Kc. Nicolaou et al., A SUZUKI COUPLING-MACROLACTAMIZATION APPROACH TO THE AB-COD BICYCLIC SYSTEM OF VANCOMYCIN, Chemical communications, (19), 1997, pp. 1899-1900
The effectiveness of the Suzuki coupling reaction in the formation of
the AB biaryl moiety and the beneficial role of a preexisting COD ring
system in a lactamization approach to the AB-COD ring system of vanco
mycin is demonstrated.
