  1. The Total Synthesis of Mitomycins Bob Moreau Organic Supergroup April 25, 2007

  2. Mechanism of Action

  3. Covalent Crosslink Adduct

  4. Mitomycinoid Structures

  5. “The complexity of the problem arises from the need to accommodate highly interactive functionality in a rather compact matrix and to orchestrate the chemical progression such as to expose and maintain vulnerable structural elements as the synthesis unfolds. The synthesis of a mitomycin is the chemical equivalent of walking on egg shells.” Danishefsky, S. J.; Scheryantz, J. M. Synlett.1995, 475.
