研究室セミナー & 先々週・先週・今週の輪読

三週間ほどブログの更新をさぼってしまいました.7/10 の研究室セミナーの文献紹介の担当は四年生の五十嵐さんで,紹介した論文は Bon, D. J.-Y. D., Banwell, M. G., Ward, J. S. & Willis, A. C. From toluene to triquinanes: formal total syntheses of the sesquiterpenoid natural products (−)-hypnophilin and (−)-coriolin. Tetrahedron 69, 1363-1368 (2013) でした.抗トリパノソーマ活性などを有する triquinane 型セスキテルペン化合物の形式的全合成についての論文です.前期の研究室セミナーでの文献紹介はこれで終了し,後期は 10 月から再開です.

先々週から今週にかけての輪読では下記の論文を取り上げました.
