Abstract

Starting with inexpensive reagents, a self-directed chemical process with the aid of a single metal triflate was readily achieved to concomitantly construct quinazoline and pyrroloquinoline cores to afford the synthesis of luotonin A and its analogues. Among all compounds prepared, 2c, 2d, and 3b exhibit more potent inhibitory activity than luotonin A against human topoisomerase I.(Figure Presented)
