Synthesis of 4-demethoxyadriamycinone utilizing ruthenium-catalyzed oxidation of allyl acetates
摘要:
A new method for the construction of the side chain of anti-cancer drugs adriamycins is demonstrated by the synthesis of 4-demethoxyadriamycinone. The key step is the ruthenium-catalyzed oxidation of allyl acetates to the corresponding alpha -hydroxyketones. (C) 7001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
