Abstract

© 2015 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim. Herein we describe a total synthesis of the natural product heraclemycinB. This synthetic approach follows a Diels-Alder strategy to form the anthracenone core followed by a β-ketosulfoxide and aldehyde annulation to form the 4-pyranone Dring. The spectral data for the synthesized product matches that reported in the isolation studies.
