Abstract

A formal total synthesis of pactamycin (1) has been accomplished by face-selective and regioselective nitroso Diels-Alder (NDA) reaction of acyl nitroso compound 14, which contains a camphorsultam chiral auxiliary, and chiral cyclopentadiene 12. Construction of the chiral secondary alcohol of 12 was performed by (S,S)-Ts-DENEB catalyst-mediated reduction, and the NDA adduct 15a was readily converted to Johnson's intermediate 21.
