Abstract:
The parallel solution-phase synthesis of two libraries of product-like compounds derived from a 1-aryltetralin privileged structure is described. The N-aryl picropodophyllone γ-lactams were synthesized from methyl ester thuriferic acid via InCl3-tandem aza-Michael addition-cyclization reaction of anilines. Bromo-aryl compounds from this library were subjected to a ligandless palladium Suzuki cross-coupling to give the expected N-biaryl picropodophyllin γ-lactams.
