An enantioselective synthesis of the structure reported for the natural antifungal compound, (-)-crassinervic acid (1), has been achieved starting from geraniol and p-hydroxybenzoic acid. The key chirality-inducing step is a Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation of an allylic alcohol, on the basis of which the S configuration can be assigned to the (-) natural enantiomer. The discrepancies between the spectroscopic data for synthetic and natural crassinervic acid cast some doubts on the structure assigned to the natural compound. A possible revised structure is discussed.
A domino process for benzyne preparation: Dual activation of o-(trimethylsilyl)phenols by nonafluorobutanesulfonyl fluoride

Benzynes were generated from o-(trimethylsilyl)phenols using nonafluorobutanesulfonyl fluoride (NfF) by a domino process, i.e., the nonaflation of the phenolic hydroxyl group of o-(trimethylsilyl)phenols by NfF followed by the attack of the produced fluoride ion on the trimethylsilyl group. The generated benzyne immediately underwent various reactions to give polysubstituted benzenes.
