Total Synthesis of Peloruside A through Kinetic Lactonization and Relay Ring‐Closing Metathesis Cyclization Reactions

Abstract

Zentrale Elemente der hier vorgestellten konvergenten Totalsynthese von Pelorusid A (1) sind eine diastereoselektive Lactonisierung, um das C5–C9-Valerolacton aus dem C2-symmetrischen Keton 3 zu erhalten, sowie eine Staffel-Ringschlussmetathese mit dem Dehydrovalerolacton 2 als Produkt. Ein neues Isomer von 1, das Valerolacton Isopelorusid A (iso-1), wurde identifiziert. MOM=Methoxymethyl. Detailed facts of importance to specialist readers are published as ”Supporting Information”.
