Article Title: | The total synthesis of heliquinomycinone |
Abstract: | A strategy for the synthesis of heliquinomycin, a selective helicase inhibitor, hinges on the spirocyclization of precursor 3. Naphthofuran 1 and aldehyde 2 were readily prepared and used in the synthesis of 3. The key steps in the total synthesis of heliquinomycinone (4) include the regioselective dihydroxylation of 3, and a novel spirocyclization under Mitsunobu conditions. |
