Abstract
A one-step synthesis of pyrrolo[1,4]benzodiazepine dilactams has been developed. The high yielding method involves direct coupling of unprotected anthranilic acids with proline esters. This transformation was successfully applied in the first total syntheses of boseongazepines B and C as well as oxoprothracarcin and limazepine E
