A stereodivergent strategy has been devised to access the diene motif found in biologically active compounds from the Piperaceae family. Herein the first total syntheses of 2E,4E configured piperchabamide E (2) and its enantiomer (ent-2), as well as 2E,4Z configured scutifoliamide B (3), are narrated. The mainstay in the adopted approach is the gram-scale conversion of quaternized pyridine in a practical three-step sequence to access isomerically pure conjugated bromodiene esters 2E,4E8 and 2E,4Z9 by differential crystallization. Even though the developed oxidation protocol forms the basis of the entailed divergent strategy, the geometrical integrity of the involved bromodiene motive can be controlled by the choice of solvent. Thus, while oxidation of pure bromodienal 2E,4Z7 in methanol yields equal amounts of bromodiene esters 2E,4E8 and 2E,4Z9, only bromodiene ester 2E,4Z10 is formed in isopropanol. Subseqently, capitalizing on a stereoretentive Suzuki cross-coupling and direct amidation of the corresponding esters, the featured natural products can be accessed in five and six steps, respectively. The somewhat surprising (R)-configured amine portion, which has been assigned to piperchabamide E (2), is facilitated by a Curtius rearrangement. Following this, the actual amine portion is shown to be (S)-configured. This journal is
Stereoselective synthesis of protectin D1: A potent anti-inflammatory and proresolving lipid mediator

A convergent stereoselective synthesis of the potent anti-inflammatory, proresolving and neuroprotective lipid mediator protectin D1 (2) has been achieved in 15% yield over eight steps. The key features were a stereocontrolled Evans-aldol reaction with Nagao's chiral auxiliary and a highly selective Lindlar reduction of internal alkyne 23, allowing the sensitive conjugated E,E,Z-triene to be introduced late in the preparation of 2. The UV and LC/MS-MS data of synthetic protectin D1 (2) matched those obtained from endogenously produced material.
