An access to chiral β-benzyl-γ-butyrolactones and its application to the synthesis of enantiopure (+)-secoisolariciresinol, (-)-secoisolariciresinol, and (-)-enterolactone

Both enantiomers of secoisolariciresinol and enantiopure (-)-enterolactone were synthesized through a highly stereoselective convergent synthesis. An Evans diastereoselective alkylation followed by a substrate-induced diastereoselective -alkylation of the newly formed optically active β-benzyl-γ- butyrolactone gave the β-β′ linkage of the target skeleton. The (S,S)- and (R,R)-enantiomers of secoisolariciresinol and (-)-enterolactone were obtained in 12-14% (11 steps) and 20% (7 steps) overall yield, respectively.

A novel approach towards dibenzylbutyrolactone lignans involving heck and radical reactions: Application to (±)-matairesinol synthesis

A highly regio- and stereoselective Heck reaction of iodoarenes with vinylated malonates, generated in situ by fluoride-induced protiodesilylation of alkenylsilanols/disiloxanes to give functionalized styrenes and 1,4-diaryl-1-butenes has been developed. The dibenzylbutyrolactone lignan skeletons have been achieved from 1,4-diaryl-1-butenes by two routes involving diastereoselective radical cyclization as the key step. This strategy has successfully been applied in the synthesis of (±)-matairesinol. Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 2007.
TOTAL SYNTHESES OF (-)-TRACHELOGENIN, (-)-NORTRACHELOGENIN AND (+)-WIKSTROMOL

The title compounds were obtained by α-hydroxylation of the corresponding α,β-dibenzyl-γ-butyrolactones (lignans of synthetic origin), and were correlated to (+/-)-methyltrachelogenin 9 whose relative structure was definitely established by X-ray cristallography. (-)-Trachelogenin 1 and (-)-nortrachelogenin 12 thus have the (8S,8'S) absolute configuration, whereas (+)-nortrachelogenin 20 (or wikstromol) has the (8R,8'R) absolute configuration.
