Expeditious Synthesis of Vialinin B, an Extremely Potent Inhibitor of TNF-α Production
摘要:
A first total synthesis of vialinin B, a powerful inhibitor (IC50 20 pM) of TNF-alpha production, is described. The key reactions include a double Suzuki-Miyaura coupling of electron-rich aryl bromide with a couple of phenylboronic acids, a Cu-mediated Ullmann reaction, and a LHMDS-promoted phenylacetylation. This synthesis proceeded in 11 steps with 18% overall yield from a known sesamol derivative.

Synthesis of polyozellin, a prolyl oligopeptidase inhibitor, and its structural revision
an inhibitory activity against prolyl oligopeptidase (POP). Its structure was assigned as 1 having a p-terphenyl skeleton including a p-substituted dibenzofuran moiety by spectroscopic analyses and chemical means. This paper describes the total syntheses of the proposed structure 1 for polyozellin and its o-isomer 2, revising the structure of polyozellin to the latter. These syntheses involved a double
