Total synthesis and stereochemical assignment of the spiroisoxazoline natural product (+)-calafianin.
Synthesis of the spiroisoxazoline natural product (+)-calafianin is reported using asymmetric nucleophilic epoxidation and nitrile oxide cycloaddition as key steps. Synthesis and spectral analysis of all calafianin stereoisomers led to unambiguous assignment of relative and absolute stereochemistry.
