Donner, Christopher D.,Gill, Melvyn
, p. 3921 - 3924 (1999)
The structure and absolute stereochemistry of thysanone 3, a fungal benzoisochromanquinone with potent human rhinovirus 3C-protease inhibitory activity, is established by the total synthesis of its antipode 1 from (S)- propylene oxide.
Enantioselective synthesis of the 3C-protease inhibitor (-)-thysanone by a Staunton-Weinreb annulation strategy

The total synthesis of (-)-thysanone is described. The key step involves the addition of an o-toluate anion to a lactone to create the naphthopyran framework (Staunton-Weinreb annulation). This synthesis further confirms the absolute stereochemistry of th
