Abstract:Diastereoselective syntheses of [4.4]-and [4.5]-spiroketal featured tonghaosu analogs were explored. An excellent diastereoselectivity was achieved for [4.5]-spiroketals due to anomeric, steric, and perhaps p-p interactions; [4.4]-spiroketal could be obtained in good diastereoselectivity by tuning substituted pattern of the tetrahydrofuran ring. Spiroketals as characteristic segments have been found in many natural products isolated from a number of sources such as insects, microbes, plants, fungi, and marine … Show more
