A stereodivergent C-glycosidation of carbohydrate-derived lactones can be mediated by the protecting groups and applied to the total synthesis of (+)-varitriol and of two diastereoisomers thereof, which represent an unprecedent use of the protecting groups in the synthesis of a naturally occurring compound. In particular, the stereoselective nucleophile attack for 2,3-trans-substituted five-membered ring oxocarbenium ions is strongly influenced by the presence of aromatic rings in the protecting groups. According to quantum chemical calculations, the stereoselectvity depends on the π-π interactions between the aromatic ring of the C-2 protecting group with the exocyclic triple bond and the oxocarbenium ion. These interactions account for the stabilization of the conformer in which the C-2 and C-3 substituents adopt pseudoaxial orientations. When protecting groups do not contain an aromatic ring, the sterochemical outcome is dictated by stereoelectronic factors established by the Woerpel's model. Based on these findings, a concise total synthesis of the natural product (+)-varitriol and of two diastereoisomers was acomplished.

The first stereoselective total synthesis of varioxirane was accomplished, and the proposed biosynthetic pathway was supported by converting varioxirane to (+)-varitriol. The first total synthesis of enantiomer of the proposed biosynthetic precursor, (1E,3S,4R,5E)-1-(2-(hydroxymethyl)-3-methoxyphenyl) hepta-1,5-diene-3,4-diol, was also achieved by utilizing the unreacted allylic alcohol obtained during the Sharpless kinetic resolution step. Other key steps include the Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons reaction and the diastereoselective reduction of α,β-unsaturated ketone to its corresponding alcohol.

The total synthesis of natural (+)-varitriol (1) was accomplished by starting from dimethyl L-tartrate. The key features were a substrate selective and diastereoselective PdII-catalysed bicyclisation of unsaturated protected triol 9 followed by regioselective ring-opening of bicyclic skeleton 10. The absolute configuration of the target was confirmed by single-crystal X-ray analysis for the first time.
