Abstract
The first enantioselective synthesis of the methyl ester of CPE, a potential intermediate in coronatine (COR) biosynthesis, is described. Comparison of the specific rotation of the synthetic ester with that of the methyl ester of natural CPE established that the latter possesses the (R) configuration. This configuration is the same as that found at the corresponding asymmetric center of coronatine. Structure: see text.
