Abstract
The first total synthesis of (-)-arabilin, a Streptomyces metabolite that inhibits hormone activation of the androgen receptor, has been completed. The key step, a [1,7]-hydrogen shift, establishes the enol ether-containing skipped-tetraene substructure. This nonenzymatic pericyclic reaction is considered to be biomimetic.Entities:
