Synthesis of (+)-Turmeronol A, an Inhibitor of Soybean Lipoxygenase, and (+)-ar-Turmerone

Syntheses of optically pure turmeronol A and turmerone were achieved in a simple manner starting from ethyl (R)-3-hydroxybutanoate (4) of 100percent e.e.The key step was the displacement of the chiral tosylate (6) with an organocopper reagent.

Absolute Configuration of Naturally Occuring (-)-Xanthorrhizol

The R-configuration (2) of (-)-xanthorrhizol, a phenolic sesquiterpene occuring in the rhizomes of Curcuma xanthorrhiza has been assigned by synthesis of (S)-(+)-xanthorrhizol (13) from (+)-ar-turmerone (3) of known configuration (S).
