, p. 4997 - 4998 (2008/12/21)
The sesquiterpene (+)-hernandulcin has been enantiospecifically synthesized starting from (-)-neoisopulegol in seven steps and in 25% overall yield.

A facile total synthesis of (+)-hernandulcin (1) was accomplished from (-)-isopulegol in 6 steps with 15% overall yield. Epoxidation of (-)-isopulegol with m-chloroperbenzoic acid followed by opening of the epoxide 3a with prenyl Grignard afforded the tertiary alcohol 4a with correct C-6 and C-1′ stereochemistry as a major product. Oxidation of the secondary alcohol in compound 4a to the ketone 5a was accomplished in high yield by using TPAP and N-methylmorpholine N-oxide. Conversion of the ketone 5a to α,β -unsaturated ketone via organoselenium intermediate gave (+)-hernandulcin (1). This method was also successfully applied to the synthesis of (+)-epihernandulcin (2).

(+)-Hernandulcin 1, an extremely sweet bisabolane-type sesquiterpene, and (+)-epihernandulcin 2 were synthesized in six steps from (-)-isopulegol with 15 and 11 percent overall yields, respectively.
