Abstract
The enantioselective total synthesis of the bioactive marine natural products pinnaic acid and halichlorine is reported in detail. Our total synthesis features the construction of the five-membered ring and C9 and C13 stereogenic centers through a palladium-catalyzed trimethylenemethane [3+2] cyclization; the installation of the nitrogen atom through a regioselective Beckmann rearrangement of a poorly reactive ketone; the stereoselective cyclization of the spiro ring through a four-step, one-pot hydrogenation-cyclization; and efficient connection of the sterically hindered lower chain through a reduced-pressure cross olefin metathesis reaction.
