The use of computer molecular modeling to design a potential cross-linking reagent selective for the G-C rich regions of DNA is described. The target structure, the imino epoxide 7, is synthesized in 11 steps from N-Boc-proline methyl ester (8). Redox chemistry of certain key intermediates affords several interesting intramolecular rearrangements such as the conversion of the thioimidate epoxide 22 to the tetracylic product 26 via the transient species 23-25. Reduction of the hydroxy tosylate 21 with aluminum amalgam also yields a tetracyclic compound, the tetrahydrofuran derivative 30, a result of the cyclization of the unstable iminium alcohol 29 derived from the initial reduction intermediate, the dihydro derivative 28. A fragmentation of the tetracycle 30 than yields directly the desired imino epoxide 7, generating both reactive functionalities in a single step.
