摘要
We achieved a total synthesis of largazole. The optically active P-hydroxycarbonyl unit was prepared from a modified Nagao's N-acetylthiazolidinethione. A 4-methylthiazoline-thiazole amino ester was prepared by both a step-by-step method and tandem cyclization from Cys-2-MeCys-containing tripeptide. Amidation of the activated P-hydroxycarbonyl unit and 4-methylthiazoline-thiazole-containing amino ester, followed by esterification with N-Fmoc valine afforded cyclization precursor after selective removal of the methyl ester at the C-terminus and the Fmoc group at the N-terminus. Macrolactamization, deprotection of thiol, and S-acylation provided largazole. Biological evaluation of its S-modified derivatives as well as the synthetic largazole exhibited strong inhibitory activity against histone deacetylases (HDAC).
