Abstract

Full details of the development of reaction conditions for implementation of an activated Ullmann condensation reaction that may be conducted without amino acid racemization and that have proven suitable for incorporation of the selectively protected catechol of functionalized L-Dopa derivatives are described. The application of this procedure in the total synthesis of L, L-iscdityrosine (15), K-13 (I), and OF4949-III/OF4949-IV (4/5) is ...
