Synthesis and evaluation of antidiabetic tmpa derivatives via Ir(iii)-catalyzed C−H alkylation

A

ntidiabetic medication has revolutionized the treatment of metabolic disorders derived from high blood sugar level. In

particular, the use of antidiabetics such as glucagon-like peptide (GLP) agonists, KATP channel inhibitors, AMP-activated

protein kinase (AMPK) signaling activators, α-glucosidase inhibitors, and PPAR-γ inhibitors, has received considerable

attention as potential medical agents because of their interesting pharmacological effects. Recently, natural antidiabetic

octaketide metabolites, cytosporones A and B, have been isolated by Clardy in 2000. Notably, cytosporone B has been

demonstrated to bind to the ligand-biding domain of nuclear orphan receptor 77 (Nur77) and stimulate the control of LKB1-

mediated AMPK activation. Additionally, unnatural TMPA (ethyl 2-[2,3,4-trimethoxy-6-(1-octanoyl) phenyl]acetate) was also

found to enhance AMPKα phosphorylation through reducing the NUR77−LKB1 interaction. Despite of the potent antidiabetic

activity and relatively simple structure of TMPA, the single synthetic strategy has been reported for the preparation of TMPA

derivatives. However, this strategy presents intrinsic drawbacks, namely, the multi-step synthesis (longest linear 7 steps) and

harsh reaction conditions including Friedel−Craft intramolecular acylation, OsO4-mediated dihydroxylation and Pinick

oxidation. We herein disclose the ketone-directed Ir(III)- and Rh(III)-catalyzed ortho-C−H alkylation of acetophenones

with Meldrum’s diazo esters. As results, this protocol may be beneficial to guide the design a variety of antidiabetic TMPA

derivatives, and represents a catalytic alternative to transcend the barriers imposed by previous multi-step synthetic approach.
