Abstract
A formal synthetic route to hamigeran B, an antiviral marine natural product with a unique tricyclic molecular architecture, has been developed. The key chemical transformations in the present route include a novel zinc(II)porphyrin-catalyzed photoredox radical cascade cyclization to access a functionalized tetralin, a catalyst-free benzylic radical bromination with NBS by visible-light irradiation, and a samarium(II)-induced cyclization of brominated tetralone possibly via an orthoquinodimethane-like intermediate.
