Synthesis of Prenylated Benzaldehydes and Their Use in the Synthesis of Analogues of Licochalcone A. -Analogues of licochalcone A, which are used for the exploration of the pharmacophoric elements that are essential for the antibacterial activity, are prepared by using a generally applicable synthesis of prenylated aromatic compounds, as exemplified by prenylated benzaldehydes such as (XI). The hydroxy group in the A-ring is essential for activity whereas the hydroxy group in the B-ring has no influence on the antibacterial effect of licochalcone A. Moreover, the prenyl group of the B-ring can be replaced by other lipophilic long-chained aliphatic substituents, cf.
(XIV). The Claisen-Schmidt condensation of acetophenone (XII) with (XI) provides the best results when the hydroxyacetophenone is protected as the tetrahydropyranyl ether (XII), yielding chalcone (XIII).
