Total synthesis of anthocyanidins via Heck reaction.
Anthocyanidin moiety was obtained by cyclization of a 2-hydroxychalcone prepared by the Heck approach to the synthesis of flavonoids. 1-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-prop-2-en-1-one has been used as a coupling partner along with o-acetoxyiodobenzene in the Heck reaction.
