An enantioselective synthesis of (3S,3aS,7aR)-wine lactone, a major aroma component of white wine and citrus juices, was achieved starting from (S)-2-methyl-3-butenoic acid. An intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction was employed as a key step.
(S)-2-甲基-3-丁烯酸为起始原料,通过分子内 Diels-Alder 反应作为关键步骤,实现了(3S,3aS,7aR)-酒石酸内酯的对映选择性合成,(3S,3aS,7aR)-酒石酸内酯是白葡萄酒和柑橘汁的主要香气成分。
