During the course of studies on the synthesis of diazonamide A1, an unusualO-aryl intoC-aryl rearrangement was discovered that allows partial control of the absolute stereochemistry of the C-10 quaternary stereogenic center. Treatment of30with TBAF/THF gave theO-tyrosine ethers31and32(1:1), which on heating each separately in chloroform at reflux rearranged to33and34in ratios of 84:16 and 56:44, respectively. This corresponds to a 70% yield of the correct C-10 stereoisomer33and a 30% yield of the wrong C-10 stereoisomer34. Attempts to convert34into33byipso-protonation and equilibration were unsuccessful. Confirmation of the stereochemical outcome of the rearrangement was obtained by converting33into37, an advanced intermediate in the first synthesis of diazonamide A by Nicolaou et al. It was also found that the success of the above rearrangement is sensitive to the protecting group on both the tryptophan nitrogen atom and the tyrosine nitrogen atom.
