✦ Synopsis
Abstract
The octahydroisoindolone moiety related to proxiphomin (1) has been synthesized by condensation of N‐benzyloxycarbonyl‐protected D, L‐phenylalaninal (7) with methyl‐(4‐methyl‐sorbyl)‐malonate (11) to yield the branched ethylene derivative 12. Consecutive intramolecular [2+4]‐cycloaddition and lactam ring closure of 12 gave the desired octahydroisoindolone derivative 15, possessing adaptable functional groups for the attachment of the macrocyclic ring system.
