We decided to follow the so-called "collective total synthesis" approach to synthesize several structurally different molecules from a common intermediate possessing appropriate stereochemistry and functionalities. As the common precursor for the efficient preparation of these bioactive molecules, we chose (+)-3,4-dihydro-γ-ionone (1), a natural compound present in minor quantities in ambergris and in the plant Bellardia trixago. Thus, we report herein the enantioselective synthesis of siccanochromene F (2), metachromins U (3) and V (4), and bicyclic squalene derivative 5 as well as the formal syntheses of ambrein (6), phenazinomycin (7), and (-)-siccanin (8).
