Abstract:First stereoselective total synthesis of (+)-diaportinol, (À )-peniisocoumarin H and (+)-& (À )-desmethyldiaportinol is demonstrated and their absolute stereochemistry was revised accordingly. A convergent approach has been developed that uses L-malic acid as chiral synthons for the synthesis of 2, and D-malic acid for 1 and 3. O,O-Dimethylorsellinic acid ester was prepared and coupled with Weinreb amide 6 or 6D via lateral lithiation carbonylation and a subsequent base catalyzed cyclization provided the isoch… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
