Abstract
En 中文
An inverse-electron-demand Diels-Alder (IEDDA) reaction could complement the conventional normal-electron-demand Diels-Alder reaction in the synthesis of six-membered carbocycles. However, catalytic asymmetric all-carbon-based IEDDA reactions are underdeveloped. Herein, we disclosed a copper-catalyzed asymmetric IEDDA reaction using electron-deficient 3-carboalkoxyl-2-pyrones and electronically unbiased indenes as reactants. This method enables the rapid and enantioselective construction of a wide range of hexahydrofluorenyl bridged-lactone scaffolds. Using this method, asymmetric total syntheses of cephanolides A and B were accomplished.
