    Abstract Covering: 1970 to 2020By definition total synthesis is the art and science of making the molecules of living Nature in the laboratory, and by extension, their analogues. Although obvious, its application to the synthesis of molecules for biology and medicine was not always the purpose of total synthesis. In recent years, however, the field has acquired momentum as its power to reach higher molecular complexity and diversity is increasing, and as the demand for rare bioactive natural products and their analogues is expanding due to their recognised potential to facilitate biology and drug discovery and development. Today this component of total synthesis endeavors is considered highly desirable, and could be part of interdisciplinary academic and/or industrial partnerships, providing further inspiration and momentum to the field. In this review we provide a brief historical background of the emergence of the field of total synthesis as it relates to making molecules for biology and medicine. We then discuss specific examples of this practice from our laboratories as they developed over the years. The review ends with a conclusion and future perspectives for natural products chemistry and its applications to biology and medicine and other added-value contributions to science and society.

  7. Article ; Online: Total Synthesis of Gukulenin B via Sequential Tropolone Functionalizations.

    Nicolaou, K C / Yu, Ruocheng / Lu, Zhaoyong / Alvarez, Fernando G

    Abstract The synthesis of functionalized aromatic compounds is a central theme of research for modern organic chemistry. Despite the increasing finesse in the functionalization of five- and six-membered aromatic rings, their seven-membered-ring sibling, tropolone (2-hydroxy-2,4,6-cycloheptatrien-1-one), remains a challenging target for synthetic derivatization. This challenge primarily emanates from the unique structural and chemical properties of tropolonoid compounds, which often lead to unexpected and undesired reaction outcomes under conditions developed for the functionalizations of other aromatic moieties. Herein, we describe the total synthesis of one of the most complex natural tropolonoids, gukulenin B. Our synthetic route features a series of site-selective aromatic C-H bond functionalizations and C-C bond formations, whose reaction conditions are judiciously tuned to allow uncompromised performance on the tropolone nucleus. The flexibility and modularity of our synthesis are expected to facilitate further synthetic and biological studies of the gukulenin family of cytotoxins. In addition, the methods and tactics developed herein for the functionalization of the tropolone moiety could inspire and enable chemists of multiple disciplines to take advantage of this privileged yet underexplored structural motif.

    Abstract With a number of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) approved for clinical use as targeted cancer therapies and numerous candidates in clinical trials, the field of ADCs is emerging as one of the frontiers in biomedical research, particularly in the area of cancer treatment. Chemists, biologists and clinicians, among other scientists, are partnering their expertise to improve their design, synthesis, efficacy and precision as they strive to advance this paradigm of personalized and targeted medicine to treat cancer patients more effectively and to expand its scope to other indications. Just as Alexander Fleming's penicillin, and the myriad other bioactive natural products that followed its discovery and success in the clinic, ignited a revolution in medicine after the Second World War, so did calicheamicin γ

    Abstract The current state of affairs in the drug discovery and development process is briefly summarized and then ways to take advantage of the ever-increasing fundamental knowledge and technical knowhow in chemistry and biology and related disciplines are discussed. The primary motivation of this Essay is to celebrate the great achievements of chemistry, biology, and medicine and to inform and inspire students and academics to enter the field of drug discovery and development while, at the same time, continue to advance the fundamentals of their disciplines. It is also meant to encourage and catalyze multidisciplinary partnerships between academia and industry as scientists attempt to merge their often complementary interests and expertise to achieve new improvements and breakthroughs in their respective fields, and the common goal of applying them to the discovery and invention of new and better medicines, especially in areas of unmet needs.
