Ap. Kozikowski et al., A PALLADIUM-CATALYZED ROUTE TO A BENZOFURAN ANALOG OF INDOLACTAM-V (ILV) - EFFECTS ON PKC ISOTYPE SELECTIVITY, Pure and applied chemistry, 66(10-11), 1994, pp. 2087-2090
A novel palladium catalyzed synthesis of the benzofuran analogue 11 of
n-hexyl-ILV and details of its isoform selectivity are described. Of
considerable interest is the unexpected finding that this subtle struc
tural change leads to a compound that is more like phorbol 12,13-dibut
yrate (PDBu) and less like n-octyl-ILV in its pattern of activity.
