A stereoselective total synthesis of (−)-cryptocaryol (<bold>1</bold>) is described. Key features the 17-step route include use three boron-mediated aldol reaction–reduction sequences to control all stereocenters and an Ando modification Horner–Wadsworth–Emmons olefination that permitted installation <italic>Z</italic> double bond α-pyrone ring.

Abstract Photopolymerisation, oder in anderen Worten die Nutzung von Licht als Auslöser einer Polymerisationsreaktion, ist eine der vielversprechendsten Technologien zur Herstellung anspruchsvoller Polymere. Eine Schlüsselkomponenten Photopolymerisation photoaktive Spezies. Diese Lage, durch Absorption aktive Verbindung zu generieren, welche Polymerisation Monomere einleitet und einen großen Einfluss auf Eigenschaften des finalen Produkts hat. In Vergangenheit war das Forschungsfeld...

The natural product (+)-cryptocaryol A is an α-pyrone containing a 1,3-polyol moiety that wasisolated in 2011 from the trees of Cryptocarya sp.(Figure 1). This compound able to stabilizePdcd4 (programmed cell death 4), tumorsuppressor protein inhibits transformation,migration, and invasion cancer cells vitro.This work aims synthesis C7−C31 fragment of(−)-cryptocaryol A.
