Journal ArticleDOI
A Unified Strategy for the Stereocontrolled Construction of Structurally Unusual Sesquiterpene Lactones. Asymmetric Synthesis of Vulgarolide and Deoxocrispolide
TL;DR: In this paper, the bicyclic ketone (+)-17b reacts with vinylmagnesium bromide from its exo face, thus enabling exploitation of the anionic oxy-Cope rearrangement and direct alkylation of the enolate so formed with ethyl iodoacetate to provide 24 in an efficient, stereocontrolled manner.

Synthesis of Stereoisomeric Medium-Ring α,α‘-Dihydroxy Cycloalkanones
TL;DR: The stereochemical course of the epoxidation of silyl enol ethers of 2-tert-butyldimethylsilyloxycycloheptanone and -cyclooctanone has been investigated and shown to proceed exclusively anti to the existing α-substituent as discussed by the authors.
