The de novo asymmetric synthesis of all possible stereoisomers of two polyketide natural products, avocadyne, avocadene, and the saturated variant avocadane, is described. The stereodivergent synthesis of the 12 congeners is accomplished in 4–6 steps from an achiral acylpyruvate derivative, which, in turn, is prepared in five steps from commercially available materials. The approach uses, sequentially
描述了两种聚酮化合物天然产物(阿瓦卡丁,阿伏卡汀和饱和变体阿瓦卡丹)的所有可能的立体异构体的从头不对称合成。12种同类物的立体发散合成是通过非手性酰丙酮酸衍生物以4–6步完成的,而该手性酰丙酮酸衍生物又是由市售材料以5步制备的。该方法依次使用Noyori不对称还原,β-羟基酮的非对映选择性螯合或定向还原,以及酯还原成伯醇。
