An enantioselective total synthesis of the apoptosis-inducing natural product, (-)-rasfonin, is described. Camphor lactam-mediated asymmetric alkylation reactions enabled the installation of three stereogenic centers with >95:5 diastereoselectivity. A modified Corey-Peterson olefination was employed in the construction of the (E,E)-diene system. A highly diastereoselective, asymmetric vinylogous Mukaiyama aldol addition was conducted using a chiral cationic oxazaborolidine catalyst. The pyranone core of the natural product was prepared via a DBU-promoted rearrangement of a furanol to its corresponding pyranol with concomitant [1,4]-silyl transfer. Copyright
Facile preparation and functionalization of chiral stabilized ylides from common chiral auxiliaries using triphenyl-phosphoranylideneketene (the Bestmann ylide) and their use in Wittig reactions

Camphor-derived lactams and other related chiral controllers have been found to react with the Bestmann ylide (triphenyl-phosphoranylideneketene) upon heating in toluene. The resulting parent ylides provide convenient access to a structurally diverse set
