Abstract
A formal biomimetic synthesis of (+)-hippolachnin A has been achieved under the guidance of its plausible biosynthetic pathway. Pivotal transformations include an intriguing 1O2-mediated [4 + 2] cycloaddition and a tandem Kornblum–DeLaMare rearrangement/hemiketalization/dehydration reaction. The current work not only offers a unified approach to access skeletally diverse plakortin-type polyketides but also provides convincing evidence to elucidate their underlying biosynthetic network.
期刊介绍:
Organic Letters invites original reports of fundamental research in all branches of the theory and practice of organic, physical organic, organometallic,medicinal, and bioorganic chemistry. Organic Letters provides rapid disclosure of the key elements of significant studies that are of interest to a large portion of the organic community. In selecting manuscripts for publication, the Editors place emphasis on the originality, quality and wide interest of the work. Authors should provide enough background information to place the new disclosure in context and to justify the rapid publication format. Back-to-back Letters will be considered. Full details should be reserved for an Article, which should appear in due course.
