Abstract
Englerin A, a guaiane sesquiterpene isolated from Phyllanthus engleri, showed highly potent and selective growth inhibitory activities against renal cancer cell lines. We synthesized the key tricyclic intermediate from commercially available 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxan-5-one via regio- and diastereoselective [4+3] cycloaddition between the formyl enol silyl ether and the disubstituted furan, in 4.8% total yield over 10 steps.Entities:
