Furoguaiaoxidin—a new enedione lignan of Guaiacum officinale L: a novel method of sequential introduction of alkoxy functions in the 3- and 4-methyl groups of 2,5-diaryl-3,4-dimethylfurans
Abstract
Thestructure of furoguaiaoxidin, a new enedione lignan of Guaiacum officinale has been elucidated and a novel method of sequential introduction of alkoxy functions in the 3- and 4-methyl groups of 2,5-diaryl-3,4-dimethylfurans is described.
