โฆ Synopsis
The synthesis of the C6-C 13 aziridino [ 1,2a]pyrrolidine core substructure of the antitumor agents azinomycins A (la) and B (lb) is described. Key synthetic steps included Wadsworth-Horner-Emmons olefination for formation of the C7-C8 double bond, an E-selective electrophilic bromination of the C8 position, and a stereospecific intramolecular addition-elimination reaction sequence for formation of the N-C8 pyrrolidine bond.
