Abstract :
Enantioselective preparation of the six-membered ring of pachyclavulide B, a briarane-type diterpenoid, was achieved. The key step is desymmetrization of an achiral symmetric substrate by enantiogroup- and diastereoselective epoxidation. The asymmetric epoxidation proceeded with up to 99% de and 94% ee.
