Jw. Lee et al., SYNTHESIS OF 2 RIGID DIACYLGLYCEROL ANALOGS HAVING A PERHYDRO FURO[3,4-B]FURAN BIS-GAMMA-BUTYROLACTONE SKELETON .2., Tetrahedron letters, 34(27), 1993, pp. 4313-4316
The stereoselective synthesis of two rigid diacylglycerol analogues st
arting from L-arabinose is described. The construction of the desired
bicyclic bis-butyrolactone structure was accomplished via intramolecul
ar radical cyclization. Both compounds (3a and 3b) showed poor binding
affinity for PK-C.
