Total Synthesis of Patulone: A Natural Xanthonoid Possessing a Geminally Diisoprenylated Structure
Synlett(2023)
Abstract
The first total synthesis of patulone, a plant metabolite possessing a unique 1,1-diisoprenyl-1H-xanthene-2,9-dione structure, is described. Starting from a 1-fluroxanthone derivative with suitable substitution pattern, the pivotal gem-diisoprenylation was efficiently accomplished by implementing twice the sequence of addition of isoprenyl Grignard reagent to the carbonyl at C9 and anion-accelerated oxyCope rearrangement.
