Because of the lack of potency binding to the receptors responsible for psychoactivity, cannabidiol has received much attention as a lead compound to develop a nonpsychotropic drug. Herein, we establish a method to access not only cannabidiol but also its analogues. The key reaction is nickel-catalyzed allylation of 2-cyclohexene-1,4-diol monoacetate with a new reagent, (alkenyl)ZnCl/TMEDA, which gives a SN2-type product with 94% regioselectivity in good yield.
Synthetic Approach to the Amphilectane Diterpenes: The Use of Nitriles as Terminators of Carbocation-Olefin Cyclizations

A biomimetic approach to the synthesis of tricyclic terpenoid isonitriles from marine sponges is described which involves carbocation-olefin cyclization of polyolefinic precursors terminated by the stereoselective formation of a carbon-nitrogen bond.The k
