113, 2303

  7. Evidence on the Structure of Diazonamide A and B Diazonamide A Diazonamide B Similarity in the 2 structures • 1H, 13C NMR, UV and IR indicate an identical polycyclic nucleus • UV shows evidence of their high degree of unsaturation Fenical, W.; Clardy, J. J. Am. Chem. Soc.1991, 113, 2303

  8. Evidences on the Structure of Diazonamide A and B Diazonamide A Diazonamide B MS (M + H – H2O): C40H35N6O6Cl2 C35H24N5O5Cl2Br • + 5 Carbons • + 11 Hydrogens • + 1 Nitrogen • + 1 Oxygen • + 1 Bromine An valine extra residue fits the differences in the molecular formula and coincides with NMR assignment Fenical, W.; Clardy, J.
