The Development of a Direct Synthetic Route to Pleurotin

Abstract
An intermediate (6-hydroxy-7,10-dimethoxy-2a,5,5a,6,10b,10c-hexahydro-2H-anthra[9,1-bc]furan-2-one) for the synthesis of pleurotin was prepared from 2,5-dimethoxybenzyl alcohol. The key step was a tandem photoenolization/Diels-Alder reaction.
