Abstract

An unambiguous route has been developed for the synthesis of rac ventiloquinones J and E as well as their diastereoisomers, rac isoventiloquinones J and E by using a mercury(II) mediated ring closure as a key step.

Key Words

natural product synthesis - naphthopyranquinones - mercury(II)-mediated cyclizations - stereochemistry
