Fluorous mixture synthesis of stereoisomer libraries: total syntheses of (+)-murisolin and fifteen diastereoisomers.
The synthesis of a stereoisomer library of 16 murisolins in individual pure form by fluorous mixture synthesis is reported. Four stereoisomeric precursors are tagged with different fluorous tags, and the resulting mixture is taken through the synthesis with four splits and late stage demixing and detagging to give all 16 products. These products exhibit only six different sets of NMR spectra, but all can be differentiated by chiral HPLC. The structure of murisolin is confirmed, but the structures of murisolin A and 16,19-cis-murisolin may never be known with certainty because insufficient data were collected on natural samples to differentiate each of them from one other isomer.
