Resumen:
In this paper, we report the first synthesis of aromatic analogs of brassinosteroids. In order to accomplish this task, we explored two different synthetic approaches, which involved demethylation of the C-19 of stigmasterol to yield A-ring aromatic 3-hydroxystigmastanes. One of the new aromatic analogs showed a reduced but significant bioactivity when compared to the natural hormones.
