The ratio of 2 to 4is 1:5. The key step is the highly regioselective formation of the B--homo-7-oxa-lactone ringby oxidation of an enol silyl ether with 3--chloro-peroxybenzoic acid.展开更多

Recently rapid progress in studieson expression of ICAM-1 in patients withhepatocellular carcinoma ( HCC ) have beenachieved, including clinical and experimentalresearches[23-31].展开更多
