The Biogenic Origin of Halogenated Natural Products

• Chlorine is incorporated by nucleophilic displacement as Cl- or through the reactions of alkenes with

chloroperoxidases (CPO's), ie as "Cl+"

• Bromine is almost exlusively incorproated as "Br+" by bromoperoxidases (BrPO's)

• Iodoperoxidases have been identified, but not studied in as much detail as CPO and BrPO

As a result, most halogen-bearing stereogenic centers occur as halohydrins or polycyclics!

• The vast majority of the natural products herein discussed are isolated from the seaweeds (algae) of the genus Laurencia and Plocamium. • Sea hares of the species Aplysia that feed on the seaweed are also sources of the natural products and can modify them

"One of the most interesting, yet unsolved problems in the area of marine biohalogenation, is the biogenesis of the chiral halogenated marine natural products." Butler, A. Chem. Rev., 1993, 93, 1937–1944.

"All haloperoxidases catalyze smooth, yet unselective chlorination, bromination or iodination of relatively electron-rich groups in organic compounds...However, there must be more stereo- and/or regioselective halogenating enzymes in nature, regarding the presence of halometabolites like 44 and 45."Franssen, M.

• Before the 1988 synthesis of Laurenyne by Overman, there was only one synthesisof an oxocane-containing natural product known, ie T. Masumune's synthesis of Laurencin in0.003% yield.

• In the last decade, however, many syntheses of medium-ring ether natural products from theLaurencia series have appeared.

"The synthesis of lactone 1 as reported by J. S. Clark, Ph. D. Thesis, Cambridge University,1988, is correct. The synthesis of (+)-laurencin in ref 1 is difficult to account for and must probably be charged to the fallibility of the other junior author and the gullibility of the senior author."

Summary

• Many selective approaches to the construction of halogen-bearing stereocenters have been developed

• Nucleophilic displacement of alcohols is an important and selective method for the construction of a bromine-bearing center

• Mono- and polycyclizations provide the opportunity to use the introduction of bromine to control the stereo- and regiochemistry of other stereogenic centers

• Few methods are truly general and most are developed in the context of one particular natural product class
