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
<p>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. MgBr2*OEt2 and Hunig's base are used in concert with bul...
