✦ Synopsis


The first total synthesis and biological evaluation of the naturally occurring cyclic heptapeptide rhizonin A are described. The synthesis includes solution-phase peptide synthesis and the preparation of NMe-3-(3-furyl)alanine (NMe-FurAla), a unique component of rhizonin A, which was prepared in chiral form via Barton-MacCombie deoxygenation as a key step. The bioactivity was assessed using 3T3-L1 murine adipocytes.

A five-step total synthesis of the antibiotic marinopyrrole A (1) is described. The developed synthetic technology enabled the synthesis of several marinopyrrole A analogues whose antibacterial properties against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus TCH1516 were evaluated.
