Journal ArticleDOI
Methoxymethyl-directed aryl metalation. Total synthesis of (.+-.)-averufin
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis of averufin and its role in aflatoxin B1 biosynthesis
TL;DR: In this paper, two total syntheses of (±)-averufin are described, proceeding through a common intermediate and predicated on the efficient introduction of isotopic label(s) at side-chain and nuclear sites for the purpose of biosynthetic investigations of aflatoxin B1(8).

Bisfuran formation in aflatoxin biosynthesis: the role of versiconal acetate
Journal ArticleDOI
Reaction Models of the Oxidative Rearrangement of Averufin to 1'- Hydroxyversicolorone: The First Step in Dihydrobisfuran Formation in Aflatoxin Biosynthesis
TL;DR: In this paper, the formation of the dihydrobisfuran ring system uniquely representative of the aflatoxins among polyketide natural products is achieved in three net oxidative steps relating averufin (2) to versicolorin A (5).
Journal ArticleDOI
A cationic model of the chain-branching step in aflatoxin biosynthesis
TL;DR: Les mesylates-2' de di-O-methyl-6,8 nidurufine et des modeles benzenoides simples de ces composes sont traites dans le trifluoro 2,2,2 ethanol pour donner des produits furannoides interessants pour la biosynthese de l'aflatoxine B 1 1
