Abstract

Tubiferal A, a triterpenoid isolated from myxomycete Tubifera dimorphotheca, exhibits a reversal effect of vincristine (VCR) resistance against VCR-resistant KB cell lines. The compound possesses a complex structure involving the 6-7-6-5 polycyclic carbon framework with various functional groups. The stereoselective synthesis of the right-hand segment of tubiferal A was achieved on the basis of the cyclopentene annulation method and the semi-pinacol rearrangement reaction of an epoxy alcohol for constructing the trans-fused 6-5 bicyclic skeleton possessing two quaternary carbon atoms at the angular positions.
