Enantioselective total synthesis of (-)-acylfulvene and (-)-irofulven
(Chemical Equation Presented) We report our full account of the enantioselective total synthesis of (-)-acylfulvene (1) and (-)-irofulven (2), which features metathesis reactions for the rapid assembly of the molecular framework of these antitumor agents. We discuss (1) the application of an Evans Cu-catalyzed aldol addition reaction using a strained cyclopropyl ketenethioacetal, (2) an efficient enyne ring-closing metathesis cascade reaction in a challenging setting, (3) the reagent IPNBSH for a late-stage reductive allylic transposition reaction, and (4) the final RCM/dehydrogenation sequence for the formation of (-)-acylfulvene (1) and (-)-irofulven (2).

Enantioselective total synthesis of (-)-acylfulvene and (-)-irofulven
(Chemical Equation Presented) Antitumor agents (-)-acylfulvene and (-)-irofulven are prepared in an approach that employs the powerful enyne ring-closing metathesis reaction to secure the spiro-bicyclic AB rings. Other key features of this synthesis include an efficient aldol-based introduction of the stereocenter at C2, a diazene-mediated reductive allylic transposition, and a ring-closing metathesis/oxidation sequence.

Synthesis of [3H]-illudin S, [3H]-acylfulvene, [3H]and[14C]- hydroxymethylacylfulvene (MGI 114)
Tritiated derivatives of the toxic sesquiterpene illudin S (1) have been prepared by fermentation of Omphalotus illudens in the presence of [3H]- sodium acetate. [3H]-illudin S was converted to antitumor [3H]-acylfulvene (4) by treatment with dilute sulfuric acid. Antitumor [14C]- hydroxymethylacylfulvene (5) was best prepared by reacting acylfulvene with [14C]-paraformaldehyde in dilute sulfuric acid.
