✦ Synopsis


Preparation of the "Ziegler key intermediate" 2from lactone 3, readily obtained from hydroxy-O-ionone, was studied. In a first exploratory approach, lactones 11 and 13 were obtained but further transformations aimed at setting the ring junction were unsuccessful due to unexpected rearrangements. Through a straightforward synthetic sequence involving two new rearrangements, lactone 3 was converted to diosphenol 21 with the desired trans A/B ring junction. 21 was in turn transformed into the well-known acetonide 2 in a good yield. This constitutes a new formal total synthesis offorskolin.

The Ziegler intermediate 2, previously used in three total syntheses of forskolin (1) has been synthesized efficiently from enone 3. The key transformation of this sequence is the early and stereoselective introduction of the C-6, C-7 oxygen functional groups present in the natural product. The hig

An enantioselective route for the total synthesis of forskolin, a potent activator of adenylate cyclase, has been developed which is based on reduction of dienone 3 to the (S)-alcohol4 and conversion in two steps to tricyclic lactone 9, obtained in optically pure form simply by recrystallization.
