Enantioconvergent access to the enantiomerically pure building blocks (+)-or (-)-4-hydroxy-3-methyl-2-cyclohexenone using a chemoenzymatic process
Palombo, Elie,Audran, Gérard,Monti, Honoré
, p. 403 - 406 (2006)
A convenient chemoenzymatic enantioconvergent access to enantiomerically pure (+)- or (-)-4-hydroxy-3-methyl-2-cyclohexenone is described using a one-pot two-step kinetic resolution-stereoinversion protocol followed by hydrolysis. The key step of the sequ
A concise, stereocontrolled total synthesis of rippertenol
Snyder, Scott A.,Wespe, Daniel A.,Von Hof, J. Marian
, p. 8850 - 8853 (2011/08/04)
The first total synthesis of the unique terpene rippertenol, a molecule with dense stereochemical complexity arrayed on a compact framework largely devoid of functional groups, is described. Key elements include orchestrated and unique applications of aldol condensations, Diels-Alder chemistry, and a ring expansion to advance a chiral starting material containing a single chiral center into the final target in a concise and diastereocontrolled manner.
Straightforward enantioselective synthesis of both enantiomers of karahana lactone using a domino ring-closure sequence
Galano, Jean-Marie,Audran, Gérard,Monti, Honoré
, p. 7477 - 7481 (2007/10/03)
A straightforward enantioselective synthesis of both enantiomers of karahana lactone is described starting from enantiopure (R) or (S)-4-hydroxy-3-methyl-cyclohex-2-en-1-one. The key step of the sequence is an acid-induced domino reaction with three pathways running. Because of the first description of karahana lactone as a solid, the structure was secured by X-ray structural analysis. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.
