Abstract
A new synthetic route for formation of a central cycloheptanone intermediate leading to the nortropane alkaloid calystegine B2 is described. The approach installs the desired ketone functionality directly in a ring-closing metathesis step. The target compound was prepared over 10 steps from commercially available methyl α-d-xylopyranoside.
