A new synthesis method of (±) -deoxyschizandrin

The natural product deoxyschizandrin has been shown to have a wide range of biological activities. In recent years the therapeutic potential of this compound against cancers has attracted significant interest. Herein we describe a concise de novo total synthesis of deoxyschizandrin based around a double organocuprate oxidation strategy. In addition, we present the results of biological studies exploring the ability of deoxyschizandrin and synthetic precursors lacking the medium ring biaryl unit to inhibit the proliferation of a human cancer cell line. These studies led to the identification of a structurally novel agent with in vitro anticancer activity.
