A short synthesis of a biphenomycin B analogue via a double Heck coupling procedure
Abstract
A biphenomycin B analogue has been prepared using the double Heck coupling of 3,3′-diiodo-4,4′-dimethoxybiphenyl and two orthogonally protected 2-amidoacrylates followed by two peptide bond forming steps for the incorporation of L-lysine as the middle amino acid residue.
