| Research Abstract |
The directed lithiation reaction of tertiary benzamide derivatives has been developed into a significant method for the regiospecific construction of polysubstituted aromatics. In this research, the usefullness of the directed lithiation strategy was demonstrated in the synthesis of WS-5995 A methylether.
WS-5995 A was isolated from streptomyces auranticolor in 1980, and it protected chickens from infection with Eimeria tenella. Its structure was elucidated as 5H-benzo[d]naphtho[2,3-b]pyran derivatives. For the synthesis of WS-5995 A and the related compounds, ortho-toluamides and homophthalic acid anhydrideswere selected as the starting materials. WS-5995 A methylether was synthesized in 5 steps via 2-aryl-1,3-naphthol derivatives which were obtained by the formal insersion reaction of ortho-toluamide anions into homophthalic acid anhydrides as the key reaction.
