Synthesis of dysideaproline e using organocatalysis

(S)-4,4-Dichloro-3-methylbutanoic acid was prepared in 51% overall yield from commercially available starting materials using an organocatalytic transfer hydrogenation to 4,4-dichloro-3-methylbut-2-enal in the key step. The (S)-dichloro acid was used as an intermediate in the first total synthesis of dysideaproline E and a diastereomer confirming the structure of the natural product.

Pharmaceutical compositions containing didemnins

This invention is directed to didemnin derivatives, including N-acyl congeners of didemnin A (DA); several DDB-type analogues of DA in which either pyruvic acid has been replaced (with phenylpyruvic acid or alphaketobutyric acid) or proline at position 8 has been replaced [with L-azetidine-2-carboxylic acid (AZT), L-pipecolic acid (Pip), 1-amino-1-carboxylic cyclopentane (acc 5), D-Pro or sarcosine (sar); and other cyclic depsipeptides related to the didemnins, which were isolated from a relatively polar extract of the tunicate T. solidum; namely the didemnins--X [(R)-3-hydroxy-decanoyl-(Gln) 3 -Lac-Pro didemnin A]; Y [(R)-3-hydroxy-decanoyl-(Gln) 4 -Lac-Pro didemnin A]; M (pGlu-Gln-Lac-Pro-didemnin A); N ([Tyr 5 ] didemnin B); nordidemnin N ([Tyr 5 ] nordidemnin B); and epididemnin A ([2S,4R-Hip 2 ] didemnin A).
