Abstract

In this paper the synthesis of a brazilin analog starting from 3-(3,4-dimethoxy-phenyl)-propionic acid is reported. The synthetic route was finished in 10 steps including intramolecular Friedel-Crafts acylation, dihydroxylation, Lombardo reaction, oxidation with hypervalent iodine compounds, semipinacol rearrangement reaction and so on.
