Total Synthesis of β-Santalol
Solas, Dennis,Wolinsky, Joseph
, p. 1988 - 1991 (1983)
A synthesis of β-santalol (2) is described by using camphenesultone (4) as the starting material.Alkylation of the sultone 4 with the tetrahydropyranyl ether of 2-bromoethanol (11) followed by reaction with phenyllithium and desulfurization with sodium amalgam produced the monoprotected diol 16.The intermediate 1 was converted to bicycloekasantalal which has been previously transformed into β-santalol (2).
