Synthesis, Conformation, and Chirality of Di-O-methylsequirin D, a Biogenetically Novel Metabolite of Sequoia sempervirens

The synthesis of (+/-)-di-O-methylsequirin D (14; R=H) is reported.A Grignard reaction between 3,3-ethylenedioxypropylmagnesium bromide and deoxyanisoin gave the key alcohol (5), which was transformed into (14) by way of the acid (11) and tetralone (12).M

Synthesis of 5-p-Hydroxybenzyl-5,6-dihydro-2-naphthol, (+/-)-Sequirin D

A high-yield six-step synthesis of sequirin D (1a), a naturally occurring norlignan, is described.Michael addition of deoxyanisoin (2) to acrylonitrile gives a ketonitrile (3), which on Wolff-Kishner reduction is reduced and hydrolysed in situ to 4,5-bis-
