Abstract

A divergent enantioselective synthesis of (nor)-illudalane sesquiterpenes was designed by using a Pd-0-catalyzed asymmetric C(sp(3))-H arylation as a key step to control the isolated, highly symmetric quaternary stereocenter of the target molecules. A matched combination of chiral substrate and catalyst proved optimal to reach good levels of stereoselectivity. This approach enabled the synthesis of three (nor)illudalanes, including (S)-deliquinone and (S)-russujaponol F, which are synthesized for the first time in enantioenriched form. (AU)
