The stereoselective synthesis of the non-lactonic part of the natural G2 checkpoint inhibitor, (Z)-cryptofolione, has been accomplished. Butane-1,4-diol was used as the starting material, and the stereogenic centers were generated through L-proline-catalyzed α-aminoxylation and Maruoka asymmetric allylation. We attempted to convert this non-lactonic moiety to (Z)-cryptofolione via olefin cross-metathesis reaction, but by this approach another naturally occurring lactonic compound, goniothalamin, was obtained.

The stereoselective total synthesis of two naturally occurring α-pyrone derivatives (+)-cryptofolione and (+)-goniothalamin has been accomplished via a common intermediate. The synthetic sequence involves the asymmetric reduction of a propargyl ketone and olefin cross-metathesis as the key reactions.
