  • Title: Exceedingly Concise and Elegant Synthesis of (+)-Paniculatine, (-)-Magellanine, and (+)-Magellaninone.

    Journal: Org Lett; 2015 Aug 07; 17(15):3938-40. PubMed ID: 26207328.
    Abstract:
    Starting from inexpensive (+)-pulegone as the chiral building block, a highly convergent synthesis of the unusual diquinane-based structures of (+)-paniculatine (1), (-)-magellanine (2), and (+)-magellaninone (3), has been achieved. This approach is based upon a tandem acylation-alkylation of ketoester 8 and palladium-catalyzed olefin insertion, oxidation, and hydrogenation for construction of the tetracyclic framework. This exceedingly concise strategy, requiring only 12-14 steps, is the shortest to date.
