The application discloses a synthetic method of
natural product Moracin N and belongs to the technical field of
organic synthesis. The application takes an
aldehyde containing a
benzene ring as a starting
raw material, introduces an isopentenyl group on the
benzene ring through a Friedel-Crafts reaction, connects a hydroxyl
protecting group to a No. 4 position hydroxyl group of the
benzene ring to obtain an intermediate II, then uses a
phosphorus ylide reagent to prepare the intermediate II into gem-dibromo olefin to obtain an intermediate III, then under the
catalysis of a base and a
copper catalyst, the gem-dibromo vinyl group is coupled with an ortho hydroxyl group to form a
benzofuran ring to obtain an intermediate IV, then 3,5-dihydroxy
bromobenzene is introduced to the right side of the
benzofuran ring of the intermediate IV through a Suzuki-Miyaura reaction to obtain an intermediate VI, and finally the hydroxyl
protecting group of the intermediate VI is removed to obtain Moracin N. The synthetic
route of the application is simple, the reaction condition is mild, the safety is high, the required
raw material is cheap and easy to obtain, the total cost is low, and the application is suitable for industrialized preparation.
