Application of the diastereoselective photodeconjugation of α,β-unsaturated esters to the synthesis of gymnastatin H

The asymmetric synthesis of gymnastatin H has been achieved by using the photoisomerisation of a conjugated ester to its β,γ-unsaturated isomer through the protonation of a in situ generated dienol as key step. Thanks to diacetone D-glucose used as a chiral alkoxy group, the protonation occurred wel...
