Endo, Atsushi,Kann, Toshiyuki,Fukuyama, Tohru
, p. 1103 - 1105 (2007/10/03)
During the course of synthetic study on ecteinascidin 743 (1), key intermediate 5 was prepared. Stereocontrolled synthesis of 5 from D-glucose was accomplished using incorporation of two nitrogen atoms and stereoselective addition of a phenol to an imine
