✦ Synopsis
A short, efficient and highly stereoselective synthesis of (-)-(R,R)-muricatacin is reported. The key steps include a highly diastereoselective reduction of a b-ketosulfoxide to a b-hydroxy sulfoxide, regio-and stereoselective bromohydration of an olefin employing the sulfinyl group as an internal nucleophile and chemoselective reduction of a double bond in the presence of a halogen atom.
