RESUMO
Pyridones are versatile building blocks in organic synthesis and a privileged motif in drug discovery. However, N-substituted 2-pyridones bearing an α-tertiary carbon, cyclopropyl, or heterocycle off of the pyridone nitrogen atom remain challenging to prepare. Herein, we describe the efficient synthesis of a large variety of N-substituted 2-pyridones from ethyl nitroacetate and readily available primary amine building blocks, which can be utilized on a large scale and in parallel medicinal chemistry applications.

Prins reaction of homoallenyl alcohols with aldehyde dimethylacetals in the presence of methoxyacetic acid directly affords tetrasubstituted pyrans relevant to halichondrins with complete control of the C27 stereogenic center. Regioselective Tsuji reduction of the resultant allylic acetates stereoselectively establishes the C25 stereogenic center and C26 exocyclic olefin. Building upon these findings, we achieved concise access to the halichondrin C14-C38 and eribulin C14-C35 fragments.
RESUMO
Crystallization-induced diastereoselective transformation (CIDT) of an α-methyl nitrile completes an entirely non-chromatographic synthesis of the halichondrinâ B C14-C26 stereochemical array. The requisite α-methyl nitrile substrate is derived from D-quinic acid through a series of substrate-controlled stereoselective reactions via a number of crystalline intermediates that benefit from a rigid polycyclic template. Therefore, all four stereogenic centers in the Halaven C14-C26 fragment were derived from the single chiral source D-quinic acid.
