A facile total synthesis of (±)-nimbiol 1 has been achieved. In order to decrease the dioxo byproduct 2a, an improved oxidation system of CrO3/H2O/HOAc/NaOAc was used.

An efficient general method has been developed for the synthesis of the tricyclic aromatic ketones 4, 12, 13 and 14 from the 1-methoxynaphthalenes 8, 9, 10 and 11 respectively. The transformations of the ketones 4, 12, 13 and 14 into the diterpene ethers (±)-sempervirol methyl ether (7), (±)-sugiol methyl ether (15), (±)-nimbiol methyl ether (16), and (±)-nimbidiol dimethyl ether (17) have been successfully accomplished involving reductive methylation in liquid ammonia as the key reaction.
INFLUENCE OF METHOXY- AND METHYL-AROMATIC SUBSTITUENS ON STEREOCHEMISTRY OF THE PRODUCTS IN THE ACID-CATALIZED CYCLIZATION OF 2-(2-ARYLETHYL)-1,3,3-TRIMETHYLCYCLOHEXANOLS: STEREOCONTROLLED TOTAL SYNTHESIS OF (+/-)- NIMBIDIOL AND (+/-)-NIMBIOL

The distributions of the trans- and the cis-podocarpatrienes (5c-g) and (6c-g) in the cyclialkylation reaction of the easily accesible cyclohexanols (4c-g) under a mild condition have been investigated.The cyclohexanol precursors having unactivated aromatic ring proceeds with high stereoselectivity leading to the respective trans-products, while the substrates with an electron donating methoxy or a methyl substituent with respect to the site of electrophilic attack result in the corresponding cis- and the trans-product mixtures.Consistent mechanisms for these stereochemical results have been advanced.Based on these results simple synthesis of the modified diterpenes (+/-)-nimbidiol (7) and (+/-)-nimbiolmethylether (18) have been realized.
