title: Chemical modification of pseurotin A: one-pot synthesis of synerazol and pseurotin E and determination of absolute stereochemistry of pseurotin E.
abstract: Two natural products, synerazol and pseurotin E, were synthesized from the natural product pseurotin A in 58% and 57% yields, respectively in one-pot procedures. This work also establishes the absolute stereochemistry of pseurotin E.
