β¦ Synopsis
Total syntheses of the title compounds, the simplest and the hitherto unknown novel nogalamycin congeners, were first accomplished by elaborating the CDEF-ring system (2) from the methyl ketone (5) and subjecting 2 to regioselective Diels-Alder reaction with the bistrimethylsilyl keteneacetal (2_). Nogalamycin (1) and its congeners are notable members of the anthracycline family because of their unique structures and prominent antitumor activities. Especially, 7-con-O-methylnogarol (2) which can be chemically derived from 1, has been reported to exhibit more promising anticancer activity than the parent compound (l_).' j_: x=0
