Abstract

A series of new, N-substituted azapodophyllotoxin derivatives were synthesized via a three-component reaction of an aldehyde, an enaminone and tetronic acid in glacial acetic acid, under microwave irradiation, without a catalyst. This new protocol has the advantages of shorter time, higher yields, lower cost and broader substrate scope, as well as easier operation.
