Construction of the 1,2-Dialkenylcyclohexane Framework via Ireland-Claisen Rearrangement and Intramolecular Barbier Reaction: Application to the Synthesis of (±)-Geijerone and a Diastereoisomeric Mixture with Its 5-Epimer

The elemene-type terpenoids, which possess various biological activities, contain a syn- or anti-1,2-dialkenylcyclohexane framework. An efficient synthetic route to the syn- and anti-1,2-dialkenylcyclohexane core and its application in the synthesis of (±)-geijerone and its diastereomer is reported...
