A highly enantioselective total synthesis of (+)-goniodiol.
A high-yielding enantioselective total synthesis of the bioactive styryllactone (+)-goniodiol has been realised, starting from readily available (S)-glycidol. A key step is an oxygen-to-carbon rearrangement of a silyl enol ether linked via an anomeric centre, facilitating the rapid and diastereosele...
