The synthesis of novel sphingoid base-like compounds with a quaternary stereocentre was achieved in a sequence featuring [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangements and olefin cross-metathesis transformation as the key reaction steps, which were accompanied by the rational selection of suitable functional group transformations. The stereochemistry of the desired tetra-substituted carbon bearing nitrogen functionality was determined via NOESY experiments of the advanced oxazolidine-2-thiones. Cell viability experiments revealed significant antiproliferative/cytotoxic activity of the target compounds 7, ent-7 and 29 against the Jurkat cell line, with the IC50 values of 6.6 μM, 5.6 μM and 6.1 μM, respectively.
