Synthetic efforts toward fumonisin analog were described. These are accomplished via amino acid Schiff base methodology. These efforts can be divided three major phases. First, tandem reductive alkylation with DIBAL/TRIBAL and different types of organo-lithium or Grignard nucleophiles provided threo-amino alcohol with excellent stereoselecitivites (2-27:1). The reductive alkylation utilized most hydrocarbon nucleophiles, e.g. alkyl-, vinyl-, alkenyl-, phenyl-, and dienyl-, and afforded high selectivites unless donor solvents (e.g. THF and Et2O) were used. Second, syntheses of the protected threo-γ-amino-β-hydroxy aldehydes and their stereoselectivities were introduced. The reductive alkylated threo-amino allyl alcohol was transformed via Brown’s hydroboration/oxidation protocol with 9-BBN, followed by TEMPO oxidation to give the resultant aldehydes in reasonable yields. Then, TBDPS and Schiff base protected aldehyde was coupled with phenyl- and decyl Grignard reagents to obtain predominant 3,5-anti-diols (ca. 80:20 anti:syn), characterized by ¹³C NMR analysis of Rychnovsky’s 1,3-acetonide groups. Products can be useful analogues for fumonisin and 5-hydroxy-sphingosine due to their structural similarity. Third stage involved the synthesis of C₁₁-C₂₀ fragment analog of fumonisin. Chiral auxiliaries (e.g. Evans and Myers) were administrated for stereoselective methylation, Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation in the presence of (DHQ)2PHAL catalyst was performed to form 1,2- syn-diols, and the manipulation of protection/deprotection and Finklestein reaction furnished C₁₁-C₂₀ fragment analog of fumonisin.
