Stachybotrys Molecules
Dong, W.-P.; Zhong, M.; Guo, X.-C.; Kende, A. S., J. Org. Chem., 2003, 7422.
Biological Activity
• Variety of biological activity• Antagonists of endothelin (cardiovascular)• Inhibititors of HIV-1 protease• Potent anti-influenza A activity• Selective inhibitor of myo-inositol monophosphatase (manic/depressive
disorders)• Anti-inflammatory

Kende’s Retrosynthesis
Failed Coupling Attempts
Dong, W.-P.; Zhong, M.; Guo, X.-C.; Kende, A. S., J. Org. Chem., 2003, 7422.
No aldehyde addition, possiblybecause of steric repulsion betweenmethyl and benzyl group.
No reason given for lack orreactivity, presumably the sameas above.
Kende’s Synthesis
Dong, W.-P.; Zhong, M.; Guo, X.-C.; Kende, A. S., J. Org. Chem., 2003, 7422.
Almost identical coupling works,why??
Benzyl ether interferes with ring formation,stronger conditions also tried.
Kende’s Synthesis
Dong, W.-P.; Zhong, M.; Guo, X.-C.; Kende, A.S., J. Org. Chem., 2003, 7422.
Wrong Regioisomer
Dong, W.-P.; Zhong, M.; Guo, X.-C.; Kende, A. S., J. Org. Chem., 2003, 7422.
X-ray of 22 and 1
1H NMR and 13C NMR spectra of 1do not match authentic sample ofSpirobenzofuranlactam, their target.
Correct Regio-isomer
Dong, W.-P.; Zhong, M.; Guo, X.-C.; Kende, A. S., J. Org. Chem., 2003, 7422.
Spectra of 27 does match thenatural product
Structure Revision
Structure proposed by Roggo et al. Hasthe wrong regiochemistry around thephenyl ring.
The new structure is consistent withother structures proposed for moleculesisolated from Stachybotrys species.
Correct Structure
Dimer Formation
Since structure of “monomer” waswrong, it was very possible that thestructure of the “dimer” was alsowrong.The correct structure should beidentical to a molecule alreadyisolated, Stachybocin A.
NMR Comparision
The NMR spectra confirm that Roggoalso mis-assigned the structure of the“pseudo-dimer”.
The NMR spectra of synthetic “pseudo-dimer” do not match that of previouslyisolated Stachybocin A.
