Diacetylenic isobutylamides of Echinacea: synthesis and natural distribution
摘要:
The syntheses of three diacetylenic isobutylamides of Echinacea angustifolia have been achieved by direct synthetic routes by way of a common intermediate. The key step is the alkylation of the anion of the silylated diacetylene. We report the presence of all three diacetylenic isobutylamides in six of the nine Echinacea species: E. angustifolia, E sanguinea, E. simulata, E. tennesseensis, E. atrorubens and E. laevigata. The accumulation of these amides is sensitive to organ type and age. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

The first synthesis of a diacetylenic amide from Echinacea is reported. The key steps included the reaction of an aldehyde with the monoanion of a diacetylene and the reductive removal of a propargylic alcohol. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
