AI Article Synopsis

  • A new and easy method for creating C-ring substituted luotonins and vasicinones has been developed using a special acid to facilitate a specific chemical reaction called aza-Nazarov cyclization.
  • This reaction involves compounds known as quinazolinonyl enones and is influenced by the presence of protons in the reaction environment.
  • The way the cyclization occurs, meaning which parts of the molecules are affected, relies heavily on how many protons are available during the process.

Article Abstract

A facile synthesis of C-ring substituted luotonins and vasicinones has been realized via a super-acid-mediated aza-Nazarov cyclization of quinazolinonyl enones. The regioselectivity of the cyclization is highly dependent on proton availability in the reaction medium.
