The antiangiogenic and cytotoxic natural product pseudolaric acid A ((−)‐1) has been obtained by a 26‐step synthetic route. This enantioselective synthesis employed an intramolecular carbene cyclization cycloaddition cascade reaction as the key step to construct the carbocyclic framework. PMB=para‐methoxybenzyl.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
