... Reactions with Carbanions Again, a negative charge at the allylic or benzylic position is much more stable than it would be in a lot of other positions. We’ve seen carbanions before in the form of Grignards or organolithiums. In those cases, we could show the carbon-metal bond as either covalent or ...

... (b) How do you account for the fact that the -COOH group of the conjugate acid of alanine is a stronger acid than the -COOH group of propanoic acid? The -NH3+ group is electron-withdrawing, so the adjacent -COOH group is made more acidic by an inductive effect. This situation is analogous to the ele ...

Discodermolide



(+)-Discodermolide is a polyketide natural product found to stabilize microtubule. (+)-discodermolide was isolated by Gunasekera and his co-workers at the Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute from the deep-sea sponge Discodermia dissoluta in 1990. (+)-Discodermolide was found to be a potent inhibitor of tumor cell growth in several MDR cancer cell lines. (+)-discodermolide also shows some unique characters, including a linear backbone structure, immunosuppressive properties both in vitro and in vivo, potent induction of an accelerated senescence phenotype, and synergistic antiproliferative activity in combination with paclitaxel. Discodermolide was recognized as one of the most potent natural promoters of tubulin assembly. A large number of efforts toward the total synthesis of (+)-discodermolide were directed by its interesting biological activities and extreme scarcity of natural sources (0.002% w/w from frozen marine sponge). The compound supply necessary for complete clinical trials cannot be met by harvesting, isolation, and purification. As of 2005, attempts at synthesis or semi-synthesis by fermentation have proven unsuccessful. As a result, all discodermolide used in preclinical studies and clinical trials has come from large-scale total synthesis.
