A synthesis of (+)-decarestrictine L 1, a cholesterol biosynthesis inhibitory metabolite isolated from Penicillium simplicissimum, is described. Beginning from tri-O-acetyl-D-glucal, alkylation with trimethylaluminum introduced the axial methyl group at C-2 in a stereoselective fashion. Chain extension at the C-6 carbon was accomplished by generation of the primary tosylate, followed by displacement with cyanide anion. The synthesis of (+)-1 was completed in 13 steps and 6.3% overall yield. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

A Concise, Enantioselective Synthesis of (+)-Decarestrictine L from Tri-O-acetyl-d-glucal
We describe a new and efficient approach to the enantioselective synthesis of (+)-(2R,3S,6R)-decarestrictine L from commercially available tri-O-acetyl-d-glucal, based on a stereoselective Michael addition.
