Enantiospecific syntheses of pseudopterosin aglycones - Part 1. Synthesis of the putative aglycone of pseudopterosin G-J via an A→AB→ABC annulation strategy

The putative aglycone of pseudopterosin G-J and its enantiomer were synthesised enantiospecifically from 2,3-dimethoxytoluene and η3-allyl cationic complexes of molybdenum and iron respectively. The A→AB→ABC annulation strategy entailed the use of allyl cations or their equivalents for the creation of the three benzylic stereogenic centres. The X-ray structure of tetrahydronaphthalene (-)-41a was determined.
