Abstract

Abstract: Divergent total syntheses of the enmein‐type natural products (−)‐enmein, (−)‐isodocarpin, and (−)‐sculponin R have been achieved in a concise fashion. Key features of the strategy include 1) an efficient early‐stage cage formation to control succeeding diastereoselectivity, 2) a one‐pot acylation/akylation/lactonization to construct the C‐ring and C8 quarternary center, 3) a reductive alkenylation approach to construct the enmain D/E rings and 4) a flexible route to allow divergent syntheses of three natural products. Abstract : Kurze und divergente Totalsynthesen der Naturstoffe (−)‐Enmein, (−)‐Isodocarpin und (−)‐Sculponin R werden vorgestellt. Die gemeinsame Zwischenstufe der Synthesen hat eine halbgeschlossene Käfigstruktur.
