22. Experimental details: Synthesis of compound 11: A solution of 2,3-
dihydroxybenzaldehyde (276.2 mg, 2 mmol), potassium trans-styryl-
trifluoroborate (420 mg, 2 mmol), was added with dibenzylamine
(82 mg, 20 mol %) in anhydrous DMF (10 mL). The reaction mixture
was heated at 80 °C overnight. The reaction mixture was quenched
with aqueous saturated NH4Cl (8 mL), extracted with CH2Cl2
(10 mL Â 3), and combined organic layers were washed with water
(10 mL Â 3). The water layer was extracted with CH2Cl2 (5 mL Â 2).
The combined organic layers were dried with Na2SO4, and evapo-
rated. The residue was purified by flash column chromatography
using hexane–ethyl acetate (98:2) as the eluent to give a yellow solid,
242.2 mg (54.0%). 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3): d 7.50–7.39 (m, 5H),
