Abstract
DL-Standishinal (1), an aromatase inhibitor isolated from Thuja standishii, was synthesized in 15 steps from p-formylanisole via aldol reaction of 12-hydroxy-6,7-secoabieta-8,11,13-trien-6,7-dial (2). In the present study, we found that the aldol condensation of 2 proceeded in excellent yield with the protonic catalyst such as d-camphorsulfonic acid in CH(2)Cl(2). Moreover, structure-activity relationship of 1 and its related compounds was studied and it was revealed that the isomers having cis-configuration on the A/B-ring generally exhibited more potent inhibitory activities against aromatase than those with trans-configuration.Entities:
