The Quest for a Practical Synthesis of Morphine Alkaloids and Their Derivatives by Chemoenzymatic Methods
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
We became interested in approaches to morphine in the early 1990s following our immersion into the new program on the enzymatic dihydroxylation of aromatics. Larry Kwart, a former classmate of one of us at Rice University, who worked with our group at Virginia Tech in the mid-1980s, introduced to us the use of blocked mutants of Pseudomonas putida (Pp39D) for the production of arene-cis-dihydrodiols. Larry had gained expertise in microbiology from a postdoctoral stay with David Gibson, who discovered this unique enzymatic transformation, and he helped us to establish a strong program in chemoenzymatic synthesis that continues to this day. Without his pioneering effort, none of our accomplishments in chemoenzymatic synthesis, including the various approaches to morphine, would have materialized. Here we trace the evolution of our approaches to morphine alkaloids and some commercial opiate-derived medicinal agents. The design features and chronology of our approaches are discussed in a way that allows the reader to appreciate a number of errors that were made in conception as well as in execution. Experience acquired from many failed or less-than-effective attempts has finally led to an "almost reasonable" total synthesis, the key concept being based on our very first but unsuccessful attempt more than two decades ago. The irony of this accomplishment has not been lost on us. Each section of this Account presents a summary of distinctly different approaches to morphine alkaloids. Each ends with a short and philosophical lesson that was (or should have been) learned in the process. We intend for this Account to offer more than the history of a search for the perfect design solution to a synthetic problem. In today's era of rapid and often careless publication of results, it should serve also as a reminder that the success and the integrity of synthetic ventures depends on perseverance, adjustment of strategy, improvements of previous attempts, and serious attention to the quality of experimental data. Although somewhat satisfied with our latest accomplishment in morphinan synthesis, we plan to improve our design in the hope that a six-step synthesis is no longer in the realm of fantasy. With more than 20 years of effort in this area, our continuing involvement may qualify as obsession.

Prédiction machine sur la base complète
Imitation des enseignantsNi prévalence calibrée, ni vérité terrain. Validation humaine à venir. Le volet Gemma est une étiquette directe du modèle pour chaque travail de la base, lue sur la notice réduite au titre. Le volet Codex est un classifieur appris des 10 348 étiquettes directes de Codex et calibré sur les taux pondérés de l'échantillon; les champs sans appui suffisant ne portent aucun appel Codex. Le mode candidate est l'union des deux volets; le consensus est leur intersection. Ces sorties portent le statut machine_predicted_unvalidated et ne sont pas des étiquettes humaines.
