Hibino's group has reported the synthesis of demethyllavendamycin methyl ester (C) in Hibino et al., Heterocycles, 20, 1957 (1983). Hibino's group synthesized demethyllavendamycin methyl ester by a Pictet-Spengler type cyclization of 8-benzyloxyquinoline-2-aldehyde with tryptophan methyl ester, followed by aromatization and hydrogenation to give an 8-hydroxyquinoline intermediate. This intermediate was brominated to give the 5,7-dibromo-8-hydroxyquinoline. Oxidation of the 5,7-dibromo-8-hydroxyquinoline yielded the 7-bromoquinolinequinone, and replacement of the bromine with sodium azide, followed by reduction of the azide with sodium hydrosulfite, yielded demethyllavendamycin methyl ester.
