Synthesis of MPs. Most of the MPs, except MP1 and MP12, were synthesized by following the procedure as described previously (Mangnus et al., 1992a). (A) Synthesis of MP3, (E)-methyl 3-(4-methyl-5-oxo-2,5-dihydrofuran-2-yloxy)-2-phenylacrylate. (B) Synthesis of MP1, (E)-methyl 3-(4-methyl-5-oxo-2,5-dihydrofuran-2-yloxy)-2-(4-nitrophenyl)acrylate. (C) Synthesis of MP12, (E)-3-(4-methyl-5-oxo-2,5-dihydrofuran-2-yloxy)-2-(4-nitrophenyl)acrylaldehyde.
