β¦ Synopsis
A formal synthesis of (+)-brefeldin A has been achieved v/a stereoselective construction of hydroxycyclopentane skeleton possessing the requisite hydroxyheptenyl side chain. The highly advanced intermediate 2 has been synthesized from the known Weinreb amide in 19 % overall yield of 11 steps.

Enantioconvergent Formal Synthesis of Brefeldin A via Sakai-Catalyzed Cyclization. -A formal total synthesis of the antitumor agent brefeldin A (XII) is presented by asymmetric synthesis of intermediate (XI). Key steps are the asymmetric Sakai cyclization of racemic pentenal (I) and the reductive a
An effective and enantioselective process for the total synthesis of (+)-brefeldin A (1) is described which start8 from the dextrorotatory ketone 2. Bmfeldin Al (1) has long been known to exhibit an extraordinary range of biological activities including antibiotic, antiviral, cytostatic and antimit
