Article Title: Synthesis of glyfoline, a constituent of Glycosmis citrifolia (Willd.) Lindl. and a potential anticancer agent
Abstract: Condensation of 4-benzyloxy-3-methoxyanthranilic acid (3) with 5-iodo-1,2,3,4-tetramethoxybenzene (4) gave 6-benzyloxy-1,2,3,4,5-pentamethoxy-9-acridone (5), which was then converted into glyfoline (1) via N-methylation, selective de-O-methylation, and debenzylation. The synthetic glyfoline (1) is identical with an authentic sample isolated from plant. © 1991.
