Abstract

An efficient and concise synthesis of the biologically interesting (+)‐machaeriol B (2) and its enantiomer 5 was accomplished from O‐phenylhydroxylamine (7) in four steps (Scheme 2). In addition, the first total synthesis of natural (+)‐machaeriol C (3) and its enantiomer 6 was achieved from the readily available ester 15 in eight steps (Scheme 4). The key strategies in the syntheses of 2 and 5 involved benzofuran formation through a [3,3]‐sigmatropic rearrangement and trans‐hexahydrodibenzopyran formation by a domino aldol‐type/hetero‐Diels–Alder reaction. In the case of 3 and 6, the key steps were stilbene formation by a Horner–Wadsworth–Emmons reaction and trans‐hexahydrodibenzopyran formation by domino reactions.
