Abstract: | The enantioselective synthesis of a dimeric pyranonaphthoquinone closely related to the cardinalins is described. Whilst attempts to effect a double Hauser-Kraus annulation of enone 5 were unsuccessful using both bis-phthalide 4 and bis-sulfone 21, a single annulation of cyanophthalide 28 with enone 5 furnished functionalised naphthalene 31. Suzuki-Miyaura homocoupling of the aryl triflate 29 derived from 31 effected a late-stage construction of the biaryl bond and facilitated access to the biaryl 3. Double stereoselective lactol reduction installed the 1,3-cis stereochemistry of the pyran rings and a final double oxidative demethylation step furnished model dimer 1, completing the enantioselective synthesis of a dimeric pyranonaphthoquinone bearing the core structure of cardinalin 3. |
