Total syntheses of a series of chromane natural products that contain a cyclobutane ring are described. A unified theme in the strategy employed for all these syntheses is an oxa-[3 + 3] annulation for constructing the chromane nucleus and a stepwise cationic [2 + 2] cycloaddition for the cyclobutane formation. More importantly, the two reactions could be rendered in tandem, thereby providing an expeditious approach to this family of natural products.
描述了一系列含有环丁烷环的色烷天然产物的全合成。在所有这些合成中采用的策略的一个统一主题是通过氧杂-[3 + 3] 环化反应构建色烷核,以及逐步的阳离子[2 + 2]环加成反应形成环丁烷。更重要的是,这两个反应可以串联进行,从而为这一系列天然产物提供了一种快速的合成方法。
