Abstract
The 4′-ester analog of the disease preventative resveratrol 1 (RV), 4′-acetyl-RV 2 along with 4′-pivaloate 13 and benzoate 14 RV were synthesized. The previously developed palladium catalyzed decarbonylative Heck coupling was used to assemble the stilbene core together with 3,5-dibenzyl protected phenol intermediates that allowed for efficient coupling and deprotection using boron trifluoride etherate. Studies with Long-Evans rats were performed to establish safety, toxicity, and behavioral parameters. In addition, the Porsalt forced-swim test was used to demonstrate anti-depressant activity.
