Method for the synthesis of bis-tetrahydrofuranyl Annonaceous acetogenins

摘要

A method for the synthesis of bis-tetrahydrofuranyl Annonaceous acetogenins, including the natural products and analogs thereof, is provided which proceeds by the Pd-mediated coupling of a bis- tetrahydrofuranyl-subunit comprising a terminal alkyne, with a (C4)- hydroxybutenolide subunit comprising a terminal vinyl iodide, followed by selective reduction of the resulting enyne.
