Lamellarin K is a complex pyrrole natural product and member of the lamellarin family – a group of natural products known for their potent biological activities, such as, antiproliferative activity and inhibition of P-gp mediated drug efflux pumps. We herein describe the synthesis of the N-benzyl-des-D ring analogue of lamellarin K using a route that centres on an acyl-Claisen reaction to eventually prepare a highly-functionalised 1-aryl-4-methyl-1,4-diketone. Paal-Knorr pyrrole formation using this diketone undergoes auto-oxidation to give a fully-substituted 5-formyl pyrrole which was converted into the natural lactone B ring. Antiproliferative testing of the N-benzyl-des-D ring analogue gave an IC50 of 2.63 μM against the MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell line.
