摘要

In this study, optical resolution conditions using trichostatic acid as a key intermediate were investigated toward the practical supply of trichostatin A. Since previously reported asymmetric synthetic routes suffered from a decrease in optical purity upon scale-up, attention was focused on racemic trichostatic acid, and optical resolution via recrystallisation of cinchonidine salts was examined. As a result, selective access to both enantiomers was achieved depending on the solvent employed. The obtained optically active trichostatic acids were converted into trichostatin A according to known procedures, and the present method enabled the preparation of both enantiomers on a multi-gram scale.
