Abstract

A facile entry to 1,4-dioxygenated xanthones having a variety of substitution patterns and substituents was developed that features a novel application of the Moore cyclization using substrates that were readily assembled in a highly convergent fashion by an acetylide stitching process. The practical utility of the methodology was demonstrated by an efficient synthesis of a naturally occurring xanthone and correction of the structure of dulcisxanthone C.
