摘要
Chaetomellic adds are alkyl dicarboxylic acids, isolated from Chaetomella acutiseta and are potent and highly specific farnesyl-pyrophosphate (FPP) mimic inhibitors of Ras farnesyl-protein transferase. The first efficient and biogenetic type total synthesis of chaetomellic acid A has been described herein.
