Divergent Enantioselective Total Synthesis of Siphonarienal, Siphonarienone, and Pectinatone. Issue 10 (16th October 2013) - Yadav, Jhillu Singh
Abstract A divergent synthesis of siphonarienal, siphonarienone, and pectinatone has been achieved from a common precursor 4, which was synthesized by using an enzymatic desymmetrization approach. The major key steps involved were Grignard reaction, Wittig reaction, Evans' asymmetric alkylation, and base‐catalyzed cyclization.
