Abstract

The first total synthesis of the phytotoxins cichorine and zinnimidine is described. The synthetic tactics involve the sequential connection of the dense and diverse functionalities on the aromatic nucleus followed by a Parham cyclization process, giving rise to the lactam unit embedded in the title compound framework.
