Redox Refunctionalization of Steroid Spiroketals. Structure Correction of Ritterazine M
The structure of the North spiroketal moiety of ritterazine M has been corrected from 1a to 1b. This was accomplished by comparison of published spectra of the natural product with five synthetic spiroketal−alcohols. Synthesis of these models was efficiently accomplished by reductive cleavage of the...

Summary: | The structure of the North spiroketal moiety of ritterazine M has been corrected from 1a to 1b. This was accomplished by comparison of published spectra of the natural product with five synthetic spiroketal−alcohols. Synthesis of these models was efficiently accomplished by reductive cleavage of the spiroketal and Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation of an isopentyl, methyl 1,1-disubstituted olefin, followed by Suarez iodine[III] oxidative spirocyclization of monoprotected 1°,3° 1,2 diols. |
