Synthetic application of acylnitroso Diels-Alder derived aminocyclopentenols: total synthesis of (+)-streptazolin

J Org Chem. 2004 Dec 10;69(25):8836-41. doi: 10.1021/jo048606j.

Abstract

Concise total syntheses of (+)-streptazolin 1 and its more stable dihydro derivative 2 were accomplished via an intramolecular aldol condensation strategy starting from readily available aminocyclopentenol (-)-7. The synthetic sequence included reductive amination, stereoselective epoxidation, intramolecular aldol (and condensation) reaction, and Wittig reaction. The overall yield for dihydro derivative 2 from aminocyclopentenol (-)-7 was about 7% for a total of 14 steps.
