Synthesis of (+)-coronarin E

The labdane-type diterpenoid (+)-coronatin E (5) has been synthesized in 7 steps from (-)-sclareol (1) for the first time.

Synthesis from norambreinolide, structure, and antimicrobial activity of dihomodrimane sesquiterpenoids with azine, hydrazide, and dihydrazide fragments

12,12'-Azino-di-8α-hydroxy-11-dihomodrimane, N,N’-di-(8α-hydroxy-11-dihomodrim-12-ylidene)-adipic acid dihydrazide, N,N’-di-(Δ8,13-bicyclohomofarnesenoyl)-hydrazine, and hydrazides of Δ8,9- and Δ8,13-bicyclohomofarnesenoic

Lewis Acid-Catalyzed Stereoselective α-Addition of Chiral Aldehydes to Cyclic Dienol Silanes: Aqueous Synthesis of Chiral Butenolides

The stereoselective α-addition to cyclic dienol silanes has rarely been exploited, in contrast to the well-studied γ-addition of conjugated butenolides. In this study, an unprecedent catalytic Mukaiyama aldol α-addition of 2-trimetylsiloxy furan to optically pure aldehydes in water-containing solvents is reported. The synthetic utility of this concept was demonstrated in the efficient synthesis of six bioactive natural products: vitexolide D, curcucomosin C, villosin, chinensine C, (+)-coronarin E and (E)-labda-7,11,13-trien-16,15-olid.

Enantioselective access to (-)-Ambrox starting from β-farnesene

Starting from inexpensive (E)-β-farnesene (1), an eight-step enantioselective synthesis of the olfactively precious Ambrox ((-)-2a) has been performed. The crucial step is the catalytic asymmetric isomerization of (2E,6E)-N,N-diethylfarnesylamine (3) to t

Bioactive compounds with added value prepared from terpenes contained in solid wastes from the olive oil industry

Starting from solid wastes from two-phase olive-oil extraction, the pentacyclic triterpenes oleanolic acid and maslinic acid were isolated. These natural compounds were transformed into methyl olean-12-en-28-oate (5), which then was transformed into several seco-C-ring triterpene compounds by chemical and photolytic modifications. The triene seco-products were fragmented through several oxidative procedures to produce, simultaneously, cis- and trans-decalin derivatives, both potential synthons for bioactive compounds. The chemical behavior of the isolated fragments was investigated, and a suitable approach to several low-molecular-weight terpenes was performed. These are interesting processes for the value-addition to solid waste from the olive-oil industry.

Spiroperoxy lactones from furans in one pot: Synthesis of (+)-premnalane A

A [4+2]-cycloaddition between singlet oxygen and a furan, followed by an ene reaction and ketalization, in one synthetic operation, was used for the synthesis of (+)-premnalane A. The first example of a singlet oxygen ene reaction that furnishes exclusively a Z-double bond is noted.
