Our approach relied on the four step-economical synthetic methods developed in our laboratory:(1) the cis-diastereoselective reductive dehydroxylation of hemiaminals;(2) the direct amide/lactam reductive alkylation;(3) the one-pot N,O-bisdebenzylation-N-methylation; and(4) the one-step synthesis of malimide from malic acid. Both total syntheses are quite concise, which have been achieved in six steps, and gave overall yields of 25.7% and 27.6%, respectively.展开更多
(+)-Preussin (1) and its 5-epimer were synthesized from the divinylcarbinol (3) with Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation of 3 and the oxidative cyclization of 9 with PDC as the key steps.
