Photochemical Retrosynthetic Analysis Strategy Aids in Developing the Shortest Synthesis Route for Three Stemoamide Alkaloids

Image source: J. Am. Chem. Soc.Introduction: Recently, Professor David A. Nicewicz and his research group at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill reported a novel synthetic strategy utilizing iterative photochemical methods, providing mild reaction conditions and a straightforward synthetic procedure to achieve the total synthesis of three structurally complex stemoamide alkaloids. The key … Read more
