ABSTRACT
The synthesis of louisianin C (3), a member of a small family of 3,4,5-trisubstituted pyridyl natural products, is achieved in six steps and 11% overall yield starting from commercially available 3,5-dibromopyridine. The key step is a fluoride-induced desilylation-cyclization to afford carbinol 12.
