The jujubosides are saponin natural products reported to have immunoadjuvant, anticancer, antibacterial, antifungal, and antisweet activities. The triterpene component, jujubogenin contains a unique tricyclic ketal motif comprising the DEF ring system. Herein, we describe our efforts toward the total synthesis of jujubogenin, using a sterically-demanding intermolecular Diels-Alder reaction to assemble the C-ring and a tandem Wolff rearrangement-intramolecular ketene hetero-Diels-Alder reaction t ...[more]
