Abstract

We describe a concise and straightforward approach to the total syntheses of (+)-Strictifolione and Cryptofolione in the longest linear sequences of four steps and six steps from 3-phenyl propanal and trans-cinnamaldehyde, respectively. The route utilized a titanium tetraisopropoxide/(R)-[1,1'-binaphthalene]-2,2'-diol catalyzed Mukaiyama aldol reaction, indium(0)-promoted Barbier reaction, and olefin cross-metathesis as the key reactions.
