Total synthesis of polygalolide A

Org Lett. 2011 Dec 16;13(24):6532-5. doi: 10.1021/ol2028256. Epub 2011 Nov 17.

Abstract

The total synthesis of polygalolide A was accomplished through intramolecular C-glycosylation of glucal modified with siloxyfuran. The siloxyfuran group and siloxy substituent at the C-3 position played crucial roles in allowing direct access to the highly substituted oxabicyclo[3.2.1] core skeleton with correct quaternary stereogenic centers.
