Abstract
A four-step synthesis of five- and six-membered E/F ring spiroethers from tigogenin has been developed. An efficient strategy that features bis-Grignard reaction of dinorcholanic lactone with appropriate bis(bromomagnesio)alkanes followed by acid-mediated spirocyclization was employed to construct a new class of steroid compounds having E and F ring junction as an oxa-carbacyclic system. The synthesized carbaanalogs interact with liposomes and albumin, and also exhibit antibacterial and antifungal activity, demonstrating their pharmacological potential.
