Abstract

The synthesis of 7-N-acetyldemethyllavendamycin butyl amide (47), 7-Nacetyldemethyllavendamycin isopropyl amide (48), 7-N-acetyldemethyllavendamycin amide of piperidine (49), 7-N-acetyldemethyllavendamycin amide of pyrrolidine (50), 7N-acetyldemethyllavendamycin amide of morpholine (51), demethyllavendamycin butyl amide (52), demethyllavendamycin amide of pyrrolidine (53), and demethyllavendamycin amide of morpholine (54) are described. Pictet Spengler condesation of 7-acetamido-2formylquinoline-5,8-dione (28) with tryptophan butyl amide (66), tryptophan isopropyl amide (67), tryptophan amide of piperidine (68), tryptophan amide of pyrrolidine (69), and tryptophan amide of morpholine (70) in an anisole - pyridine solution directly afforded the five lavendamycin amides 47-51. Compounds 52, 53, and 54 were obtained by hydrolysis of 47, 50, and 51 with 70% H2SO4-H20 solution.Aldehyde 28 was prepared according to the following general procedure.Nitration of 8-hydroxy-2-methylquinoline (30) yielded 8-hydroxy-2-methyl-5,7 dinitroquinoline (31). Compound 31 was then hydrogenated and acylated with acetic anhydride to yield 5,7-diacetamido-2-methyl-8-acetoxyquinoline (33). Compound 33 was oxidized by potassium dichromate to give 7-acetamido-2-methylquinoline-5,8-dione (27). Treatment of 27 with selenium dioxide in refluxing 1,4-dioxane afforded compound 28.Compounds 66, 67, 68, 69, and 70 were synthesized from compounds 61,62, 63, 64, and 65. These compounds were deprotected with ammonium formate in the presence of 10% Palladium on charcoal in methanol under an argon balloon at atmospheric pressure.Compounds 61, 62, 63, 64, and 65 were obtained from 58 with butylamine, isopropylamine, piperidine, pyrrolidine, and morpholine respectively in the presence of triethylamine under an argon balloon at atmospheric pressure.Compound 58 was synthesized by the reaction of N-carbobenzyloxytryptophan, with N-hydroxy succinimide, in the presence of N-dicyclohexylcarbodimide in dried and distilled dioxane under an argon balloon at atmospheric pressure.The structures of the novel compounds 58, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, and 54 were confirmed by 1H NMR, IR, EIMS, and HRMS.The structures of protected and deprotected amides 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, and 70 were also confirmed by 1 H NMR and IR spectroscopy.
