The tropone sesquiterpene phaeocaulisin D, isolated from the rhizomes of has previously been shown to inhibit nitric oxide production in macrophages. A total synthesis of phaeocaulisin D was accomplished by using an intramolecular cyclization-dearomatization as a key step. The highlights of the synthesis are effective formation of the 5-7 fused tropone system, and selective methylation of a late-stage intermediate.
从[植物名称]根茎中分离得到的卓酚酮倍半萜类化合物褐杆菌素D,此前已被证明可抑制巨噬细胞中一氧化氮的产生。以分子内环化-去芳构化为关键步骤完成了褐杆菌素D的全合成。该合成的亮点在于有效形成5-7稠合卓酮体系以及后期中间体的选择性甲基化。
