Preparation of (–)-(7R)-7-acetyl-7-hydroxy-4,4-dimethoxy-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphthalen-1(4H)-one, a chiral AB-synthon for anthracycline synthesis

Abstract

The (–)-(R)-dienone (13) was prepared in 10 steps from the known 8-hydroxy-5-methoxy-2, 3-dihydronaphthalen-1(4H)-one (2), and the chirality at C(7) in (13) corresponds to that found at C(9) in the naturally occurring anthracyclines related to daunomycin.
