, p. 273 - 282 (2007/10/02)
Both the natural and unnatural enantiomers of polygodial, an insect antifeedant sesquiterpene of the drimane family, were synthesized starting from (S)-3-hydroxy-2,2-dimethylcyclohexanone as a single chiral source.
Synthesis of all possible stereoisomers of polygodial
Guillerm, D.,Delarue, M.,Jalali-Naini, M.,Lemaitre, P.,Lallemand, J.-Y.
, p. 1043 - 1046 (2007/10/02)
The three possible isomers of polygodial, epimers at C-9, cis and trans fused, are described.Controlled kinetic and thermodynamic epimerizations allow preparation of all stereoisomers from the same key intermediate.
EFFICIENT TOTAL SYNTHESES OF POLYGODIAL AND DRIMENIN.
Jallali-Naini, M.,Boussac, G.,Lemaitre, P.,Larcheveque, M.,Guillerm, D.,Lallemand, J-Y
, p. 2995 - 2998 (2007/10/02)
A short and stereoselective total synthesis of (+/-) polygodial and drimenin is presented.The efficiency of the synthesis is due to the easy access to intermediate diol 4 and its successful direct oxidation into polygodial.
