Total Synthesis of ( ‒ )-Colombiasin A and ( ‒ )-Elisapterosin B by two different approaches A presentation by Guillaume Pelletier April 27 th 2012
Structural and biological analysis These molecules are additions to the family of diterpenes from the gorgonian octacoral Pseudopterogorgia elisabethae (isolated by Rodriguez et al. in early 2000) Possess potential antiplasmodial activity against plasmodium falciparum, the parasite responsible for the most severe forms of malaria and is an in vitro inhibitor of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rb Total synthesis by many groups : Harrowven (2005, ■ and ■ ), Nicolaou (2001, ■), Rychnovsky (2003, ■ and ■), Rawal (2003, ■ ), Davies (2006, ■ ), Jacobsen and Boezio, A.
