Direct Carbon--Carbon Bond Formation Through Reductive Soft-Enolization of α-Halothioesters and The Total Synthesis of (+)-Mefloquine
(2011)The direct addition of enolizable aldehydes and sulfonyl imines to α-halo thioesters to produce β-hydroxy/amino thioesters enabled by reductive soft enolization is reported. The transformation is operationally ... -
Direct Carbon-Carbon Bond Formation via Base Mediated and Reductive Soft Enolization of Thioesters, the First Asymmetric Total Synthesis of (+)- and (-)-Clusianone, and Progress Toward the Asymmetric Total Synthesis of Brasilicardin A
(2012)Three methodology studies and two total synthesis endeavors are presented. First, a study of Lewis acid and hydrogen bond mediated soft enolization of thioesters and their addition to imines in the Mannich reaction is reported. ...
