Research Abstract |
Ladder-shaped polyethers are mainly marine toxins produced by dinoflagellates. The objective of this research was to clarify how the ladder-shaped polyethers work in our bodies to exert their toxicity. In the synthetic studies of natural products, basic parts (building blocks) are first synthesized and a target molecule will be built up using these parts. However, in this research, we faced difficulties in synthesizing a large quantity of parts by traditional methods. Therefore, novel recipe was established to supply enough building blocks successfully. This result will drastically accelerate the building-up works, being challenged all over the world.
