Concise Synthesis of Naphthalene-Based 14-Aza-12-Oxasteroids by Smriti Srivastava, Jun Luo, Daniel Whalen, Katherine N. Robertson, Amitabh Jha

“…After conversion of 2-naphthols to 2-naphthylamines by the Bucherer reaction, subsequent selective C-acetylation was achieved via the Sugasawa reaction and reduction of the acetyl group using borohydride, which resulted into the corresponding amino-alcohols. The naphthalene-based amino-alcohols underwent double dehydrations and double intramolecular cyclization with oxo-acids leading to one-pot formation of a C-N bond, a C-O bond and an amide bond in tandem, to generate two additional rings completing the steroidal framework. …”
