A short and scalable synthesis of naamidine A, a marine alkaloid with a selective ability to inhibit epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-dependent cellular proliferation, has been achieved. A key achievement in this synthesis was the development of a regioselective hydroamination of a monoprotected propargylguanidine to deliver N(3)-protected cyclic ene-guanidines. This permits the extension of this methodology to prepare N(2)-acyl analogues in a fashion that obviates the troublesome acylati ...[more]
