✦ Synopsis


The regio-and stereoselective total synthesis of (+)-silphinene, an angular tricyclopentanoid sesquiterpene, was achieved starting from dicyclopentadiene. Recently sesquiterpenes having a carbon skeleton of three angularly-fused cyclopentanes have attracted

The cyclobutenic ester 1, readily available by thermal [2+2] cycloaddition of the silyl enol ether derived from cyclopentanone with ethyl propynoate, is easily transformed into the diquinanic alcohol 3 via the bicyclo [2.1.0] pentane intermediate 2. After protection as the thexyldimethylsilyl ether,
