Abstract:
In order to elucidate the structure-activity relationship of griseofulvin (1), (+/-)-6-demethyl analog (3), 2-demethoxy-6-demethyldihydro analog (4), (+/-)-dechloro-6-ethyl analog (5), (+/-)-dechloro-6-epi-ethyl analog (6), (+/-)6-ethyl analog (7) and (+/-)-6-epi-ethyl analog (8) were synthesized by a Diels-Alder cycloaddition of alkylidene ketones (16, 17 18, 19 and 20) with modified 1,3-butadienes (21 or 22). Their biological activities were examined against fungi.
