First total synthesis of murisolin

Abstract

The first and concise total synthesis of murisolin (1) was accomplished using asymmetric alkynylation and Sonogashira coupling as the key steps. The threo/trans/threo-type THF ring moiety was constructed with excellent stereoselectivity by asymmetric alkynylation of 1,6-heptadiyne to α-tetrahydrofuranic aldehyde, which was also prepared via the asymmetric alkynylation.
