Abstract
AbstractHerein we report a structure‐unit‐based asymmetric total synthesis of sinulochmodin C, a norcembranoid diterpenoid bearing a transannular strained ether bridge β‐keto tetrahydrofuran moiety. Our synthetic route features an intramolecular double Michael addition to construct stereospecifically the [7,6,5,5] tetracyclic skeleton, a vinylogous hydroxylation/oxidation procedure or a stereospecific epoxide opening/oxidation sequence to establish the γ‐keto enone intermediate, a Lewis acid/Brønsted acid mediated transannular oxa‐Michael addition to fuse the β‐keto tetrahydrofuran moiety, a Mukaiyama hydration/Pd−C hydrogenation to reverse the C1‐configuration of the isopropenyl unit, and a bioinspired transformation of sinulochmodin C into scabrolide A.
