First Syntheses of Lorneic Acids A and B with Potential PDE5 Inhibition Activity

Two natural products with potential PDE5 inhibition activity, lorneic acids A and B, have been synthesized for the first time in high yield using a chiral amide stereocontrolled addition of aryl lithium to aldehyde as the key step, and the configuration of the chiral benzylic alcohol in lorneic acid...

Summary:Two natural products with potential PDE5 inhibition activity, lorneic acids A and B, have been synthesized for the first time in high yield using a chiral amide stereocontrolled addition of aryl lithium to aldehyde as the key step, and the configuration of the chiral benzylic alcohol in lorneic acid B was determined to be S.
