Synthesis of the reported structure of herbolide I and its C-11 epimer from artemisin
摘要:
Artemisin (1) was converted into 12 (the reported structure for herbolide I) and its C-11 epimer 19 via a synthetic pathway involving a functionality transfer from C-8 to C-9 and an A-ring refunctionalization. The H-1 and C-13 NMR data of synthetic products 12 and 19 reveal that the assigned structure of the natural herbolide I is erroneous.
