Abstract
A facile synthesis of C17α-OH-tigogenin, the aglycon of aspafiliosides E and F, is described. The crucial step is the spiroketal-forming cascade, which forms the rings EF in one step and provides a new strategy for spiroketal ring closure in steroidal sapogenins and other substrates. This synthesis minimizes redundant oxidation-reduction manipulations of previous syntheses.
