Stereocontrolled total synthesis of an annonacin A-type acetogenin: Pseudoannonacin A?
Hanessian, Stephen,Grillo, Teresa Abad
, p. 1049 - 1057 (1998)
A stereocontrolled first total synthesis of a diastereomer of the presumed mono-tetrahydrofuran type acetogenin annonacin A, starting with enantiomerically pure precursors, is described. The absolute stereochemistry of the C15-C20 segment corresponding to the tetrahydrofuran ring of the natural product was secured by X-ray crystal structure analysis of an advanced intermediate. The synthetic product (a mixture of epimers at C10) had spectroscopic data identical to that of the natural product, but a different optical rotation.
