Title: Total synthesis of (+)-allocyathin B2. Author: Trost BM, Dong L, Schroeder GM. Journal: J Am Chem Soc; 2005 Mar 09; 127(9):2844-5. PubMed ID: 15740107. Abstract: The first enantioselective synthesis of (+)-allocyathin was achieved. The synthesis features a Pd-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation to install the first quaternary center, a Ru-catalyzed diastereoselective cycloisomerization to construct the six-membered ring, and a diastereoselective hydroxylative Knoevenagel reaction to introduce the final hydroxyl group. The unusual olefin isomerization of the Ru-catalyzed cycloisomerization was discussed and exploited for the synthesis.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
