The total synthesis of (+/-)-biflora-4,10(19),15-triene is detailed which features a Diels-Alder strategy for elaboration of the four contiguous stereocenters at C(1), C(6), C(7), and C(11).

The stereoselective synthesis of dl-biflora-4,10(19),15-triene (1), a bicyclic diterpene component of the defense secretion of termite soldiers (Cubitermes umbratus), makes use of the regioselective Ireland-Claisen rearrangement of the Z-enolates of esters of 2,5-disubstituted 1,4-dien-3-ols.The synthetic scheme links the dienol Ireland-Claisen rearrangement with an intramolecular Diels-Alder closure; this strategy allows introduction of the four contiguous chiral centers with the desired relative stereochemistry.
ABSOLUTE CONFIGURATION OF (-)-BIFLORA-4,10(19),15-TRIENE, A DITERPENE FROM A TERMITE SOLDIER, AS DETERMINED BY THE SYNTHESIS OF ITS (1R, 6S, 7S, 11R-(+)-ISOMER

(1R, 6S, 7S, 11R)-(+)-Biflora-4, 10(19),15-triene was synthesized starting from (R)-(+)-citronellic acid.This enabled us to assign (1S, 6R, 7R, 11S)-stereochemistry to the naturally occuring (-)-enantiomer isolated from soldiers of the termite species Cubitermes umbratus.

Stereoselective total synthesis of (+/-)-obscuronatin, a marine diterpene with a 10-membered ring, has been achieved utilizing the anion-induced cyclization of an acyclic epoxy sulfide.The synthesis confirmed the stereostructure of the natural product.
