Article Title: | Total synthesis and proof of stereochemistry of natural and unnatural pinnaic acids: A remarkable long-range stereochemical effect in the reduction of 17-oxo precursors of the pinnaic acids |
Abstract: | Build 'em up and knock 'em down: natural pinnaic acid and three of its stereoisomers were synthesized from the aldehydes described in the preceding communication. A key step in the synthesis of natural pinnaic acid was a highly stereoselective reduction of ketone 1. The stereochemistry was determined by means of degradation studies of the synthetic material; TBS = tert-butyldimethylsilyl. |
