- Total synthesis of tetracyclic kynurenic acid analogues isolated from chestnut honey
-
A short and efficient synthesis of novel tetracyclic Kynurenic acid analogues, isolated from chestnut honey, is described. The crucial step of the strategy was a MW-assisted cyclization of enamines of ethyl dioxohexahydropyrrolizine and 2,3-dioxooctahydroindolizine carboxylates to obtain 2,3,6,11b-tetrahydro-1H-pyrrolizino[2,1-b]quinoline-5,11-dione and 5,8,91,011,11a-hexahydroindolizino[2,1-b]quinoline-6,12-dione, respectively. Because of its modular nature, the synthetic strategy can have value as a general method for the preparation of compounds containing these new heterocyclic scaffolds.
