Abstract
A stereoselective synthesis of the diterpenoid oxepane (+)-zoapatanol is described. The key steps include a B-alkyl Suzuki cross-coupling reaction for the stereoselective synthesis of trisubstituted alkenes, creation of the two stereogenic centers on the oxepane ring by heterofunctionalization of an alkene through substrate control exploiting the nucleophilic potential of an intramolecular sulfinyl group, and transformation of a β-hydroxy sulfoxide into a terminal alkene.
