High-Pressure Transformations in Natural Product Synthesis

Abstract

This review summarizes the application of high-pressure chemistry in natural product synthesis. By highlighting reactions that could not be promoted by conventional means but that proceed readily under high-pressure conditions, we intend to disclose the benefits of high-pressure-mediated reactions for organic transformations. The individual syntheses are classified by the reaction type of the key step and are discussed briefly.

1 Introduction

2 Cycloaddition Reactions

2.1 Diels–Alder Reactions

2.2 Inverse-Electron-Demand Diels–Alder Reactions

2.3 Hetero-Diels–Alder Reactions

3 Miscellaneous Reactions

4 Conclusion

Key words

high pressure - natural products - Diels–Alder reaction - total synthesis - asymmetric synthesis
