Abstract
[reaction: see text] A highly stereoselective intramolecular cycloaddition of an indole tethered to an aza-ortho-xylylene intermediate effects the rapid construction of a substantial portion of the ring system of the cytotoxic natural product communesin B. An analogous cycloaddition involving an ortho-quinone methide intermediate provides an adduct that clearly revealed that the structural assignment for nomofungin was in error.Entities:
