Ak. Pathak et al., DEEPOXIDATION OF ARTEANNUIN-B WITH CHLOROTRIMETHYLSILANE AND SODIUM-IODIDE, Journal of natural products, 57(12), 1994, pp. 1708-1710
The deepoxidation of arteannuin B [1] with chlorotrimethylsilane and s
odium iodide resulted in 6 alpha-hydroxyisoannulide [2] which was also
isolated from Artemisia annua. Lithium borohydride reduction of artea
nnuin B [1] gave a mixture of compound 2 and a dihydro compound [3].
