Decagram-Scale Synthesis of the Neocarzinostatin Carboxylic Acid

Neocarzinostatin carboxylic acid (2) was synthesized on a 10-g scale in 9 steps and 43% overall yield from 3,5-dimethylanisol (9) (Schemes 5, 7). The hindered bromoarene 23, reached after 3 steps, underwent a high-temperature Heck coupling with ethyl acry

Practical Synthesis of the Trisubstituted Naphthalene Carboxylic Acid from Neocarzinostatin Chromophore

Neocarzinostatin carboxylic acid (5) has been synthesized in 33% overall yield by a nine-step sequence which is operationally easy enough to be carried out by second-year chemistry students. 3,5-dimethylanisole was brominated in the para and in one benzyl
