Microwave-assisted intramolecular Suzuki-Miyaura reaction to macrocycle, a concise asymmetric total synthesis of biphenomycin B

摘要

A concise and efficient total synthesis of biphenomycin B has been accomplished featuring a key microwave-assisted intramolecular Suzuki-Miyaura reaction for formation of the 15-membered meta, meta-cyclophane 20.
