摘要:
An asymmetric synthesis of herbarumin III hits been developed using (R)-cyclohexylidene glyceraldehyde 1 as the chiral template. The key steps of the synthesis were the enantioselective preparation of the required homoallylic alcohol from 1, all asymmetric dihydroxylation, and a ring-closing metathesis reaction for the macrolactonization.
