RESUMO
The first total synthesis of (-)-TAN-2483B, a fungal metabolite possessing a densely functionalized furo[3,4-b]pyran-5-one framework, is achieved in 14 steps from d-mannose. Generation of the 2,6-trans-pyran is by cyclopropane ring expansion followed by α-selective alkynylation. Julia-Kocienski olefination introduces the E-propenyl side chain. Alkyne functionalization and carbonylation stereoselectively establish the bicyclic core of (-)-TAN-2483B. Inhibition of kinases Btk and Bmx, bacterial priority pathogens, and cytokine production in splenocytes indicates promising therapeutic potential.

The fungal metabolite TAN-2483B has a 2,6-trans-relationship across the pyran ring of its furo[3,4-b]pyran-5-one core, which has thwarted previous attempts at its synthesis. We have now developed a chiral pool approach to this core and prepared side-chain analogues of TAN-2483B. The synthesis relies on ring expansion of a reactive furan ring-fused dibromocyclopropane and alkynylation of the resulting pyran. The furan ring is constructed by palladium-catalysed carbonylative lactonisation. Various side-chains are appended through Wittig-type chemistry. The prepared analogues showed micromolar activity towards cancer cell lines HL-60, 1A9 and MCF-7 and certain human disease-relevant kinases, including Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk).
