Asymmetric, stereodivergent synthesis of (-)-clusianone utilizing a biomimetic cationic cyclization.


ABSTRACT: We report a stereodivergent, asymmetric total synthesis of (-)-clusianone in six steps from commercial materials. We implement a challenging cationic cyclization forging a bond between two sterically encumbered quaternary carbon atoms. Mechanistic studies point to the unique ability of formic acid to mediate the cyclization forming the clusianone framework.
