meroterpenoids are fungal derived hybrid natural product class containing a 1,2,4-trisubstituted benzene ring and a polycyclic terpenoid part. The representatives applanatumol E, H and I, lingzhilactone B, and meroapplanin B share the same bicyclic lactone moiety connected to the arene. Employing photo-Fries rearrangements as the key step enabled a general entry to these natural products. For the synthesis of the tetracyclic framework of lingzhiol, we made use of a powerful photoredox oxidative decarboxylation/Friedel-Crafts sequence.
倍半萜类化合物是一类真菌衍生的杂合天然产物,含有 1,2,4-三取代苯环和多环萜烯部分。代表化合物 applanatumol E、H 和 I、lingzhilactone B 和 meroapplanin B 共享连接芳烃的双环内酯部分。采用光-Fries 重排作为关键步骤,为这些天然产物的合成提供了通用方法。对于灵脂醇的四环骨架的合成,我们利用了强大的光氧化还原脱羧/Friedel-Crafts 序列。
