The stereoselective total synthesis of achaetolide 1 has been achieved and its absolute stereochemistry has been reconfirmed to be 3S,6R,7S,9R configuration. Keck allylation, Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation, and ring closing metathesis are the key steps involved in the target synthesis.
2-Deoxyribose as a rich source of chiral 5-carbon building blocks
Wang, Dengjin,Nugent, William A.
, p. 7307 - 7312 (2008/02/11)
(Chemical Equation Presented) We have developed concise routes to a number of useful chiral 5-carbon synthetic building blocks using readily available O-1-methyl-2-deoxyribose as starting material. Novel transformations include the use of indium triflate
Stereoselective synthesis of (+)-diplodialides-B, C and a formal synthesis of (+)-diplodialide-A by ring-closing metathesis approach
Sharma,Reddy, K. Laxmi
, p. 3197 - 3202 (2007/10/03)
Stereoselective synthesis of diplodialides-B and C and the formal synthesis of diplodialide-A are reported. A combination of Jacobsen's hydrolytic kinetic resolution and Sharpless epoxidation is used for the creation of two stereogenic centers, while a ring-closing metathesis strategy was used for the construction of the lactone ring.
