A short and efficient total synthesis of the bromotyrosine-derived alkaloid psammaplysene A.

ABSTRACT: Psammaplysene A, an inhibitor of FOXO1a-mediated nuclear export, has been synthesized by a concise and improved route from tyrosine-derived acid and amine fragments which were easily constructed using commercially available p-hydroxybenzaldehyde and tyramine as starting material, respectively. The strategy provides an efficient access of psammaplysene analogues that can be explored for potential pharmaceutical or biological activities.
