Abstract
A stereoselective synthesis of the DEF-ring spirocyclic core of cyclopamine was accomplished using commercially available materials. The key steps in the synthesis were (i) the enantioselective vinylogous Mannich reaction, followed by lactamization to generate the piperidine F ring, and (ii) intramolecular oxidative dearomative spiroetherification to construct the DEF-ring spirocyclic core of cyclopamine. We found that the stereochemistry of the spirocyclization was controlled by the configuration of the methyl group (C-20) in the substrate.
