Total synthesis of psammaplysenes A and B, naturally occurring inhibitors of FOXO1a nuclear export.
[reaction: see text] Two inhibitors of FOXO1a-mediated nuclear export, psammaplysenes A and B, have been synthesized by a flexible and efficient route. A common starting material, 4-iodophenol, was used to prepare both halves of these pseudosymmetric dibromotyrosine-derived metabolites.
