Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of N-analogous corollosporines.
Corollosporine is an antimicrobial metabolite, which was isolated from the marine fungus Corollospora maritima. Owing to its basic 4-hydroxyphthalic acid anhydride structure, it has become an attractive target for a structure/activity relationship modelling of derived compounds with potential antibiotic activity. In this regard we report on the straightforward synthesis of hetero analogous corollosporines, which were easily prepared by a three-step reaction sequence, taking advantage of a novel multicomponent reaction (AAD-reaction) and a subsequent aromatization/Grignard reaction protocol. Furthermore, the obtained products were tested in several biological assays to evaluate their antimicrobial activity.
