Abstract
L,6,8-Trimethoxy-3-hydroxymethyl-2-naphthoic acid lactone was synthesized from benzoic acid in 21 steps. This lactone was completely identical with authentic dimethyl [alpha]-sorigenin, obtained by the methylation of natural [alpha]-sorigenin. Herewith the structure of [alpha]-sorigenin was confirmed to be l,8-dihydroxy-6-methoxy-3-hydroxymethyl-2-naphthoic acid lactone.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
