Outline of Final Research Achievements

Synthesis of taepeenin D, an novel inhibitor of the Hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway, was attempted. Considering the structure of taepeenin D, the synthesis commenced with easily available Wieland-Miescher ketone. First, selective functionalization at C19 methyl group was attempted as a key reaction. The reaction proceeded with high stereoselectivity. Second, short-step construction of benzofuran rings, a characteristic structure of taepeenin D, was accomplished.
