Stereoselective Total Syntheses of Leiocarpin A and (-)-Galantinic Acid Starting from D-Mannitol

Stereoselective total syntheses of leiocarpin A and (-)-galantinic acid, starting from D-mannitol as a chiral synthon, are described. The key steps involve stereoselective allylations, a Grignard reaction to control the required stereogenic centers, and ring-closing metathesis followed by intramolec...

Summary:Stereoselective total syntheses of leiocarpin A and (-)-galantinic acid, starting from D-mannitol as a chiral synthon, are described. The key steps involve stereoselective allylations, a Grignard reaction to control the required stereogenic centers, and ring-closing metathesis followed by intramolecular Michael addition.
