Abstract
One stereocenter makes all the difference: The synthesis and biological evaluation of 17-epi-cortistatin A is reported from a common intermediate used to procure natural cortistatin A. The synthesis features a unique stereocontrolled Raney-Ni reduction process that can be employed to reliably produce both alpha- and beta-configured D-ring aryl steroids. Biological evaluations of these "cortalogs" are reported for the first time.Entities:
