We describe a concise synthesis of (+)-isoaltholactone via a Au-catalysed cyclisation of a monoallylic diol to form the tetrahydrofuranyl ring. Analogous cyclisations show that the stereochemical outcome is dictated by the stereochemistry of the diol substrate.

A related series of styryllactones with small functional and stereochemical variations were compiled for a comparative study of their apoptotic activities toward two tumorigenic and one non-tumorigenic control cell line. While a substantial range of intrinsic activity was observed, the

The Journal of organic chemistry, 73(1), 2-11 (2007-05-26)
Stereoselective total synthesis of biologically active styryllactones 7-epi-goniofufurone, goniofufurone, goniopypyrone, goniotriol, altholactone, and etharvensin was achieved in high overall yields from a common intermediate derived from d-(-)-tartaric acid. It is based on the utility of a masked tetrol, comprising an
Dieter Enders et al.
Chemistry (Weinheim an der Bergstrasse, Germany), 14(9), 2842-2849 (2008-01-26)
The asymmetric total synthesis of (+)-altholactone (1), a member of the styryllactone family of natural products displaying cytotoxic and antitumor activities, is described. Key steps include a RAMP-hydrazone alpha-alkylation (RAMP=(R)-1-amino-2-methoxymethylpyrrolidine) of 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxan-5-one, a boron-mediated aldol reaction, a six- to five-membered

Phytotherapy research : PTR, 26(6), 926-931 (2011-11-23)
Resistance of colorectal cancer (CRC) to the available chemotherapy reveals the demand for identification of new anticancer agents. We evaluated the antitumour potential of altholactone, a naturally occurring bioactive compound isolated from Goniothalamus spp. (Annonaceae) hooks, against CRC cells. Antitumour
