Holler, Tod P.,Ruan, Fuqiang,Spaltenstein, Andreas,Hopkins, Paul B.
, p. 4570 - 4575 (2007/10/02)
Syntheses of ovothiols A and C in optically active form and ovothiols A and B in racemic form are reported.In all cases, synthesis of an S-protected mercaptoimidazole is followed by elaboration of an amino acid side chain.
A New Synthesis of 4- and 5-Imidazolethiols
Spaltenstein, Andreas,Holler, Tod P.,Hopkins, Paul B.
, p. 2977 - 2979 (2007/10/02)
Several examples of a new, mild, and regiocontrolled multistep synthesis of multiply substituted 4- and 5-imidazolethiols are reported.The key step involves a dehydration/cyclization promoted by trimethylsilyl triflate and triethylamine
