  2. CH402: Synthetic Chemistry I (Organic), lectures 1-7; Professor Martin Wills. synthetic approaches to complex target organic molecules Recommended reading (not essential but if you want to learn more or check anything): Classics in Total Synthesis; K. C. Nicolaou and E. J. Sorensen, Wiley-VCH 1996. Classics in Total Synthesis II, K. C. Nicolaou and E. J. Sorensen, VCH 2003. Molecules that changed the world, K. C. Nicolaou and T.

For more detailed reviews of particular areas, you can search the web of knowledge or Scifinder Scholar for comprehensive literature surveys.

  3. CH402: Synthetic Chemistry I (Organic), lectures 1-7; Professor Martin Wills. Specific requirements and structure of the course: 15 CATS is equivalent to around 150 study hours. There are 10 lectures of 1 h each, three workshops (1h, 2h, 2h) and a piece of assessed work which would be expected to take 15-20 hours of work. The remaining time is for self-study around the subject. For the M. Wills section of the course, a number of key references will be provided on the seven molecules selected for detailed study. These seven molecules and the associated references represent the main material for the workshops and for the examinable material. Key references will be provided for each of the seven targets in bold, and these papers should be treated as examinable material however - you do not have to learn the content by heart but should ensure that you understand the reasons for the choice of strategy and the main mechanisms, particularly with respect to the key steps indicated for each synthesis. The assessed task will involve writing an essay about the analysis of a complex synthesis (which will not be one of the seven highlighted earlier). Further information about this will be distributed early in the course. Please note that not all reagents/solvents/conditions are given for each step. In most cases only the main reagent or reagents are shown. 3

  4. 1) Introduction to strategy, disconnections, retrosynthesis, protecting groups and extreme targets which may include palytoxin, vitamin B12, brevetoxin, azadirachtin, vancomycin. Recap: disconnections, synthons, FGIs and reagents. But remember there are no ‘rules’ – the only limit is your imagination!

  21. Colchicine; Deceptively simple but actually very challenging. BBC Science news 12th Sept 2011: ‘The native British Autumn crocus, is recorded in early herbal guides as a treatment for inflammation.

  30. Intramolecular epoxide opening reactions • The synthesis of Grandisol, the pheromone of the male cotton boll weevil, and closely-related compounds, has been achieved in a very concise synthesis using a key epoxide-opening step. The high level of ring strain provides a means for the synthesis of similarly strained targets: I. Petschen, A. Parrilla, M. P. Bosch, C. Amela, A. A. Botar, F. Camps and A. Guerrero, Chem. Eur. J. 1999, 11, 3299-3309 30

  34. Discussed in MT course for binding - metathesis And structural variation but not synthesis. Epothilones - This to be the focus of Section 3. First isolated in early 1990s from soil bacterium Sorangium cellusum and found to possess antfungal activity. In 1993, they were found to possess antitumour activity in a screen run by MSD. Epothilone B was even more active than taxol and share the same binding site on tubulin. First synthesised in 1996-7. Can be prepared by fermentation processes. Tubulin is a polymeric, tube-shaped protein which for the ‘mititic spindle when cells divide – this controls the correct separation of DNA into the daughter cells. Like Taxol, epothilones bind to the tubulin in the microtubules and interfere with their operation, thus preventing mitosis. Like many anticancer drugs, epothilones are highly cytotoxic. More information on biological action in M. Tosin’s CH408 course. 34
