Total Synthesis of Homochiral Kadsurin Having the Natural Configuration

The total synthesis of kadsurin was achieved in a stereoselective manner.The stereoselective hydrogenation of the homochiral enone (12), obtained from the known tetracyclic lactone (7), afforded known ketone (13), the conversion of which into kadsurin has

THE FIRST TOTAL SYNTHESIS OF γ-SCHIZANDRIN AND GOMISIN N HAVING NATURAL CONFIGURATIONS

The total syntheses of γ-schizandrin and gomisin N were achieved in a stereoselective manner.The success of these synthesis heavily depends on the stereoselective reduction of tetracyclic lactones with magnesium in methanol.
