Abstract

The total synthesis of (±)-biflora-4,10(19),15-triene is detailed which features a Diels-Alder strategy for elaboration of the four contiguous stereocenters at C(1), C(6), C(7), and C(11).

Abstract

(1R, 6S, 7S, 11R)-(+)-Biflora-4, 10(19),15-triene was synthesized starting from (r)-(+)-citronellic acid. This enabled us to assign (1S), 6R, 7R, (11S)-stereochemistry to the naturally occurring (-)-enantiomer isolated from soldiers of the termite species Cubitermes umbratus.
