C−H Activation Enables a Concise Total Synthesis of Quinine and Analogues with Enhanced Antimalarial Activity
Abstract: We report a novel approach to the classical natural product quinine that is based on two stereoselective key steps, namely a C−H activation and an aldol reaction, to unite the two heterocyclic moieties of the target molecule. This straightforward and flexible strategy enables a concise synthesis of natural (−)‐quinine, the first synthesis of unnatural (+)‐quinine, and also provides access to unprecedented C3‐aryl analogues, which were prepared in only six steps. We additionally demonstrate that these structural analogues exhibit improved antimalarial activity compared with (−)‐quinine both in vitro and in mice infected with Plasmodium berghei.
