Abstract
Herein, we report the first total synthesis and confirmation of the absolute stereochemical configuration of a natural product isolated from Ageratina grandifolia as (3R,4S)-6-acetyl-3-hydroxy-7-methoxy-2,2-dimethylchroman-4-yl(Z)-2-methylbut-2-enoate. We have used readily available resorcinol as a starting material and well-established Jacobson's asymmetric epoxidation in achieving the total synthesis. During this process, we prepared its enantiomers and positional isomers, which may be useful for biological studies.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Natural Products invites and publishes papers that make substantial and scholarly contributions to the area of natural products research. Contributions may relate to the chemistry and/or biochemistry of naturally occurring compounds or the biology of living systems from which they are obtained.
Specifically, there may be articles that describe secondary metabolites of microorganisms, including antibiotics and mycotoxins; physiologically active compounds from terrestrial and marine plants and animals; biochemical studies, including biosynthesis and microbiological transformations; fermentation and plant tissue culture; the isolation, structure elucidation, and chemical synthesis of novel compounds from nature; and the pharmacology of compounds of natural origin.
When new compounds are reported, manuscripts describing their biological activity are much preferred.
