Short microwave-assisted modular synthesis of naturally occurring oxygenated bibenzyls

The naturally occurring oxygenated bibenzyls lunularin and m-O-methyllunularin were prepared in a modular synthesis in four steps from two appropriate iodophenols and trimethylsilylacetylene utilizing microwaveassisted Sonogashira couplings as the crucial steps. The antimicrobial activity of the resulting natural products was evaluated in an agar diffusion assay.

Intramolecular Oxidative Coupling of Aromatic Compounds. V. para-para Diphenolic Oxidative Coupling as a Possible Route to the Eupodienone Skeleton

The synthesis of (2RS,3RS)-1,4-bis(4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxyphenyl)-2,3-dimethylbutan-1-one (9) is described.Diphenolic oxidative coupling of (9) gave the unstable dienone (24), which decomposed in methanol to give what is believed to be the acetal (26).Syn
