Abstract

The first total synthesis of integrastatin B, a potent HIV-1 integrase inhibitor, has been accomplished in seven steps with a 17.9% overall yield employing easily accessible starting compounds. The Oxone-mediated oxidative benzofuran dearomatization cascade has been employed as the key skeletal construct to forge the central tetracyclic nucleus.
