Title: Intramolecular condensation via an o-quinone methide: total synthesis of (±)-heliol. Author: Green JC, Brown ER, Pettus TR. Journal: Org Lett; 2012 Jun 15; 14(12):2929-31. PubMed ID: 22650973. Abstract: An acid-catalyzed intramolecular [4 + 2] cycloaddition of a non-natural bisabolene is reported. The key cyclocondensation was developed to access cyclic sesquiterpenes from linear phenolic precursors by generating a reactive o-quinone methide intermediate to initiate a cascade reaction. The new method was applied to the first total synthesis of (±)-heliol.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
