(+/-)-Daunomycinone and (+/-)-4-demethoxydaunomycinone have been synthesized via two successive Diels-Alder reactions from naphthazarin. Key steps for the construction of the A-ring of the anthracyclinone are the Diels-Alder reaction of the BCD fragments

The development of a general strategy for the control of regiochemistry in the Diels-Alder reactions of substituted naphthazarins is described.Application of this strategy to the synthesis of (+/-)-daunomycinone (2) employs two successive regiochemically controlled Diels-Alder reactions and leads to a ten-step, regiospecific synthesis of (+/-)-2 in 36percent overall yield (Scheme 4).
