Abstract

A highly concise and efficient total synthesis of 2-epi-(–)-pachastrissamine is described utilizing a three-component tandem cross-metathesis–intramolecular S_N2′ substitution–cross-metathesis from the readily available alcohol (+)-8, wherein the substituted tetrahydrofuran formation and alkyl-chain extension are both accomplished in a one-pot manner. This route allows for direct access to pachastrissamines and their synthetic analogues at C(2).

Key words

total synthesis - tandem reaction - stereoselective synthesis - natural products - 2-epi-pachastrissamine
