Abstract
The concise and convergent total syntheses of (+)- and (-)-Fumimycin have been achieved by taking advantage of strategies for the asymmetric aza-Friedel-Crafts reaction of a highly substituted hydroquinone and N-fumaryl ketimine generated from the corresponding dehydroalanine. The enantiomerically pure natural product and its enantiomer were prepared in seven steps and 22% overall yield by employing both enantiomers of a BINOL-derived chiral phosphoric acid (CPA) catalyst.
