✦ Synopsis
A stereoisomer of ptychanolide 1 was synthesized by a method which includes an a-alkynone cyclization.
Ptychanolide, a sesquiterpenoid constituent of the Liverwort Ptychanthus striatus (Lehm. et Lindenb.) Nees isolated by Takeda et al.,' was shown by degradation to have structure 1, which contains the diquinane carbon skeleton 2 with four adjacent cis-located methyl group;. Recently, the structure was confirmed and the-configuration at the epoxy lactone moiety was determined by x-ray analysis.2
