Article Title: | An efficient stereoselective total synthesis of DL-sesquicillin, a glucocorticoid antagonist |
Abstract: | The key step in the total synthesis of sesquicillin (3) is a stereoselective Claisen rearrangement of 1 to afford 2. The synthesis also features an efficient sequence to install an α-pyrone moiety in a hindered environment; TBS = tert-butyldimethylsilyl. |
