ChemInform Abstract

Synthesis of key intermediate (VII) is based on the recently published oxidative cyclization of L-tyrosine. Preparation of aeruginosin incorporating the proposed L-leucine residue is mentioned to fail in providing the natural product. Thus, the structure of title thrombin inhibitor (VIII) is reassigned to contain a D-leucine moiety.
