Abstract

Stereoselective total synthesis of (+)-anamarine and the first synthesis of 8-epi-(–)-anamarine, its nonnatural diastereomer, were achieved from readily available d -mannitol. The key reactions involved were asymmetric dihydroxylation, cross-metathesis and ring-closing metathesis reactions. The approach is adoptable advantageously for the diversity-oriented synthesis of several related classes of natural products.
