An Entry to Curcuphenol/Elvirol Core Structures via a Retro-Aldol Procedure

Curcuphenol/elvirol analogues, the naturally occurring bisabolane sesquiterpenes were prepared in six steps from alkyl α-tetralones employing an aromatization reaction of cyclic dienone precursors and olefination of the key aldehyde intermediates. The in vitro antifungal activities of 6a , 6b, 6d an...

Description
Summary:Curcuphenol/elvirol analogues, the naturally occurring bisabolane sesquiterpenes were prepared in six steps from alkyl α-tetralones employing an aromatization reaction of cyclic dienone precursors and olefination of the key aldehyde intermediates. The in vitro antifungal activities of 6a , 6b, 6d and 6g are also reported.
