Described herein is a function‐oriented synthesis route and biological evaluation of pseudoguaianolide analogues. The 10‐step synthetic route developed retains the topological complexity of the natural product, installs functional handles for late‐stage diversification, and forges the key bioactive Michael acceptors early in the synthesis. The analogues were found to be low‐micromolar Nrf2 activators
本文描述的是一种以功能为导向的合成路线和拟番石榴酸内酯类似物的生物学评价。开发的10步合成路线保留了天然产物的拓扑复杂性,为后期的多样化安装了功能性手柄,并在合成初期锻造了关键的生物活性迈克尔受体。发现这些类似物是低微摩尔浓度的Nrf2激活剂和微摩尔浓度的NF-κB抑制剂,并且取决于迈克尔受体部分的局部环境。
