Abstract
A four-step total synthesis of the marine pyridoacridine alkaloid demethyldeoxyamphimedine (5) is presented. With an overall yield of 6.4%, this pentacyclic compound has been synthesized by utilizing only two commercial building blocks, ethyl nicotinate and 2-iodoaniline. The final cyclization step was achieved via a directed remote ring metalation with Knochel-Hauser base (TMPMgCl·LiCl) followed by intramolecular trapping of an ester group.Entities:
