Expanding the aplysinospin cascade through DNA-templated [2+2] photocycloaddition

Summary: | Inspired by the unique ability of nucleic acids to template chemical transformations that are otherwise impossible in solution, we embarked on the generalisation of our DNA-templated [2+2] photo-induced homo- and heterodimerization of aplysinopsins. Our process ensures a straightforward access to cyclobutane containing natural products and analogues thereof. Most importantly, this conceptual biomimetic achievement presents interesting arguments to build a biosynthetic scenario.
We report here a general and scalable method for the synthesis of cyclobutane-containing natural products and analogues thereof
