Hamigeran B (1): A solution of NBS (50 mg, 0.03 mmol) in CH2Cl2
(20 mL) was added dropwise over ꢀ4 h (syringe pump) to a stirred and
cooled (08C) solution of diketone 39 (80 mg, 0.028 mmol) and iPr2NH
(ca. 0.2 mL, 0.14 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (40 mL). The ice bath was removed
and the mixture was stirred for 3 h. Evaporation of the solvent and flash
chromatography of the residue over silica gel, using 7:3 CH2Cl2/toluene
gave hamigeran B (86 mg, 85%) as a yellow solid. Rf =0.36 (30% tolu-
ene/CH2Cl2); m.p: 162–1638C (lit.[1] m.p. 163–1658C;) [a]2D5:8 =À211.18 (c

[23] After completion of our work, Mehta reported a strategy similar to
ours that resulted in a synthesis of 6-epi-hamigeran B. In his intra-
molecular Heck reaction he reports a 2:1 mixture of 24 and the
simple hydrogenolysis product 32 in a total 55–60% yield but does
not report the tetrasubstituted olefin; see G. Metha, H. M. Shinde,
Tetrahedron Lett. 2003, 44, 7049–7053.
