Stereospecificity in Intramolecular Photoredox Reactions of Naphthoquinones: Enantioselective Total Synthesis of (−)‐Spiroxin C

Abstract

Intramolecular photoredox reactions of naphthoquinone derivatives were found to proceed in a stereospecific manner. This method was used as a basis for the enantioselective total synthesis of (-)-spiroxin C.
