J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2024;

Key words
(+)-strepsesquitriol - asymmetric hydrogenation - copper-promoted S
N2’ substitution - stereospecific [3+2] annulation - ring-closing metathesis
Significance
Han, Li and co-workers present the first asymmetric total synthesis of (+)-strepsesquitriol.
To access the bridged bicyclo[3.2.1]octane ring system, the authors developed a type
II intramolecular [3+2] annulation of allenylsilane.
Comment
The bicyclo[3.2.1]octane H was accessed through stereospecific [3+2] annulation of allenylsilane-ene G. Double Grignard addition followed by ring-closing metathesis afforded the fused
system M. Functional group adjustments and global deprotection completed the synthesis of
(+)-strepsesquitriol.
