Highly stereocontrolled synthesis of natural barbacenic acid, novel bisnorditerpene from Barbacenia flava.
Barbacenic acid, a bisnorditerpene with five contiguous asymmetric centers (four fully substituted), has been prepared for the first time through a highly stereocontrolled route in 5.2% overall yield from a known octalone. The synthesis serves to define the absolute configuration of the natural product.
