Abstract

The development of a convergent fragment coupling strategy for the enantioselective total syntheses of a group of rearranged spongian diterpenoids that harbor the cis-2,8-dioxabicyclo[3.3.0]octan-3-one unit is described. The key bond disconnection relies on a late-stage fragment coupling between a tertiary carbon radical and an electron-deficient alkene to unite two ring systems and form two new stereocenters, one of which is quaternary, in a stereoselective and efficient manner. This strategy is applied toward scalable 14-15 step syntheses of three rearranged spongian diterpenoids, cheloviolenes A and B, and dendrillolide C.
