英文摘要
Tetrodotoxin (TTX) and azadirachtin share many common characteristics.
Both are legendary in folklore, the former as the potent toxin of the
Japanese puffer fish, the latter as the mysterious ingredient of the neem
tree, used for thousands of years throughout the Indian subcontinent as a
insecticide and germicide. Both compounds defied several decades of effort
by eminent chemists on several continents towards structure elucidation,
both structures being finally solved by physical rather than chemical
methods.
TTX exerts its action by blocking ion channels of excitable membranes, and
this property is highly valued since it allows biochemists to identify and
isolate these poorly understood biological structures. At the present time
the puffer fish is the major source of the TTX used in laboratories, and
there is a great need for a flexible synthetic approach that will permit
the preparation of analogs for use in structure/activity studies. From
such studies a better understanding of the transmission of impulses
through excitable membranes will emerge.
Azadirachtin is available from its natural source in greater quantities
than TTX, and so chemical transformations have already shed light on some
aspects of its structure/activity profile. But because of the complexity
of the molecule, far more needs to be done. In addition to using it for
its insecticidal properties, rural Indians use the neem tree for dental
care. Thus they chew the soft branches of the tree, the juice acting as a
dentifrice and the fibers as dental floss. A German toothpaste has
recently appeared on the market which incorporates azadirachtin. The
chemical basis for this dental care has yet to be clarified.
Both molecules may be regarded as "densely-functionalized carbocycles", a
category of natural products for which our laboratory has been developing
methodology in the context of our carbohydrate-to-carbocycle
transformations. For several years we have shown free radical methods to
be ideal for carbohydrate manipulations in view of the fact that the
multiple functional groups present in these substances are usually
unaffected during these reactions. In view of the rich functionalization
of TTX and azadirachtin, the application of free-radical procedures for
their construction therefore resonates with our interests, and indeed in
our approach to both molecules, free radical methodology features very
prominently for several key transformations. Also of long standing
interest is the Diels Alder reaction, ever since our laboratory showed
that there are dramatic differences in rates and yield between
carbohydrate alpha-enones and their carbocyclic counterparts. It is
therefore very appropriate that our approach to azadirachtin combines both
of these methodologies, free radical and Diels Alder.
