, p. 663 - 669 (1995)
In the synthesis of the title compound 12, the important intermediate 7 was obtained in good yield from the easily available ethyl 5,5-ethylenedioxy-2-oxocyclohexane-1-carboxylate (1) via ring enlargement of the bicyclic enol ether 5. Its reduction (NaBH4, CeCl3 in EtOH) and subsequent protection with (t-Bu)Me2Si resulted in the highly functionalized ten-membered lactone 9. Introduction of the (Z)-configurated double bond, followed by deprotection and elimination of H2O, gave (±)-pyrenolide B (12) in 16% overall yield.
Synthesis and Biological Activity of (+/-)-Pyrenolide B

, p. 3095 - 3098 (2007/10/02)
The synthesis and biological activity of (+/-)-pyrenolide B (1) and related compounds are described.The known (Z)-2-decen-9-olide (7) prepared via decan-9-olide (6) from 2-ethoxycarbonylcyclononanone (4) was converted to 9 by the deconjugative process, which, upon oxidation with m-chloroperbenzoic acid, led to the epoxy lactone 10.Base-promoted epoxide ring of 10 and subsequent oxidation furnished keto lactone 8, which, on treatment with phenylselenenyl chloride and subsequent oxidative elimination, provided (+/-)-pyrenolide B (1).The antimicrobial activity od (+/-)-1, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10a, 10b and 11a was examined against fungi and yeast.
