1,5-Acrylodan (1-(5-(dimethylamino)naphthalen-1-yl)prop-2-en-1-one) is prepared in six steps from 1-nitronaphthalene and 19% overall yield. The last three steps involve an aryllithium-directed nucleophilic addition, catalytic Kulinkovich cyclopropanation, and copper-catalyzed oxi...
In this study, we developed an efficient strategy for constructing thieno[3,2-b]thiophene molecules from 3-nitrothiophenes, containing carbonyl fragments at the C-2 and C-5 atoms, by nucleophilic aromatic substitution of the nitro group in these substrates. It was shown that the...
l-(+)-Furanomycin 1 is a miniature antibacterial natural product that contains an α-amino acid core. This non-proteinogenic α-amino acid was first isolated in 1967 by Katagiri and co-workers from the fermentation broth of Streptomyces threomyceticus L-803 (ATCC 15795). It is a su...
