, p. 400 - 416 (2012/02/15)
The full details of our enantioselective formal synthesis of the biologically active natural product berkelic acid are described. The insertion of the C-18 methyl group proved challenging, with three different approaches investigated to install the correc
An Enantioselective formal synthesis of berkelic acid

An enantioselective formal synthesis of berkelic acid is described. The key step involves a late-stage silyl enol ether addition to a benzannulated oxonium ion with subsequent spiroketalization leading to construction ofthe tetracyclic core. Thermodynamic
A diastereoselective formal synthesis of berkelic acid

A formal synthesis of berkelic acid is reported. The strategy employs the combination of a chiral exocyclic enol ether and an achiral isochromanone to afford the chroman spiroketal core via a base-triggered generation and cycloaddition of an o-quinone met
