Cytochalasan synthesis: An alternative approach to cytochalasin H
Sauter, Robert,Thomas, Eric J.,Watts, John P.
, p. 519 - 523 (2007/10/02)
The oxo ester (8), from the thiazolium salt catalysed conjugate addition of (S)-citronellal to ethyl acrylate, has been used in a synthesis of the cytochalasa-1,18,21 -trione (3). This reacts both regio- and stereo-selectively with methylmagnesium chloride to provide the cytochalasin H precursor (4).
Cytochalasan Synthesis: Synthesis of an -Membered Ring Precursor of Cytochalasin H
Thomas, Eric J.,Whitehead, John W. F.

The cytochalasin H precursor (20) has been synthesized using an intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction to control stereochemistry and to form the 11-membered ring.
