Summary: | A total synthesis of FK-506 (1) is presented. The synthesis features a highly convergent approach utilizing a block coupling strategy. Top and bottom half sections of the molecule are coupled by addition of a vinyl cuprate with a spiroenone. The α-allyl aldol functionality is revealed by a reductive opening of the spiroenone system. The labile α,β-diketoamide hemiketal portion of the molecule is prepared by a late stage generation and oxidation of a masked enediol. Top and bottom half segments are themselves derived by coupling of smaller subunits, resulting in a very convergent route. |
