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.
