(+/-)-Phyllanthocin has been synthesized through a key step involving the enelike reaction of an aldehyde with 2-methoxypropene recently developed in these laboratories. This work demonstrates that our chemistry is suitable for multistep synthetic applications, and it shows that stereocontrol in the creation of the phyllanthocin structure may be achieved by thermodynamic equilibration of both peripheral stereogenic carbons.
