Popis: | The unexpected discovery of an eliminative deprotection and cyclodimerization cascade reaction sequence led to the preparation of a series of perhydrodibenzofuranones that bear a structural resemblance to the natural product incarviditone. One of the novel dimers was found to show significant antiproliferative activity towards a non-small-cell lung cancer cell line, and represents a useful lead compound for the discovery of more potent anti-cancer agents. |
