An Asymmetric Aldol−Ring-Closing Metathesis Strategy for the Enantioselective Construction of Oxygen Heterocycles: An Efficient Approach to the Enantioselective Synthesis of (+)-Laurencin
TL;DR: In this article, a strategy for the enantioselective construction of medium-ring cyclic ethers by merging the asymmetric aldol addition of glycolates with a ring-closing metathesis reaction is described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Asymmetric Aldol−Ring-Closing Metathesis Strategy for the Enantioselective Construction of Six- to Nine-Membered Oxygen Heterocycles
TL;DR: An efficient, general strategy for the asymmetric synthesis of sixto nine-membered cyclic ethers by reasoned that dienes with an appropriate acyclic conformational bias might allow eight (or nine)-membered ring formation and avoid the additional strain imposed by a fused ring attached to the newly formed cyclic olefin.
Journal ArticleDOI
An efficient, general asymmetric synthesis of carbocyclic nucleosides: Application of an asymmetric aldol/ring-closing metathesis strategy
TL;DR: A general and efficient synthesis of carbocyclic and hexenopyranosyl nucleosides has been developed using an asymmetric aldol addition and a Trost-type palladium(0)-mediated substitution to assemble the pseudosugar and the aromatic base.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ring closing metathesis for the formation of medium ring ethers: the total synthesis of (−)-isolaurallene
TL;DR: In this article, two approaches to the core nine-membered ether are presented both of which are based on a ring closing metathesis to close the cyclic ether, and the total synthesis of the marine metabolite (−)-isolaurallene is described.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Improved Synthetic Preparation of 3-Butenal
TL;DR: In this article, a convenient synthesis of 3-butenal from aqueous glyoxal and allyl bromide is described, which readily provides multigram quantities of 3 butenal.
